Welcome to the World Boxing Association!
About:
This rp is, well, obviously about boxing, in America. I like the sport and have been watching it for a bit now, but I wanted to make it about more than just fighting. I wanted to include the fighters everyday lives, the struggles and obstacles they overcome each and everyday of their lives, and about any troubles in their past that drove them to fight.
Forum Rules:
•No Godmodding or Powerplaying. I understand if your character is a skilled fighter, but let them get hurt every once in a while.
•Please skip if two characters decide to get frisky. Basically try to keep it around PG-13 at least.
•No Mary Sues or Gary Stues. Give them some physical/mental flaws.
•Keep OOC fighting out of the thread. Move it to PM and settle it there.
•Please try to be literate and post at least three or four lines or sentences. I used to have a bad habit of doing one liners, but I became more advanced. If you want to post a paragraph feel free to do so.
•Same Gender romances are fine.
•Use (), [], or {} when speaking OOC
•Please be active especially if you have character with a important role. Try to post as much as you can and let me know if you are going to be gone.
•And, as always, have fun! What's the point of rping if we aren't having any fun?!
Boxing Rules:
The rules of boxing vary from jurisdiction to jurisdiction, and on whether it is an amateur or professional bout. A violation of the following rules is considered a foul, and can result in a warning, point deduction, or disqualification by the referee:
•You cannot hit below the belt, hold, trip, kick, headbutt, wrestle, bite, spit on, or push your opponent.
•You cannot hit with your head, shoulder, forearm, or elbow.
•You cannot hit with an open glove, the inside of the glove, the wrist, the backhand, or the side of the hand.
•You cannot punch your opponent's back, or the back of his head or neck (rabbit punch), or on the kidneys (kidney punch).
•You cannot throw a punch while holding on to the ropes to gain leverage.
•You can't hold your opponent and hit him at the same time, or duck so low that your head is below your opponent's belt line.
•When the referee breaks you from a clinch, you have to take a full step back; you cannot immediately hit your opponent--that's called "hitting on the break" and is illegal.
•You cannot spit out your mouthpiece on purpose to get a rest.
•If you score a knockdown of your opponent, you must go to the farthest neutral corner while the referee makes the count.
•If you "floor" your opponent, you cannot hit him when he's on the canvas.
•A floored boxer has up to ten seconds to get back up on his feet before losing the bout by knockout.
•A boxer who is knocked down cannot be saved by the bell in any round, depending upon the local jurisdiction's rules.
•A boxer who is hit with an accidental low blow has up to five minutes to recover. If s/he cannot continue after five minutes, s/he is considered knocked out.
•If the foul results in an injury that causes the fight to end immediately, the boxer who committed the foul is disqualified.
•If the foul causes an injury but the bout continues, the referee orders the judges to deduct two points from the boxer who caused the injury.
•If an unintentional foul causes the bout to be stopped immediately, the bout is ruled a "no contest" if four rounds have not been fully completed. (If the bout was scheduled for four rounds, then three rounds must have been completed.) If four rounds have been completed, the judges' scorecards are tallied and the fighter who is ahead on points is awarded a technical decision. If the scores are even, it will be called a "technical draw."
•If a boxer is knocked out of the ring, he gets a count of 20 to get back in and on his feet. He cannot be assisted.
•In some jurisdictions the standing eight-count or the three knockdown rule also may be in effect.
•In other jurisdictions, only the referee can stop the bout.
