Moments That Defined the Best/Worst In A Referee

If I was Ricky Hatton I would have Dave Parris with me to every fight to referee. He allowed Ricky to punch Tszyu in the nuts and got away with it. He would have warned Floyd for holding and moaning. In fact he would have warned Manny for hitting Hatton whilst he was not looking when he knocked him out and given him 10 minute recovery time.

This criminal always sticks with me. People said errors or debacles, no looked like a hometown paid man. I've never seen a fighter lifted up, held in place and free to bob around like fully inflated beach ball released underwater ffs. Around 9:20 is when it all starts to go fruity but just an insane fight.

Also the poor old ref in the Antonio Tarver v Eric Harding rematch. By the end Tarver was yelling at him for almost getting Harding killed. The guy was awol!

Like the ref with Mercer Morrison. Mercer was like...man I could've killed the guy, he took way too long. But I still have faith, I'm sure there are some reffing moments that stood out in a sea of bad ones.
