If you are boxing out properly, you are in contact with the opponent when you drop into a lower stance with your back-end sticking out.
There is zero possibility that the opponent will be able to move forward into you, and as such, there is also almost zero possibility that they will not be slightly displaced backwards.
It's called putting them on their heels, and when you are on your heels, the only recovery is to step backwards a little bit.
You can see where I'm going with this... To me, a foul would be when a box out rams or causes the opponent to be greatly displaced. If they are back on their heels and take a step back to regain balance, their center has shifted, and you could say they have been displaced, but that's no foul to me.
