The Association of Boxing Commissions will soon discuss declaring a fighter who leans on the ground with any part of his body other than their feet and hands to be a grounded fighter.
That is, touching the canvas with the palm of the hand will not be enough, and the oppone♏nt can be kicked or kneed in the head, if they do not touch the canvas with the elbow, knee, or any other part of the body.
The fight between Russian Movsar Evloev and Briton Arnold Allen is a case in point. If the changes are approved, the actions of Allen, who delivered four banne🔥d knee strikes to Evloev's head, will be considered legal.
Recall that Evloev and Allen met in the octagon on January 21 in Toronto, Canada, at the UFC 297 tournament. This fight lasted the entire distance and ended in Movsar's favor by unanimous decision of the judges. He has 18 wins and no losses on his re๊cord in mixed martial arts. Arnold has 19 wins and thre𒆙e losses.
