''I can't believe it!'' - boxing ref picked for world title bout

Total shock.

That is the first reaction of Kent boxing referee Ian John-Lewis, after he was picked to officiate next month’s WBC heavyweight title fight.

The bout, scheduled for March 21, will see current champion Vitali Klitschko clash with challenger Juan Carlos Gomez.

John-Lewis, from Gillingham, has been involved in boxing for 30 years and described the forthcoming bout as a dream come true.

I've seen this guy a few times, he's okay.

He's a Negron, or a Semi-Negron, am I right?

Yeah, that's him. He seems like a solid enough referee. He refereed Gomez's last fight.

I was hoping for Mickey Vann.

How does that even make ANY sense whatsoever?

If your point is that "yo,,, all uk ref's are bias, lamo, pwn!" then since when did Vitali Klitschko come from London?

Nah, he was just stating a fact, Zomes is ****ed even if he brought the whole Cuban olympic boxing team with him.

Right... in other words, his post had zero relevancy to the thread?

Well Paul750's been saying for years that Gomez will be hw champ of the world, so we'll see, I guess...

[Butterball]
