glove touching is optional and there are no rules governing it. every show i judge has a different view of it, but the thing they all have in common is that there are no rules about how to, when to, or what happens when they actually engage in it. plus theres the universal understanding that once u touch its game on. just because these other fighters like to break after the gloves touch doesnt mean thats the rule ya know? she shouldve been ready, and the fact that she got knocked out didnt really have to do with the glove touch since she clearly engaged and was knocked out in the clinch. imo its just some chick and her team getting pissed cuz the got caught sleepin. just sayin

When you go up to the ref he usually makes the fighters touch gloves before sending them in their corners...
I think it's a bit unnecessary to do it again and you shouldn't be bitching about it if you get caught.
Dirty yeah kinda, illegal no

touching gloves again. then backing up and then start fighting...i don't like it. you're in a cage fight. respect, honor, ok, but you're still in a fight. i love when they go at it from the get go. go for a possible record ko.

Dirtydirty. I say dont do it. I got sucker punched my second fight. The guy seemed nice too. He kept talking to me before the fight. Seemed like a cool dude. I dont think you see it as much in pros, but obviously it still happens.

Ya that's a dick move...It may not be illegal but you def lose respect...
-
way dirty and disresptful. word gets out that you do that kinda crap and you soon find it difficult to get on any legit promotors fight card. Just wave of the dam glove touch if you want to get to the fighting.

very lame, cheap, no respect...

I didnt even see her touch. If you are walking to the center of the ring with your hand out like a good sport and your angry opponent is moving towards you hands cocked and chin down, you might want to remember that a fight just started. Also after the initial barage, she could have jumped out, but no she stayed swingin in the pocket and ate the hook.
-
Dirty but if its not illegal whats the big deal? 4oz gloves hurt! Its a fist fight so be friends after not before and not during.

Always protect yourself but I def lose some respect for a fighter that gets in that cheap shot
