    better question is why one guy is being asked to ref as well as score a 10 round title fight

    Larry is a decent guy, I am sure he wouldn't lie about something like this.

    Its kind of the obvious conspiracy theory though.....thats not knocking Neil the OP or his source.

    I remember thinking at the end of the 9th that it could get pretty nasty WHEN Fury was announced the loser...............

    dave parris does it as well.....as many other officials....

    like i said i haven't seen the fight but looks like malignaggi's rant about boxing politics is true in the UK as well...:D

    If neil is right and this ref was already fixed for fury......why not make the score closer.....fury comes out ahead, but these guys are idiots if they think they can fool the fans like this...

    Personally i had fury winning by 1 or 2 rounds.This was a maloney promotion,surely if it was rigged it would have gone in mcdermotts favour?
