Bought alfa shoes "for English Boxing"??

Nope. If you turn your back on your opponent in boxing it's seen as a sign of surrender & the ref will stop the fight & either disqualify you or award the fight to your opponent by TKO.

I never knew that. Wow, not even a warning? Cool

Well, it would be up to the discretion of the referee. In the amateurs, especially in the novice divisions where the ref knows that the fighters are just beginners, the ref my give a stern warning & take a point away the first time. But, a second time would def result in a DQ or a RSC ( referee stopped content ) loss.
In the pros? Automatic TKO loss.

Isn't it confusing given that bareknuckle boxing is back on the rise? And bareknuckle boxing historically was outdoors

HE'LL NAH!!!

 

[ironkhan57]

correct.

Lol, and I'm confused what this thread is about now. Idk if it's about boxing shoes or English boxing? But one thing professor @spacetime didn't know is boxing was bare knuckle first in greece.

I'm pretty sure the incorporated gloves on English boxing in the 20's or 30's if I'm not mistaken?

marques of queensbury rules, a.k.a gloved boxing was invented in england.
