WBC wants all fathers banned from working sons corners

[Wayne]

This sounds really, really stupid. I mean, won't affect me at all, my dad can't even hold a camera to take pics or vids he shakes so bad when I fight haha. But yea, a lot of fighters their fathers are seasoned, trained professionals.

Meh, they making up rules and bannings for all the wrong reasons. Are they all a buncha punch drunk power broker wannabes or sumthin? wtf?

Remember the story a couple years ago about Sulaiman's son wanting Pavlik's t-shirt? They tried to strongarm him for that.

They also did it to Sergio Mora, I think it was the gloves. Sergio had already promised them to some one else when his son came in and demanded he hand them over. What a bunch of phuking dirty weasels these Sulaiman's are.

Every fighter who possesses this piece of crap title should line up on national television and throw it in the garbage and burn it.

Well that pretty much ends any hope of a Calzaghe comeback.

What's next in their new rule book, anyone working a boxers corner must be in uniform or else face disqualification and revoking of their license?

Like Calzaghe needs any excuse to come back for the WBO belt.

Hmmm, maybe its not as daft as some may think, anyone remember the fight with Hatton V Stevie Smith in 2002 in Manchester?? The ref Micky Vann ( Hattons best friend ) very nearly got sparked by Stevie's dad 'Darkie smith" as he didnt like the decisions from Vann, he climbed in the ring and had a pop at him which resulted in the been stopped by DQ. In fact as a result i believe he was banned from been in his sons corner by the BBBC.

It's a slippery slope bro, is the prob. You can find one or 2 exceptions for just about anything in this world. There is more going on here then meets the eye and common sense imo. They gonna ban all cornermen, next time one does something stupid? Know what I'm saying?

retarded idea

Not entirely sure if JC ever held the WBC belt at SM but thats pretty much the pinnacle of an excellent trainer/fighter relationship regardless of if its family or not.

Of course you get incidents such as zabs old man knocking him out and stevie smiths dad jumping into the ring and fighting the ref, but they should be dealt with as individual incidents rather than putting everyone in the same basket!

Yep, dont get me wrong bro, i feel for the peeps whom would suffer from such a decision. On the other hand ya can also see how these things do happen. I remember a particular bout in the UK some years ago, a young boxer getting battered in the ring, and his mother of all people jumped in the ring from the front row and started hitting the other boxer with her handbag

it was her shoe, not her handbag, and her son ended up winning , should have been a DQ in favor of the other guy

WOW bloody good memory you mate, i knew it was something like that, bloody funny all the same mind

I want to ban the WBC from boxing because they are con artists and seriously taking the piss with these bizarre and draconian suggestions and enforcements.

I don't know why we give the time of day to these gold spray on tin, belt organisations. They are all a crock of shit at the end of the day and don't mean anything anymore.
