    Instant Replay Approved, To Be Used in Las Vegas

    According to the Las Vegas Review Journal, the Nevada State Athletic Commission voted unanimously on Wednesday to use instant replay on a limited basis for boxing. Instant replay would be used solely at the discretion of the referee to confirm a call - like whether a clash of heads was intentional or accidental, or how a cut was opened. If the regulation is approved by the Legislative Council Bureau and filed by the state's librarian in thirty days, then instant replay will be used in Floyd Mayweather Jr. vs Juan Manuel Marquez on September 19.

        I agree, for the sake of fairness of the athletes. Now the problem is how are they going to implement them, that is the make or break of it. As long it helps the sport it will be appreciated.

            Yes, this man came into my mind first.

                    Key words here are 'limited basis and discretion of the referee'.
                    Let's hope these guys put it to good use.


                    lol I can only think of Campbell right now.
