    Every time I think of the first Jose Napoles - Armando Muniz fight I can’t help but think of referee Ramon Berumen and his disgraceful performance

    Carlos Padilla also refereed the first Vito Antuofermo vs Alan Minter tile bout in March 1980, won by Minter on points.

    I believe Berumen also refereed the first Carlos Monzon vs Emile Griffith title bout from Luna Park on Sept 25 1971, won by Monzon TKO 14.

    Mills Lane with Tyson vs Holyfield 2 thanks to the ear bite incident. I think that’s the one fight people always associate him with.

    Kenny Bayless seems to be involved in some of Floyd Mayweather Jr’s fights.

    Yes he did. As a matter of fact I just watched that fight the other day. But if you want to be really entertained, there is a 5 minute video out there on YouTube of a fight between Juan Ramirez and Toluco Lopez. Talk about letting a fight get out of hand. The disgruntled audience absolutely fills the ring with seat cushions and the idiot of a ref tells the fighters to box on despite the ring being an obstacle course. Guess who the ref was? Ramon Berumen. How this man ever found work is beyond me.

    Harry Gibbs is probably best remembered for the Henry Cooper v Joe Bugner fight and that controversial decision

    The guy got a lot of stick from Don King after Tokyo.
    King was doing his best to get the ko reversed. Lol

    Good one Noel.
    That fall out between Henry and Gibbs went on for bloody years.

    Joe Cortez with Hatton-Mayweather is another one, Cortez never wanted Hatton anywhere near Mayweather and let Floyd get away with some dirty stuff iirc
