  • Bad Referees & Fights ruined by them

    In light of the terrible refereeing job tonight by Vic Drakulich in the Rios-Chaves fight, here are a few of the bad refereeing jobs I could think of:

    Russell Mora in the Joseph Agbeko-Abner Mares fight: Mares hit Agbeko with low blows throughout the fight on his way to a majority decision win. Referee didn't give a shyt about Agbeko's complaints & even ruled one of the low blows as a knock down when Agbeko went down.

    Arthur Mercante, Jr in the Cotto vs. Foreman fight: referee overruled Foreman's corner when they chose to throw in the towel LOL

    Richard Steele in Julio Caesar Chavez Vs Meldrick Taylor: No need to talk about this I guess, the world knows what happened in round 12

    Which ones can you think of?

    Laurence Cole in Dirrell vs Abraham. Not the DQ itself, but he basically frustrated Abe into committing that foul. Whenever Abe got Dirrell on the ropes or in the corner, he found some BS reason to stop the action. And of course there was that KD that he ruled a slip, too.

            Richard Steele did what he did. Taylor wasn't responding.

              Howard Foster Froch/Groves 1 stoppage. Great fight still but bad ref job.

                Celestino Ruiz is one of the worst and most incompetent refs in the game today. He merely ****ed up last night's fight before Kono and Kameda due to his incessant need to inject himself in the fight and deduct points for nonfouls. The guy should not ever be allowed to ref a high profile fight again.

                  The three worst referees are:

                  Jack Reiss
                  Lawrence Cole
                  Ian John-Lewis

                  They always help the promoter's boxer (home boxer).
