    Yesterday I was watching England vs Cuba (forgot the weight) and the English guy landed a clear body punch with great form just like a J.C. Chavez body punch where you can even hear the sound and guess what, CERO POINT! What the hell?! There are some clear punches I didn’t see anyone getting points on other fights.

    I haven't seen a body shot score a point yet, I have not watched all the fights but have seen some decent ones dug in but they never seem to score. Seems to be an ongoing thing with amateur boxing.

    Same here, maybe they're blind to body shots or just retarded

    Yeah I've seen guys get their heads snapped back and staggered and still no point, also I've see people get points for cerrar.
    For every story told that divides us, I believe there are a thousand untold that unite us.
