I do not like the OP's racist characterizations.
With respect to the topic at hand, however, Weeks, who is usually a solid referee, did a horrible job that night. If he had taken a point after the first warning, the fight might have gone a different and better direction. Instead, Broner turned it into a poor fight to watch. We need to keep an eye on Weeks when he referees PBC events going forward to see if he favors the A-side. Is this the same fight where Adeliade Bird had it close too? Let's keep an eye on her as well.
I had no problem with just the 1 point in all honesty. When I guy jumps in with the head as much as Porter does sometimes all you can do is hold. Broner holds more than most I agree, but Porter got away with stuff too. Weeks likely thought that the point deductions were pointless as Broner was losing pretty clearly anyway.
but if Broner was white, it would be no problem?
If the ref would have deducted the point when he should have, it may have forced Average Busta to stand up and counter aka fight thus resulting in being tko'd like we all very much wanted to seeWe wuz robbed

This is a fight that needed good old Jack Reiss. He knows how to take control of a fight. I loved when he took 2 points away from Ward and Rodriguez for holding and not breaking when he told them to break, so one more point would be a DQ. The rest of the fight was much better after he did that.
I guarantee you Reiss would have deducted points from Broner very early and it would have been a much better fight, not the shit-show that transpired.

Good points. Browner was just bullshitting about the ring and acting like a kid on a jungle gym. Mwahshasha sha sha. Kid Chocolate would a done better.

No points should have been taken. Id be much quicker to take points off the wild fighter coming in throwing wild punches to back of head and kidneys. Remove holding and it just turns into a messy street fight. If you want to be strict about holding you need to be strict about use of the head even if its accidental.
