    :good That's important to remember.

    But it's mostly that guy from Italy that sucks. :-(

    i doubt warren or calzaghe are happy with caiz as a judge , but i have seen no complaints.

    caiz was pro jeff lacyr during there fight , even docking calzaghe a point for an innocuos punch behind his back in the 11th and what was with the back slapping of lacy after every round.

    So, overall, the judges are OK? Do two wrongs make a right? Are YOU happy with the judges and ref, sean?:think

    TBH you can never tell and it is always in hindsight we complain one way or the other.

    in very close fights it is subjective anyway and one view is as valid as the other.

    My thoughts? Kessler will have to be very careful when Joe is shoeshining. It adds another factor to the fight. Now Kessler has to worry about more than just getting hurt.

    Yes, I'm sure that was the reason why Warren wanted the Italian judge instead of another American.:p

    According to the contract Joe should also have attended a press meeting in Denmark, but that didn't happen either. Warrens word is worthless even on paper.

    According to Team Palles site they agreed because Kessler told them to.

    I would have preferred even an English judge to an Italian to be honest.
