Re: Poor ref in SBW fight
Thee was no way Williams was ever gonna lose this unless there was a KO. Botha is not making noise yet as he can get a rematch for some $$ .
How in hell a scheduled 12 round fight gets cut to 10 rounds when the home fighter is in trouble and doesn't cause a stink I will never know.
Australian sport has been under the microscope this week for drug use enquirires and betting scandals, now this BS. I hope one of the British fighters challenges SBW and they can make it for the Commonwealth title. Let's see him in there with a hungry fighter in his 20's.

Re: Poor ref in SBW fight
I watched the last few rounds after I realised that it was on mid-morning over here. I think there was some confusion towards the end, as Wiziwig had the fight listed as a 10 rounder. Was it just the commentators from down under who got it wrong, or had it been promoted for 12?

No it seems like corruption
Weigh in stated 12, even the TAB (betting agency here) had odds on 11 & 12 round ko's.
They are refunding those that place bets on that

Down for 12, moved the goals when SBW was looking like he was getting tired and could go at any time.

Re: Poor ref in SBW fight
Well, I can see why people are calling foul play then. Looking at previous WBA International title bouts it looks they can be over 9,10 or 12 rounds scheduled.

@ ross i think over 10 round title fights the ref scores the match... But i have never been too much of a fan about this sonny guy. And from what i hear the fight was a sham.

Re: Poor ref in SBW fight
The mysteries surrounding this bout just grow deeper & deeper...
Not sure why either camp just doesn't present their signed contract(s) to reveal the truth about the intended distance
The positive test scandal is another whole can of worms

I hope this fight was not PPV in Australia.
Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
