Why does the winner of a fight get his hand raised?
June 28, 2010 - 8:48 am
When a fighter wins he/she usually raises their hand in victory and often when a professional fight comes to a decision the referee will raise the hand of the winner in the air. Where does this tradition come from? How did this start?
Just a guess here but I would say that it goes back to the days before pa systems and so the people in the back of the arena would know who won.
