    *One* crazy moment in Hatton-Lazcano

    It's just before the fight.
    Referee asks both fighters to touch gloves.
    Refree then looks at Hatton and says 'Good luck, lad'.

    Not good look gentlemen, but good luck lad...a singular.

    Isn't this a bit un-professional?

      lol, kball do u remember at end of round 7 i think, Lazcano followed Hatton to his corner and something happened. Did it come through on U.S coverage? I think the idiots on Euro coverage were too busy talking crap and didn't bother getting a replay of it

        Joe Cortrez's refereeing of Hatton/Floyd and Calzaghe/Hopkins was the epitome of unprofessional. The referee showed no obvious bias last night and had no effect on Ricky's impressive victory.

            I thought one of the commentators was right on when he said hatton was like another ref. Hatton would make eye contact with him when he wanted him to break to the clinch and he seemed to do it every time

              This is all stems from the myth perpetuated by Americans that all referees from everywhere else in the world are essentially cheats. Unfortunately this myth has now spread to the extent that those from beyond Americas shores are also being taken in by it.

                  of course not, there are cheap refs in America too. the worst was that Emmanuel Augustus vs Courtney Burton one, now THAT was the mother of all biased refs. worse one Ive ever seen.

                  biased refs are biased refs, it doesnt matter where they come from

                    It has everything to do with American myths. Several American writers, both on websites and in credible publications, have for years talked about decisions and refereeing displays around the world in a derogatroy almost xenophobic way which has created a climate where it has become acceptable to call refs and judges from other countries biased and even to go as far as to accuse them of cheating when there is no sound evidence.
