Huge bullshit robbery on the untelevised Crolla-Perez undercard!

Fair enough, I think of someone with that kind of record as a guy who just wants to get paid and compete, but t if he lost an opportunity here that's that. Side note, what kind/level of fights in the UK can still be scored solely by the referee? In theory they have a much better view of the action than ringside judges, but obviously far to much room for corruption, and in a fight where the ref has his work cut out he may not get a clear read on the action is my impression.

Generally 4, 6 & 8 rounders with no title on the line are judged by the referee. It was only a few years ago that 10 round English title fights were judged by the referee but a few shocking decisions from referees made them change to having 3 judges.

Do people still not understand how this works. Home fighters do not lose against journey men and journey men are a lot better than most give credit for. They are paid to lose. They fight every week for a couoke fo grand. If they win one week they dont get a phone call the next week. Most of the time the promoter will pay the journeyman a few quid extra to just give the lad a run around as they know he is no use but he can sell tickets. Id back any of the British journeymen above these eastern european and south americans with fancy looking records any day
