Thats not true...in Germany we deal the following with foreign boxers... :
At the fight a sniper sits in the audience and if the foreign boxer gets too far ahead on the score cards,
the sniper shoots a tranquilizer dart in the neck of the target boxer during the in between rnd,when
nobody looks... ::**
Get the f@#k over your ridicules prejudices people...This ain't Columbia,but Germany... ;)
If its actually true what you say then the same goes for th US or UK...
I don't even deny
that there have been bad decisions in Germany,but I still say not more than anywhere else...
...
I'd say Germany is worse than Vegas....and thats saying something.
I'm not being prejudice and i'm not taking a swipe at our German friends....i'm just saying the judging is very partisan imo. Just an opinion as well.
Re: Skelton didn't show up at press conference...
Just a case in point its never happened anywhere else in my traels. Took one off my boys to Hamburg to Spar with Gomez 92 or 93 nobody met us as arranged so we took a cab to the gym, where we were met slept in the rooms attached to the gym ok. Next morning we were woke up at 8am and told we were sparring in 10 minutes and to get amove on. My kid said I havent woke up yet, dont care was the reply your here to Spar. Got in the ring and Gomez tried to spark the Kid, it wasnt happening, 2nd round Gomez in on his arse hurt, all of a sudden everybody could speak English. My kid said not to worry he would carry him and they did 4 more rds nicely. After they were all apologies.12 o/clock was the sparring after that with the kid in 2nd gear and he got an extra 1000 d/ marks. But if it had worked out how they planned it would have been a hard week, luckily we had done are homework and the kid was better than they thought.

Nice story...though you have to work on the funny stuff...
And this doesn't really sound like a bad experience...First of all it was only sparring I mean what do
you gain if you beat your sparring partner ? Secondly they did apologize and thirdly your man got an
extra 1000 bucks...

A big crowd of fight fans at the Kaufhof Galeria in Düsseldorf had an opportunity to see a public workout by WBA world heavyweight champion Ruslan Chagaev (23-0-1, 17 KOs). After missing Monday's press conference, challenger Matt Skelton (21-1, 18 KOs) finally made it into town and also demonstrated some of his well-known punching power to onlookers. Chagaev makes his first world title defense against Skelton on Saturday night's big "Universum Champions Night" card at the Burg-Wächter Castello. Also showing their skills were WBA Intercontinental champion Taras Bidenko (24-2, 12 KOs) and his opponent Cisse Salif (22-8-2, 20 KOs), plus unbeaten heavyweight Egon Roth (18-0, 13 KOs) and trainers Michael Timm and Kevin Sanders.
