Comments Thread For: Jack Reiss announces retirement from refereeing, will still be a boxing judge

[Pac=Duran]

That was one of the best referee calls of all time.

a “ten count” is not ten “seconds”

are you trolling or is this a genuine belief you hold ?

fury showed incredible heart and recovery.

What a disgraceful comment

Beyonce's cringe Black nationalist army still haven't been able to recover from that. One of the great comebacks ever really, and an iconic moment in Boxing.

They haven't mentioned the 2 absolute ass whippings that fury delivered in the 2nd and 3rd fights

Enough with the nonsense. Jack Reiss was criticized for counting too fast in numerous championship fights. And then all the sudden he counts super slow for Fury? Bull-spit, he was in the bag. I didn't have a dog in that first fight either by the way. But to anyone with two non-biased eyes it was very clear to see.

He will never get my forgiveness.

Delusional how tf was it slow. Fury started getting up at like 6. Contrary to all the hype he was not unconscious he was clearly awake you can see from the video, you have 1 picture taken in a split second that makes it seem like he is out cold. Obviously isn't. He has his eyes on the ref listening to the count. It was a perfect count. Go paused anf start a video. Delusional idiots who were sad Wilder got schooled are the ones who **** on about a count. If you think that is slow you need to go back and check your fav fighters knockdown way slower counts than that

Wilder fans crying about Tyson Fury still?

It's not nonsense when a ten count isn't ten seconds. Also wilder didn't go straight back to his corner, Reiss had to tell him to do that because a count can't start till the other fighter who scored the knockdown is in a neutral corner. But the count was fine

Regarding Jack Reiss,
Im going to sound a little biased to the nay sayers of Jack Reiss the referee.
I have known Jack for 30 plus years. We worked together at different times throughout our careers as Firefighters. As a Firefighter Jack was capable, compassionate, medically competent and could operate in the emergency realm with distinction.
Jack did have some golden glove boxing experience as a teen.
And in the mid eighties we boxed on our Fire Departments first boxing team.
I have watched Jack through out his refereeing career and in my opinion watched him become one of the many premier referees of the sport I love.
I believe the attributes that Jack brought with him to boxing, will see him to the Hall of Fame.
Remember Boxing is one of the more subjective sports.
The armchair refs.watching from the TV side can see what the ref on the other side of the fighters can’t.
And to the armchair fighters whom have never stepped in a ring or taken a punch in front of a crowd, I have no words.
Jack, I’m proud and happy for you! Mike Porper

why are all referees old ****s

its like nobody under 40 is a referee. where are all the younger refs? are they all doing amateur fights?

these old ***s arent paying attention and arent reacting. you are right there in the action its a physical and reflex driven job, this isnt being a football ref off the field
