Wellll... the fact is ya gotta keep yer head up on accounta it's the "rules". As far as a rule saying ya don't hafta carry the weight of the bigger man, fine. But "diving" to the mat and looking at the ref (did you notice how MANY times Haye "looked at the ref"?) is just ludicrous. He was warned and finally given an 8.

Refs will always call such head down tactics as that leads to the possibilty of head butting which is HIGHLY illegal in any boxing ring in the world. Head up at all times unless you are without of range of hitting your opponent with your head. Bobbing and weaving? Fine. Bobbing and battering ramming... no way!

Anyway, the long and short of it is the FAR better BOXER won by MANY points.
