Cn you lose a point for not engaging in the fight?

[PalmStrike]

How would everyone feel if Reyes had lost a point due to not engaging Jon in the 5th round?

 

[Naught2Sixty]

It's not Pride dawg.

 

[NoBiasJustMMA]

Refs can do that but that would have been an insane thing to do.

 

[Russie]

There has to be some advance warnings and if it continues then a point can be deducted. I've seen fights where it should've happened and didn't.

 

[Taric]

I remember in the Anderson/Maia fight Dan Miragliotta warned and pushed Anderson to get him towards Maia to stop goofing off.

 

[Fahcough]

Yes. Maia the king of point deduction of refusing to get up and fight.

Reyes landed 21 significant strikes in the 5th round.

Defense is never a problem. Lack of offense is.

 

[Fedor5723]

It's not Pride dawg.

Yeah. If it was Reyes would've had a million yellow cards.

 

[Blanqa Blanqua]

Yeah well that'd be fine cos Jones would have lost about 15 points for literally running away in the first 3 rounds aye

Sure. Also deduct a point from Jon for every time he ran from Reyes
