In sure the new rules state you can't appeal the judges decision but you can complain about the referees performance
No they havnt changed if you have grounds for an appeal you can send one in but that usually up to your coaches and gb. But his own coaches never seem to agree when crys robbery
they have changed, you can no longer appeal judges decisions in olympic style boxing (amateur)!! we were pulled in for a meeting before the scottish national championships and this rule was made clear! you must not speak or have contact with working officials either!!
it has changed at all levels mate, when we are called in for the nationals it is because aiba have decided on something and it is teh same at international levels too
i agree that the rules are stupid!! i also agree that fowler can come across as a whining little ***** and if he keeps getting cut his pro career is going to end with even more whining!! and not much else
tbh the only place iv seen him cut was high up the forehead, not a place that would effect his pro career.
This is not dig, I have not seen much of him but Bunce had him on his podcast alot. I thought from that exposure and a few other bits and bobs he would be a real talent. Then watched him in the ABA finals where he struggled imo and was quite crude. Personally think he may have some talent but the latest outburst was more a case of sour g****s than anything else. I am sure the Baka Boxing tape is available somewhere but I would be shocked if there was anything to it. He may well be a good pro but not taken to him so far, too much smoke up he a*ss
i always taught he was a good boxer but the bronze medal at the world championships and his exposure since seems to have gone to his head and he already thinks his the next carl froch. Instead of going into fights now and fighting how he used to using his skill and looking for openings, he goes in there like a steamroller thinking his going to plow through these good amatuers and he gets picked off with lots of shots and losses. the thing I really hate is his attitude its always a robbery, the latest one was a disgrace, he lost all 3 rounds on the judges cards and even the English papers said he lost his composure in the last two rounds. Yet his ranting and raving and calling it a robbery, and his twitter page is a shrine to his 'robberies' with a load of well wishers supporting his bs
I think his style will fit right into the pros and he'll do well when he turns over - Eddie will sign him up after Rio. Oh and let's remember his cousin is known as 'god', so in that sense he's allowed to be a gob****e!!
