Brook-Spence referee warning

Some people.... If a ref or judge is questionable you go off the handle, until it's a ref that might help your fighter, then we're not allowed to talk about this stuff. :D Those of you saying there's bad refs in America, you should have a problem with ALL corrupt/inept judges, regardless of where they come from. Of course you won't though because we all come here to throw sand in each other's faces like children. I do have a problem with all corrupt, inept officials, I'm not from any of these 2 countries so I'm definitely not biased either way, it seems though from posts on forums (not only this one) that when a decision is way out in America that the general consensus it " what are people sooking about" from the Americans,whereas in England if they don't like the decision and it goes to the Englishman that they still air their anger. I have always said that in a world title fights there should be no judges or ref from either of the combatants countries, there should be a pool of judges and their number should be pulled from a hat 15 minutes before the fight so any chance of corruption is reduced, the same goes for the ref, Oscar came out publicly a couple of weeks ago saying if he was spence promoter that he wouldn't be fighting in England in case of a bad decision yet canelo was given a draw on the card of 1 judge in the mayweather fight, you couldn't possibly be that wrong in that fight, just an example

so how's he different from Kenny Bayless and Joe Cortez exactly? no clinching allowed against Hatton. clinches all day long with anybody else.

The two people who started these threads aren't Americans doe More rip offs in America than anywhere

Do Brits complain who Americans pick for their refs when the fight is held in the US?

I think IBF picked/confirmed the ref. Dunno if it's from a shortlist or what? Howard Foster is the go-to ref when the promoter wants to pad his fighters record with early TKO stoppages. You end up with powderpuff punchers having more KO's than they should have. Like, some fella is 10-0 (9 KO)... "hang on, 6 of his fights are Howard Foster TKO's".

Hmmm, this is the second time this has been posted. I'll have to make a mental note of that when watching the fight.

He is paid backhanders by Hearn. He liked a prediction on his Facebook for Froch to stop Groves in their first fight. And that's exactly when he stopped it. He is bent.

You guys are funny, when you get a dud ref in America that is all for the American, Mexican fighter you love it but when it is against you you cry like children, unbelievable
