I don't know if you have seen this. But how would a boxer be punished if something like this happened in the U.S.?

Seemed unwarranted. I can't really critizice or judge him for it as I have watched fights where I wished the ref would get KO'd. Most recently, Bayless in the Maidana-Mayweather fight. Sometimes refs need to get put in their place for their favoritism and corrupt ways.
WOW ! It didn't take long before someone went and made this a " I hate Floyd " thread .
In amateur boxing u have corruptness also . Maybe not to the extent of the pros because theres no money at stake . But u do see things like judges and refs favoring a certain fighter or trainer and even the fighter havinga parent or both that work for USAboxing as refs or judges . Even if They dont judge or ref their kid's fight they're part of the inner circle so their kid gets favorable treatment whether in a fight or getting an opponent chosen

This is one of the dumbest things you've ever said

That is unfortunate....
but, maybe I don't understand amateur boxing or I'm missing something.
The guy was up holding his hand to his ears showing he can defend himself, he was no longer wobbled. Ref counts then waves it off.
I watched the Golovkin vs Bute amateur fight, Bute was completely out on his feet. This was different. He should protest but not do what he did.
Wise move. Why get involved and risk your own career?
Risk his career how? He just had a boxing match with him, surely he can shove him off of an old man for a couple of seconds until help arrives.
BTW I'm supposed to be your "alt", so as your alt lets keep this cordial.
