    This is how it used to be done. Has nothing to do with their money.

      Again tell me why a professional boxer, Sergio Mora, has never heard of the referee also judging the fight if it's common and widely done. Did he just start watching boxing?

          Happens a lot in the low level fights here.
          A kind of through back to the early days of boxing I suppose you could say.

          Fury's latest fight was scored by the ref. Also his first fight against McDermott, a fight many believe McDermott won.

          Off topic, but who are the 2 smartly dressed guys on DAZN? The ones wearing suits and a hat.

            Not only that, but I'm pretty sure the network isn't the one who decides on the judging

              Nah, refs do still judge fights some times. At least I know this happens in the UK and some other countries. Usually small time domestic fights with no world title / contender implications.

              You could understand it when it comes to fights where the boxers are making peanuts. Cost of hiring judges when the ref is already in the ring is not always easy to justify.

                    We watch american fights. Where we can afford judges. Stick to your UK fights where you guys charge $10 a ppv and can't afford judges

                    How many UK fighters are on the P4P list again? Lmaooooo

                      I've heard of refs having a scorecard, but dont remember a ref having an active say in the official scores.
