Name a Dempsey/Marciano/Liston/Foreman fight as boring as Klit

[El Kabong]

it was funny on the other thread when i read it first

and the next bit about brits and reffing adds to the humour

it makes me laugh on this forum when a couple of boxing fans have a disagreement and one of them says "you know nothing about boxing", i dont know if you noticed but it giggle at it all the time

on this occasion dude im backed into a corner, ive got nowhere else to go with you, but if you are honestly of the view that wlad should not of been called for the fouls on saturday night then you either dont know anything about boxing or there is some other mental issue

The Brits DO love to complain about refs Joe Cortez apparently allowed "too little" holding (in Hatton-Mayweather) for your tastes and Luis Pabon has now allowed "too much" in this fight. Here's the deal, PROFESSIONAL BOXERS are going to have to deal with some refs who call fights more by the book than others, it's something you just have to go with the flow about. Povetkin and his team surely knew what they were in store for from Wladimir, I mean they only had 63 fights of his to watch. Surely Team Povetkin was informed about the ref, certainly they talked pre-fight and voiced any concerns about Wladimir's tactics. Once in the ring and seeing that's you're not getting calls if you thought they were fouls, there's little you can do but ADJUST YOUR GAMEPLAN.

erics44, you box do you not? Do you cry about the refs you get this much or do you say "Fuck it I'm going to try to win the fight regardless of what the ref does"?

Povetkin said "It was a fair fight"

What more do you want? Pabon called the fight the way he saw fit, if you don't like it then go become a ref and call the fights differently yourself.

I've not accused anyone of "knowing nothing about boxing", I just question everyone's grasp on reality if they expect perfection from authority figures in anything. In sport or work or anything....don't rely on someone else to do your job for you. Povetkin's job was to win the fight, the fans blame the ref, Povetkin blames himself.
