I don't know that the referee can be watching holding on the offensive line and get back to the quarterback. I think watching the quarterback is a full-time job.
I don't actually think boxing is a particularly dangerous sport, I wouldn't even put it in the top ten of dangerous sports, but that's only if you take it seriously.

By rule, the decision to reverse a call by use of instant replay is at the sole discretion of the crew chief.

In MMA, you can literally cheat over and over again, and it's OK. The media will back you.
