Comments Thread For: Parker vs. Fury - Terry O'Connor Replaced As Referee

[Citizen Koba]

Not having him as ref, but okaying him as a judge sounds a bit weird.

Well at least we won't have to worry about him carrying Hughie to the corner if he gets KTFO. Maybe that's what they had in mind.

Felt sorry for cleverly that night myself

It was like man vs boy

shame terry didn't walk him back to the changing rooms instead of to the corner

Terry O'Conner has filled is card in already . . Fury win 120-110 . . . Who the hell agreed for him to be Judge, it's even worse

[Travycat]

In hopes of making it more fair, the Fury side has agreed to replace one of the judges with a 6'9 fella named Dyson Sury.

LOL this is like a comedy skit. Don't like the ref? Okay fine, new ref & make the ref a judge.

The real winner here is the fans because terry's huge belly won't be in the way.

Should have kept him as referee I don't know what all the fuss was about. Surely Terry is going to have this at the back of his mind when filling in the scorecards.

Lol having him as a ref is way worse. He would stop the fight in the 3rd round with Parker getting hit by a jab.

Or he can let you take unnecessary punishment like Chisora did in the the Fury rematch. A few of his stoppages have been comical I admit but most times he's actually good.

Was the problem because he's British? or because he's Terry O'Connor? I've not really been following it.

I don't see a problem with it if it's just because he's British. If you go fight in USA against an American, you will generally get an American ref and judges, so what's the difference?
