    The roles of promoter and manager used to be more separate. It's a conflict of interest IMO. But yeah boxers have always been tied to one promoter in most cases, with a few exceptions such as SRL.

    I'm sure the guy who was with Haye for the Wlad fight, Paddy? IIRC. Used to train Cox and was really close with him. Was he there tonight? if not then i think he's had enough of **** sorry Cox's..

    Cheers lads

    So was he getting warned for the low blows and having points taken off, or was it a case of the ref turning a blind eye?

    Yes, Tbh it's as bad as Golota with Bowe in terms of blatant and number of them. Just less stupid cos ref didn't wanna pull him up.

    He got warned, got a point taken off but then the ref knew he would have to DQ him if he kept seeing them so turned a blind eye for a bit, took another point off a bit later.

    Did anyone else hear Green say something like "If you take the ****, I'll take another off" before the last??

    Was just me because it was like he knew he was hitting him low but didn't want to do anything

    Im sure i heard that as well...he was basically saying look im giving you a fuking chance, dont low blow so blatently! Piece of **** referee and fuk the judges, when i heard UD i thought the ghanian lad had won! He fukin deserved the win after all them low blows, either that or he should defo have won via dq! Im feeling for the ghanian lad now, who probably wont get a chance to fight for a title anytime soon!

    They didn't have direct contracts with promoters though, did they? It is a definite conflict of interests.
