Referee - Tony Perez 'I Should Have DQ'd Muhammad Ali'

[Unforgiven]

Didn't Ali call Perez a '****' ?

Ali accused Perez of being paid by gamblers to save Joe from getting KO'd early.

I think Ali did what he needed to do to win, but the fight was close.
Sure, the referee could have warned him, deducted points, possibly DQ'd him because the 'neck -hold' was getting ridiculous.
I'm not sure how much Eddie Futch protested at the time. Futch was a great cornerman but seemed a very gentle man. If it was Angelo Dundee in Joe's corner you would have heard him cursing Perez in his face and that might have made an impact.
I'm not sure of this, I don't know. Just speculating.

It doesn't allow SPlC but I think that's what Ali called him.

Dundee would NEVER have allowed one of his fighter's opponents to get away with what the cheating Ali pulled in the second Frazier fight.

Props to Senor Pepe' for bringing this topic up.

I know the Ali Cabana Boy set don't like it, but we all need to be reminded of another one of their hero's scams now and again.

New York Sportswriter,

Ed Belanger,

After Round 7, where Mr. Ali had another grab-fest of '10' illegal cuffs.

'Hey Tony, get your head out of your ass. It looks like you're working for
Ali's corner.'

'Jesus Christ, can you believe this guy is a boxing referee.'

[Nightcrawler]

he also won fights with ridiculous skills, movement, speed, generalship and sharp punching. in case you missed that part

Ed Belanger,

'Everytime Ali grabs, Tony Perez takes his 'sweet ass' time getting in there to
break up the hold.'

'Look at him strolling around, giving Ali another few more seconds of holding'.

'Hey Tony, move your ass in there.'

Mr. Ali promised to have his next fight at Madison Square Garden.

Of course, he 'lied' as usual.

Mr Pepe , you would know all about lying.
Strange I cannot find anything on "N Y sportswriter Ed Belanger".


Fill your boots, never let it be said I lacked a sense of humour.

I've never read a post by you that was worth the time it took to scan it.

And a referee who credited Joe Frazier with winning one more round than either of the two judges did.

Mr. McVey,,,,

'82' responses to this thread, and you have '16' of them.

Another '131', and you'll have accumulated the same amount of
fouls that Mr. Ali committed on Joe Frazier in the Frazier - Ali II bout.

But, if Tony Perez is counting, you'll still have 'Zero' responses.

Dick Young was close to the number 1 Ali hater of all time.

I hope you are duly grateful for my interest Mr Pepe.
ps I was a clean fighter in the ring, but a dirty one outside it.

Why then did he foul as much as he did?

Any ideas?

Why did he need to do that?

The same reason the Oakland Raiders in the late-60's and early-70's
loaded up their jersey's with vasoline.

They kept doing it, until someone said stop. Then they continued
to do it even more.

Ali would neck hold in almost every one of his fights.
The fact the continued to get away with it, makes one wonder what else went on behind the scenes, between Dundee and the officials.
