    Went down to the Sleeman Centre tonight to watch the Muay Thai fights and help out Wayne Parr prepare for his fight with the Preacher. After a good fight the judges are called for to give their decision, after a 10 minute delay they announce that the Preacher has won on points. This was totally against the run of the fight so enquired as to the scoring, this is when its goes crazy. 3 judges at ringside scoring, just the same as boxing, one would think. First judge has Wayne winning by 4 rounds, (good read on fight I thought), second judge has it to Wayne by 1 round and 3rd judge has it a draw. Now by any reckoning that makes Wayne the winner by majority decision, Right?? WRONG!! The officials call for a forth judge, well not really a judge but he was an official sitting ringside (not scoring but watching the bout) for his opinion. He says "I think the Preacher won it". Bingo, decision win to the Preacher, now that is democratic!! And I thought Ned Kelly and his boys were dead, you win the fight, you win on the judges cards and you still get robbed, how crazy is that !!! :patsch

    Surely world class fighters like these guys deserve better than that farce?

    Name 'em and shame 'em Rod - who are these world class 'judges'?

    I really think the 3 judges scored it the way they saw it but whoever was supervising the night couldn't work out that 2 and a draw add up to a win. Probably is dyslexic and can't add up or read or something! so he asks his mate what he thinks. What a sham!!

    Brings a whole new meaning to the word "Incompetant"

    What do the tell the Authorities when they can't produce one scorecard that favoured the "Winner".

    Mind-boggling of the most illogical kind.

    even with the fourth 'official' putting in his $2 worth and saying the preacher won it, there were still two cards saying JWP was in front.. How does a fighter with two judges scoring him the winner lose to a fighter who has one judge scoring him the winner?
    I would think someone probably had money on that fight.

    Was there an actual sanctioning body or something for the fight that can reverse this bull****?...i'm actually suprised JWP didn't knock preacher out.

    wayne contacted the president of the WMC today and he is investigating the whole episode. He couldn't believe the situation either, wanted to know why a 4th judge was required as well. The plot thickens!!

    yeah i read it on his facebook, hope they right the wrong.


    what i find even more amazing is parrs weight loss, have a lot at this post by him before the fight.



    Made weight, my best effort yet, 87.5kg to 72.5 in 4 weeks. 5 hours after weigh-in already 80kg, by tomorrow should be 82-84kg. If your in Brisbane, come check out the madness, it's going to be a great night.

    Exactly. The buck stops with this 'organiser'.

    If he doesn't know that two cards showing Parr the winner, and one showing a draw, doesn't equal a Parr win, he's INCOMPETENT, and shouldn't be there!

    Just an update on this BS guys! The president of the WMC arrived over here to sort out this shite fight and at this stage only bagged the judges for telling Wayne he had been robbed. So much for integrity, honesty and all that rot, it appears that they have now sent the score cards over to Thailand and are having Thai judges look at the tape and judge the decision. I wonder why they have judges over here in the first place?
