I actually like the standing 8 count. I think it takes a bit of pressure off the Ref . I believe that some referees wait to long because they just don't know what to do ! Its takes the pressure of stopping a fight too early, as well as the pressure of stopping a fight to late out of the equation ! and makes for a safer over all match .

The mouth piece needs to be washed off the first time . the second time a point needs to be deducted.

Excessive holding needs to be dealt with as with any flagrant foul.. a warning for the first time.. points taken away there after.. if your tired and fatigued in a match , you should have trained harder simple as that. Fatigue is what’s known as a personal problem.

Just my opinions.. CC all around..in 24 for everyone that didnt get one,,! nice thread sweetpea !
