Referee Refuses To Disqualify Boxer Who Bit Opponent

However, the boxer wasn't disqualified for the bite and instead, was just docked a mere point, which has left some fans up in arms.

Biting isn't at all allowed during boxing matches and fighters have in the past been suspended, fined and even immediately taken out of fights on occurrence.

Fans took to Twitter to comment on the decision, with one fan noting: "Point deduction? Should be disqualified with a ban. Kash Ali got a 6 month ban for the same and a possible fine if a remember correctly."

Before the fight, Ali noted: "This is my time to show all the boxing people that I’m not here to mess about. Beating someone like David will put me straight in the mix. It’s a great opportunity to show my skills, and show that I’m a real contender".

Ali was disqualified as Price won the night and reportedly declined Ali's request for a rematch.

As such, many were confused as to why Demaria was only deducted one point.

Meanwhile, others just responded with a picture of Mike Tyson laughing, seemingly a reference to Tyson infamously biting a chunk out of Evander Holyfield's ear during the third round of their 1997 match.

Tyson was referencing the fact that Holyfield dominated the opening of their fight. Tyson actually bit Holyfield twice during the fight, the first time he got a two point deduction but then he went for the other ear moments later, earning him the disqualification.

Many also couldn't wrap their heads around why Demario bit his opponent in the first place, when he had already beaten Vargas to the floor twice during the fight.

The night also saw Haven Brady Jr. take to the ring, where he continued to advance his pro record to six wins, finishing with opponent Jose Argel in the fourth round.
