No one is debating that it wasn't legal.

You're right. You should protect yourself at all times. That's what makes the glove tap in the 1st round the more genuine and authentic of the sportsmanlike gestures. You're offering up your respect at a time of vulnerability - there's an unspoken covenant that you won't be suckered at that moment.

That's the lame part of it - that covenant was broken. Not any "rule" just an unspoken bond and understanding.
