Terry O'Connor.. the world's most impartial referee

[Guest]

I reckon Terry O'Connor is arguably the world's best ref and deserves more recognition.

When the American Peter Manfredo Jr. came over to the UK to fight Joe Calzaghe, O'Connor showed compassion and stepped in to save Manfredo from a series of savage, heavy-handed blows that may have seriously harmed him.

Yet poor old Terry received nothing but criticism. Perhaps determined to resolve this, when he refereed his next bout in Amir Khan's home town he gave Amir every chance to carry on after Amir was knocked down twice. Rightly so, as they were clearly just flash knock downs.



If only every referee was as fair and impartial as Terry O'Connor - here's to Terry!

Good ol'Terry, the NSB would not be the same without his masterpiece ref jobs.

I say three cheers for Terry, saving the lives of fighters. He knew the iron chinned Khan could take those tappa-tappa shots of feather fist Prescott, but when a fighter is taking concussive shots from a huge puncher like Manfredo was, it just has to be stopped!

Too right, son - Calzaghe could have punched through walls with those powerhouse shots he was landing. Earnie Shavers? ****in' do one!

Typical homer ref. You want nothing more from a referre if hes on your payroll. Frank Warren.

Manfredo hasn't been the same since, he has ATG Potential. But those shots just ruined him. Still, thanks to Terry he is still alive. I guess that's a plus.

You ****ing blind, son? Those shots Calzaghe were landing could have killed a rhino.

WTF!? As if a Rhino would DARE to risk taking those kind of punches!
