    ref should be banned and find a new ref with a good eye not with the lazy eyes.

      People always say so and so ref is great...until he's tested and the a side is in trouble. Then that great ref suddenly becomes a groveling yes man

          I was rooting for Tank to win I like watching him fight but come on taking the knee and the ref not ruling it was some bs and just more proof how protected A side fighters are

            Boxing is awful and has been awful regarding corruption. This is nothing new.

            Sturm robbery vs Hoya, Herrera getting robbed vs Danny, the 60 year old vs Rolly, and now the uncalled KD last night from Tank's knee.

            There are countless others. This is the sport.

              Tank basically called a timeout DURING A FIGHT and his fans are saying today it's allowed. Tank fans online are pulling up some bs rules that never existed saying that fighters are allowed to take a knee to reset without being counted as a knockdown.

                    That ref was probably the only one left that i liked. I don't delude myself for nobody. He messed that up.

                    End quote

                    I remember another fight awhile back with a fighter continuously falling over on his own. The ref kept stopping the fight and ruling it a no knock down and let it go on. It happened like three times. I commented about how that was the same as taking a knee here in the forum and nobody else seemed to care.
