    Well i'd normally hope for justice to be served somewhere down the line but it won't.

    I didn't even see the whole fight and i wanted him chucked out after the **** he was doing.

    Ref/Judges and Cox all need to be pulled before the board. Won't happen though will it?.

    Terry O'Connor

    118-110 Smith vs Simpson II

    That **** Lewis in PF as well and that's just two I can think of at the minute

    What really ****ing annoys me is that all through the fight the commentators can be scoring it one way, then when the result is different they'll shrug their shoulders rather than pointing out that this is a ****ing robbery and it's killing boxing.

    Ref surely has to be pulled.

    He only caught 2 of maybe 8 blatantly low blows. Then there were maybe another 8 debatable ones to boot.

    Terrible refereeing.

    It's Sai I feel sorry for. He won that fight. He goes home now losing both his belt and his 0. That decision has probably did him out a fair whack of cash, maybe even a meaningful career. As Sky says, when will this guy get another chance?

    It's just really bad. It was either the start of this year or the last one when it was just week after week of controversial decisions.

    What a load of shite.

    A ****ing dusgrace, it's been said before but this was worse than that Canadian referee bull**** in the 1st bute-Andrade fights.

    The referee must have been blind in one eye as for the judges, **** knows which fight they were watching. Even those two trollops with their tits out knew Sai won. Another ****ing smear on British boxing.

    Ian John Lewis is a horrendous official.

    Not stopping Klitschko vs Briggs..... and every single scorecard is miles off.

    The stupid thing is that we are the world leaders in terms of the safety of fighters both during and after fights..... yet the worst in the world in terms of officiating.

    The referees are generally incredibly biased against foreign opponents, and judging.... just don't go there.

    We may as well encourage inter-alphabetty title fights, at least you get three foreign judges who are more likely to be neutral.

    Can someone a bit older or wiser than me help me out here. Did boxers used to be tied to one promoter like they are now? It can't be right to have the man who's paying everyone involved in a promotion having an interest in one of the contestants.

    Didn't see this but it sounds horrible. Cox should have been DQ'ed? How come? Constant low blows? And then got a gift?

    It does make me laugh that we slag off the Germans for **** cards but we do it every month
