Sorta like the state high school champ football team that did every nasty in the book, but didn't get caught.
Hence they won the state championship every year!
So the rules are not about equity, morality, or fairness, but bloody bare knuckle fist fights that draw crowds to the circus and folks paying admission to view and brawl.
Oh the sport of it all!
