But there’s no need to worry UFC fans, as you’ll get a familiar show with the TUF nations finale as the Quebec commission has a track record of telling officials to neglect their actual policies when the big show pertains to town.

What differences do Quebec’s actual policies have from the Unified Rules?  They include the following peculiarities:

The Definition:

195.1.  

“mixed boxing” indicates a combat sport during which contestants of the same sex fight standing or on the mat; when they fight standing, the contestants use kickboxing techniques unless modified in this Chapter; when they fight on the mat, the only permitted submission techniques are those described in this Chapter.

The Knockdown Rule:

195.9.  Where a contestant has been knocked down, the referee shall instruct the opponent to retire to the farthest corner, which the referee shall indicate by pointing.

The referee may stop the bout and declare the opponent the winner when a contestant is no longer able to defend himself adequately.

No Strikes to the Knee:

195.13.  Where a contestant receives a blow to the genitals or to the knee, the referee may interrupt Camiseta Brighton & Hove Albion FC the bout and allow up to 5 minutes for recovery.

If the contestant does not continue the bout after that delay, the referee shall:

 (1)    following a blow to the genitals, indicate that the contestant has lost by Camiseta Newcastle United abandonment;

 (2)    following a blow to the knee, disqualify his opponent.

 

The Judging Criteria:

195.18.  The judge shall base his decision on the effectiveness of the contestants, taking into account the following factors:

  (1)    a blow struck to any prone part of the body;

  (2)    aggressiveness, as demonstrated by the contestant’s forcing the fight during the round by making the greater number of attacks;

  (4)    defence by skillful evasions and parries; and

  (12)    hitting an opponent with the bent knee or bent elbow;

No Standing Chokes or Submissions:

195.28.  When the contestants are fighting, each of the following acts constitutes a foul:

  (20)    grabbing an opponent by the throat.

195.30.  Where opponents are battling on the mat, arm or leg holds as well as strangulation are permitted.
