Can we not have a whip round and get this bloated air steeler off our boxing bills? Career highlights; KO'd in the second round by a french geezer called Mary. Awarding 1st Fury vs Mcdermott fight to Fury when it was painfully obvious to anyone that McDermott had won clear. Finding a six round winning margin for Stevn Smith over John Simpson in an obviously close fight. Having a higher waistband than Simon Cowell. Waving off a 'World Title' fight only to carry the Knocked out opponent back to his stool and then allows him out the next round to get waved off again. On a more serious note his officiating is beyond incompetant and could easily be viewed as corrupt. He made British Boxing a laughing stock on Saturday Night. HBO's commentary team got it pretty well spot on. This man should not be ollowed to use an electric toaster unsperervised nevermind officiate world class boxing. High time the BBBC stepped up and consigned this guy to the eat all you can buffet. His expenses claims alone must be astronomical. I really think the boards already tarnished reputation is severley at stake if they let this idiot continue.
no he didnt... he stopped the fite cause the bell rang.. then accidently walked into cleverly then correctly or incorrectly aided him to his corner... a few years back helping a fiter back to his corner by cornermen was a common occurrance.... watch old you tube footage and u will see tis.... it was just an unfortunate set of cicumstances wat happened at the end of the 3rd on sat nite:good
at this rate hes gonna go down as even more corrupt as dave parris-a feat i didnt think was possible.and you brits call the germans cheats.
Exactly. O'Connor should be retired just for not disqualifying that Russian cnut for hitting Clev on the floor.
Referee's are biased just like the commentators. Halling in the Barker-Geale fight for the bodyshot knockdown- "oh, that has to be a low blow, looked really low to me, Jim!" STFU you biased *****! Also Rawling ranting about Kov hitting Clev when he was on the floor - speak about clutching at straws for the home boy!
oh don't give me that, he was CLEARLY jumping in to stop the fight right before the bell rang, its more that than helping him back to his corner, he helped him back to his corner because he was out of it, and because he was out of it was the reason O'Connor was jumping in to stop the fight
