what was the ref on in the ricky burns fight?

It was disgraceful.

You can't continuously grab a fighters arm and throw it out of the way, you just can't. What happens if you grab a fighters arm and in the process he gets hit with a huge shot while defenceless?

One of the worst ref performances I have seen.

It was the �great� Laurence Cole. He could mess up anything.

I've actually seen fights where refs did that before. I didn't like it then and I don't like it now. Referees should be reviewed and critiqued after each fight (if they aren't now).

Omar has brittle hands -- that is why he went for an inside brawl, while throwing a very limited amount of power punches. This kind of tactics forced Burns to hug a lot. Figueroa paid no attention to defense, as he knew that Burns has little punching power... The fight was very boring.
