    Default A moment in the sport you were actually offended

    What moment in the sport have you actually been offended by...By that I mean a moment that maybe a boxer commited some sort of foul and you could not believe that they allowed him to fight again....A fight that a promoter put on that was so one sided you can not elieve he actually stood there bold faced and tried to convince us it was a worthy bout...Maybe something the commission did not handle that outraged you..I'll start out with a few...

    1. Zab Judah being allowed to ever fight again after putting his hands on Jay Nady

    2. Frank Warren trying to convince us that Peter Manfredo was the top SMW challenger in the world even over making a fight with Mikkel Kessler

    3. The boxing commission allowing Tommy Morrison to fight again without more extensive testing from outside medical staff

    I am sorry I forgot their names but I remember seeing two guys in the ring after the fight waiting for the decision. The winner went as a good sport to shake the other guy's hand and give him a hug but when he barely stretch his hand the other guy threw a sucker punch that hurt him. I mean, why get mad at the guy who won? If you didn't like the decision then go get mad at the judges or ref!
    There should be a video on YouTube.

    Yeah I think I know which one you mean, he only had his hand wraps on when he hit him too?

    Out of Daxx's 3 I would say the Tommy Morrison thing.

    Its on the "Shame" thread page 1 or 2?James Butler hits/KO's Richard Grant in front of 500 + police and is promptly handcuffed and marched out of the arena.What an arse.

    Also any commission's that allow Oscar Larios to continue in his face first career,as he can not pass physicals in the U.S so he fights in Mexico and over sea's.This could be a long thread

    To be honest, the one thing ive been most offended over was when the english crowd booed the aussie national anthem when kostya fought hatton. No respect for such a respectful man and also who does that? The English crowd is currently the only nation in boxing universe that seems to think booing a national anthem is cool. I swear if i had been in the crowd at that fight, you would of seen a brawl in the crowd. Would of punched some cunt in the face for sure

    That would have to be number one for me too.

    How about Tyson eating evanders ear and being allowed to fight again.

    Thats was the worst thing I have ever seen as far as a foul.

    What about Golatas intentional low blows to Bowe . That was an awesome heavywheight fight until then.

    The blatent robberies by judges always get to me the most, its like all of one teams hard work is for nothing but the lining of someones corrupt pockets or maybe a set up for more money and a bigger fight for the chosen camp.

    That was James 'The Harlem Hammer' Butler.

    The guy is now doing life for murdering the brother of HBO commentator Max Kellerman.

    Tragedy that, Butler is a loon and Sam Kellerman did everything to help him in his career.

    Hatton v Mayweather i was in the crowd that night when alot of English booed.Although it never offended me it was embarrassing that they booed the nation anthem and it offended alot of people.

    I will not be surprised if the same idiots do it again when Ricky fights Paulie.

    I havent been offended by fighters really. The guy who hit Golota with a phone was a prick. The Reid Ottke ref, the guy who rang the bell half way into the round, Jay Nady sucking Mayweather off before the Baldomir fight, Nadys handling of Jones/Ruiz and barerra/Marques. Joe Cortez in the Hatton/Mayweather and Hopkins/Calzaghe and Soto/Lorenzo.

    Off the top of my head:

    -Joe Cortez' latest debockles.
    -Zab Judah's reactions to the Tszyu knockout and the low blow on Mayweather.
    -I don't know if this counts but I think Vic's reaction after Donaire knocked him silly was classless.
    -Mayweather and the beating he put on Gatti. If anyone puts that kind of hurting on another person, he should be jailed! (This is obviously a joke)

    Joe Cortez showing bias against UK fighters in favour of his US friends.

    He let Bernard Hopkins hold, snuggle and do what he wanted all night long against Calzaghe. He even let him roll round on the floor for a number of minutes while taking no action

    He constantly broke Ricky Hatton up when he tried to fight inside agaisnt Mayweather. He also gave him a bullshit point deduction when a punch never even landed. All so he could get a picture with Floyd after the fight

    Shame on you Joe, don't ever think of coming to the UK

    I find it offensive when a boxer blatantly disrespects his opponent in the ring, especially when he is cleaning his clock at the same time. Prime example was Jones - Ruiz. I really hated that hot dog after that.
