He also got twatted by a Lacy right hook while he was turned facing and talking to the ref during a break! Only to get a count for it, then in the same fight, Lacy goes down and the ref actually gives him a helping hand up!! That was also a cunt of a ref as well as that fat walrus in the Ottke fight

Forgot about that ref helping Lacy up! what a joke that was and i'll never forget the Ottke fight i couldn't believe what i was watching must be some of the worst reffing i ever seen. Refs can make mistakes and stop fights too early or too late, that can be down to human error under pressure, the ottke ref was just blatantly corrupt.


in the middle of writing this i thought i'd check the refs name - Roger Tilleman. Googled him and it brought up a lot of other forum results where people are slating him.

Turns out he was a judge in the Kessler v Froch fight and scored 117-111 in favour of kessler. not got a problem with Kessler getting the nod but it just goes to show how shit some people can be, it's not incompetence it's complete disregard for decent sportsmanship.

I'd love to be a ref/judge even if my favourite fighter was competing i'd score it fairly, if he lost i'd make sure my card showed that.
