Foot techniques: Any striking techniques using the part of the foot below the ankle bone are legal, whereas any others using the part of the leg above the ankle bone, i.e. part of the shin or knee, etc. are not permitted.

It would be very interesting to monitor the referees decision reaction time in competition. The new 1-2-3 scoring rules doesn’t seem to simplify the decision process that was so problematic in the past.
As usual, the answer is the opposite of simplification.
Just as a reminder: the more complicated a sport is to be understood and judged, the less it will be appealing to the mass and the press.
