    on friday on showbox the lateef kayode fight was a great example of that, kayode's opponent kept trying to him up, kayode had one arm free and he would just smash godfrey with it repeatedly. ref didn't do anything.



    that's professional boxing right there.
    if you aren't strong enough to tie a guy up the ref shouldn't be breaking you apart


    angulo's fight with alcine was another great example

    i believe smoger reefed, but i honestly don't remember



    angulo had a free hand and alcine was only strong enough to tie up angulos left hand. alcine waited for the ref to break them and he did not, as thats the way the rules are supposed to play ou
    he clubbed him with his free hand until he was basically out on his feet

      With you there.

      While we're on the subject, I desperately hope Smoger is in charge of both the Haye-Klitschko and Rios-Antillion fights.

        yep great another great example.

        I really hate how there are so many refs in boxing that seem to just not understand or even know all the rules. That's not good!
