Boxing: Most Popular Articles: Olympics - Boxing Rules

Boxing: Most Popular Articles These articles are the most popular over the last month. // via fulltextrssfeed.com

Olympics - Boxing Rules Jul 29th 2012, 11:10 Only men's competition. No women's competition. Boxers qualify for the Olympics through performances at regional tournaments in Europe, Asia, the Americas, Africa and Oceania. The number of boxers accepted from any region depends upon the strength of boxing in that region and varies between weight divisions. The boxers are paired off at random for the Olympic Games, without regard to ranking. They fight in a single-elimination tournament, with the winner advancing to the next round and the loser dropping out of the competition. Winning boxers progress through the preliminary rounds to the quarterfinals and semifinals. The two semifinals winners fight for the gold and silver medals, while both losing semifinalists receive bronze medals. Bouts consists of a total of four rounds. Each round is two minutes in length with a one-minute interval between each round. Contests are won by knockout or on points. A point is awarded for a scoring hit with marked part of the glove on the opponent's head (side or front) or body (above the belt). A panel of five judges decides which hits are scoring hits. Judges each have two buttons before them, one for each boxer, and they press the appropriate button when they believe a boxer delivers a scoring hit. An electronic scoring system registers a point whenever three or more judges press the button for one boxer within a second of each other. No point is awarded for a hit unless three of the five judges agree. When two boxers trade blows in a flurry of infighting, where no full-force punches can land, the judges wait until the end of the exchange and award a point to the boxer who got the better of it. At the end of the bout, when each judge's points have been totaled, the boxer awarded the most points by a majority of the judges is declared the winner. If two boxers end up with the same number of points, the judges decide a winner by assessing such factors as which of the two took the lead and showed better style. If the judges determine those factors to be even, they turn to which competitor showed better defense. Punches to an opponent's arms do not score points. Punches that are judged to have no force behind them do not score points. When a boxer commits a foul, he faces a caution, a warning or, in extreme cases, disqualification. Two cautions for a particular offence mean an automatic warning, and three warnings of any kind mean disqualification. Some of the more common fouls include hitting below the belt, holding, pressing an arm or elbow into the opponent's face, forcing the opponent's head over the ropes, hitting with an open glove, hitting with the inside of the glove and hitting the opponent on the back of the head, neck or body. Others include passive defense, not stepping back when ordered to break, speaking offensively to the referee and trying to hit the opponent immediately after the order to break. During a bout, a boxer is considered down if, as a result of being hit, he touches the floor with any part of his body besides his feet. He also is down if he is even partly outside the ropes or hanging on them helplessly from being hit, or if he still is standing but is judged to be unable to continue. When a boxer is down, the referee starts counting from one to 10 seconds. The count now is timed electronically, with a beep sounding for each number, but referees often still choose to call them out. The referee also is required to signal the count to the downed boxer by holding a hand in front of him and counting with his fingers. If the boxer is still down after the 10 seconds, the opponent wins on a knockout. Even if a boxer gets back on his feet immediately, he is obliged to take a mandatory eight-count. After the eight seconds, the referee will give the command "Box" if he feels the match should continue. If the boxer gets to his feet but falls again without receiving another blow, the referee starts counting at eight. A boxer who is down and being counted can be saved by the bell only in the final round of the final. In all other rounds and bouts, the count continues after the bell sounds. If any boxer takes three counts in one round or four counts in the bout, the referee will stop the fight and declare the opposing boxer the winner. Read more at Olympic Boxing main page

Boxing: What's Hot Now: Greatest Moments

Boxing: What's Hot Now These articles that had the largest increase in popularity over the last week // via fulltextrssfeed.com

Greatest Moments Jul 28th 2012, 11:01 Everyone will have a different list, but here are a half-dozen of the greatest moments in Olympic boxing history (in chronological order): 1. St. Louis, 1904: Oliver Kirk wins the bantamweight and featherweight divisions to become the only fighter to win two titles at a single Games. Note: The sweet science made its Olympic debut at the 1904 Games, with the United States winning all seven Golds and 19 of the 21 total medals available. 2. Melbourne, 1956: Southpaw Laszlo Papp became the first man to win three Olympic boxing titles (Cubans Teofilo Stevenson and Felix Savon later joined the club). Papp won at middleweight in 1948 and earned Gold at light middleweight in 1952 and 1956. 3. Rome, 1960: The world was introduced to a brash 18-year-old named Cassius Clay at the 1960 Games. But winning the light heavyweight Gold medal was only the beginning. After turning pro, Clay would change his name to Muhammad Ali and become the most recognized man on the planet. 4. Tokyo, 1964: Heavyweight Buster Mathis qualified to represent the U.S. at 1964 Games but was forced to withdraw with a broken knuckle. Mathis' misfortune opened the door for Joe Frazier, who went on to win the only Gold for the U.S. at those Olympics. Frazier edged West Germany's Hans Huber in the final despite fighting with a broken hand. 5. Mexico City, 1968: George Foreman didn't have much amateur experience but that didn't stop him from qualifying for the U.S. team. At the Games, the 19-year-old Foreman won the heavyweight Gold medal and then won hearts by parading around the ring with a tiny American flag. 6. Montreal, 1976: The U.S., fielding one it of its greatest teams, won five Gold medals. Sugar Ray Leonard, fighting with photos of his girlfriend and young son pinned to his socks, won at light welterweight and then did what he would do numerous times as a pro: RETIRE! Brothers Michael Spinks and Leon Spinks won Gold at middleweight and light heavyweight. Leo Randolph and Howard Davis Jr. also brought home the Gold for the U.S at the 1976 Games.
