Shoot Boxing - Fouls

Fouls

Foul play is recognized as the following ① to ⑬. After a warning, the fighter will receive a point deduction for further infractions. If the same fighter commits another foul, another point is deducted, and a final warning is given. If a third warning is given to the same fighter, he is disqualified and loses the fight. If the referee feels that it was not a flagrant foul, he may allow the fight to continue.

  • 2:Striking the opponent in the groin.
  • 3:Biting the opponent.
  • 4:Attacking the opponent while he is falling, or when he is getting up.

    • a) If a fighter ever accuses the judges of not being impartial, points are to be immediately deducted.
    • b) The act of ducking the head low and diving into the opponent in such a manner that appears similar to a headbutt.

When either fighter receives a cut from a headbutt, the fighter that made the cut receives a point deduction, even if the headbutt was accidental. If the referee decides that the headbutt was intentional, the fighter receives a two point deduction.

    • c) Repeated holding which does not appear to be an attack, nor an attempt to escape attacks, will be subject to point deductions after warnings from the referee.

"An attempt to escape attacks" is defined as the act whose intent is to interrupt the opponent's offense or defense by grappling immediately after an attack.

  • 1:When there is intentional foul play, and the referee declares a disqualification for the action.
  • 2:When the fighter does not obey the referee.
  • 3:If a fighter cannot continue when the round begins.
  • 4:When a fighter's attitude is overly rough or violent, with the intent to cause bodily harm above and beyond what is considered to be necessary to compete.
