Comments Thread For: Officials Named For Quillin vs. Konecny Title Fight

[US Dirk Killer]

With the Cold War going on between the networks what else is Quillin supposed to do but keep busy fighting the top ranked challengers to his belt?

Konecny is ranked #2 so at least he's meeting those obligations. If a Danny Jacobs fight happens next then he's doing everything he can as far as I'm concerned.

Oh please....

4 different fighters called him out, Lukas Konecny

You say he's number 2, but you know that's bogus.... he beat 2 french MW's and he's #2? LOL WTF?

The alphabet groups are ridiculous with their ratings. But if a champion wants to keep their belt then he has to occasionally face people who are ranked in their top ten. It is what it is.

It's not like HBO is going to pay Kid Chocolate to fight Golovkin on their network, or let Golovkin fight on Showtime. Hell Sergio Martinez and GGG are on the same network and that fight still hasn't happened.

They have to defend against people in the top 15, which Guerrero and Rosado was supposed to be since Quillin was defending his title against them.

Konecny isn't a mando either since he's #2....that's Rubio and he's been mando for a while

Lukas Konecny already faced an uphill challenge the moment he accepted assignment versus unbeaten middleweight titlist Peter Quillin. An additional hurdle has now been put in place, with four U.S.-based officials named for his title challenge in Washington D.C. this Saturday.

Veteran referee Kenny Chevalier has been tabbed as third man for this weekend***8217;s middleweight title fight, which serves as the televised opener of a scheduled SHOWTIME tripleheader. The three judges named for the bout are William Lerch, Michael Pernick and Steven Rados. All three judges are from the United States, with Rados (Washington D.C.) and Chevalier (Maryland) locally based.

None of the four officials have previously worked bouts involving either fighter. [Click Here To Read More]

Pretty much, need extra back up even though he's fighting a JMW euro bum

Don't think judges will matter anyway. Konecny is tough, but bleeds a lot and he's pretty undersized

Save money, we can go out drinking instead, download the fight later.

Seriously, quillin is a joke and the biggest paper titilst today. He wants respect, but doesn't want to earn it
