Aside from his excellence as a referee, Smoger is also known for being the victim in the "chair incident" which took place during the first Hasim Rahman vs Oleg Maskaev fight. Smoger, the backup referee at the fight, was sitting just outside of the ring when Rahman was knocked out of it by Maskaev. Shortly after Rahman hit the ringside floor, Smoger was struck in the head by a chair which had been thrown from the crowd, by a fan who was soon arrested.
