The goal of boxing is to hit the most direct hits on the opponent, and in the end the judges make a vote between them until reaching a verdict on which of the athletes made more points with the blows.
\nThere are other ways to win, and they are:
\n\u2013 Have an opponent fall 2 to 3 times on the canvas in the same round (the number depends on the competition);
\n\u2013 Knock out, when the opponent lands on the ground or rests on the ropes, and the referee counts up to 10 and the athlete can not stand up at that time;
\n\u2013 The referee may also score a technical knockout. This happens when one of the boxers is taking with many consecutive blows and the referee considers that he is not able to receive them;
\n\u2013 Lastly, one of the assistants can throw the towel to the floor, meaning that they are giving up the fight;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
