Ruling! “inappropriate conduct by the referee affected the outcome of the fight” New

New fight ordered.

Just now on fightnews!!
The people have demanded this.

 

No official word yet if first fight will be a NC or what action, if any will be taken against Mora.

But with those harsh, but accurate terms, some sanctioning appears to be likely IMO!

Yes!

 

IBF President Daryl Peoples and IBF Championships Chairman Lindsey Tucker completed their review of the IBF Optional Bantamweight Championship bout that took place on August 13, 2011 in Las Vegas, NV, between Joseph Agbeko and Abner Mares. Peoples and Tucker observed several low blow fouls committed by Abner Mares. While the referee, Russell Mora, issued numerous warnings for low blows during the course of the bout, he neglected to deduct points for these fouls. With 1:03 left in round eleven, Joseph Agbeko was hit with a low blow foul that forced him to the canvas. Mr. Mora determined that the blow landed by Mares was legal and began to count indicating that a knockdown had occurred.
Based upon their review of the bout, it has been determined by the IBF that inappropriate conduct by the referee affected the outcome of the fight. In accordance with IBF/USBA Rule 3.D., the IBF is ordering a rematch between Joseph Agbeko and Abner Mares for the IBF Bantamweight title which must be held within the next 120 days or by December 14, 2011.

 

There may be something different here.
When did you ever see, in effect, the commentators call the ref a lying corrupt POS to his face?

 

I am predicting some action against him.

 

IBF Rule 3D:
"

3.D. Rematch​

The Championships Chairman and the President, in their discretion, may otherwise
direct two contestants to engage in a rematch for the Championship within a prescribed​

time."

rather skimpy, am researching further re sanctioning of corrupt ref.

 

I agree fight should be a NC, and there should be a suspension. or ban

Full ruling not out yet.
