Check out this easy to recognise URL: http://02fa327.netsolhost.com/ContactUs.aspx I found a link on blogtalk radio discussing his companies his father and himself as being a refereee, this is from 3 years ago but very interesting. http://www.blogtalkradio.com/vegasvince/2010/11/23/referee-laurence-cole-boxing-corruption-exposed thoughts ?
Hauser's done some decent work on this. http://www.secondsout.com/usa-boxing-news/usa-boxing-news/the-insurance-issue
Well, pretty much just as we all expected. I can't believe someone was defending him in the Loma/Salido RBR. I didn't even bother to take the bait, Cole reeks of bull****.
One of the scummiest people in the sport. I cringe anytime I hear a fight being set in Texas out of fear this creep gets to be involved.
Ok so Lawrence Cole sells insurance I know referees that are lawyers, police officers, even a couple were court judges. What difference does the mans profession make? I knew Lawrence & his Father Dickie for 20 yrs in Texas. They were both nice guys Now if you really want to name very suspect referees try Joe Cortez, Richard Steele & the canadian Marlon B Wright what they did at time was SCANDALOUS!! Nowhere has there been more daylight robberies than Vegas
Aside from steele who commited the boxing crime of the century, the rest is horsesh.it. Texas itself is a corrupt and loathsome state. I hate when I have to come into this dive of a Big as.s state on business. It's all a carnival show. Cole has NEVER not been involved in controversy when involved in even the slighest high profiile fght. I've also stopped taking any fight seriously that is held in this state. Two words to describe Texas-Tacky and Cheap
only a few bad descions happened compare to Lass vegass paulie vs diaz kirkland vs molina chavez sr vs pernell Chris John vs Rocky Juarez Jermain Taylor vs Cory Spinks Jorge Rodrigo Barrios vs Rocky Juarez Trout vs saul alvarez one judge Vazquez Jr winning over Donaire
there's a video above of him covering his mic and telling Marquez that he is up on the cards, so if he quits he will win atsch he insures the very fights that he referees. Maybe he thought he might have to pay out ?
