Barry Michael, Lester Ellis and Susie Ramadan will also be on a forum answering questions on their careers.
The main question I would be asking is in relation to judging. I think this can make or break the money/fans. My concern is that if all it takes to be a judge is being a punch counter then the quality will suffer. I think it ought to be mandatory that a judge should prove he can referee a fight. Drawn rounds should be few & far between."Ring generalship" was introduced to stop drawn rounds IMO. For example, if the punch count is close, then whose controlling the fight, which fighter is making the fight. How well a fighter is fighting off the back foot etc. I suspect that if you asked a lot of the seasoned referees who they believe won the fight, it may surprise many judges. From his perspective, & the way he has to stand clear yet position himself & predict the direction the fight is going, he gets a much better perspective on who is doing the better, ALL things considered. It just seems strange to me, that in this day of high tech that we haven't moved on this. Any judge should have to do more than read the rules & sit ringside to qualify. JMO
