News Tank vs Roach 2 - PBC PPV- August 16th Las Vegas

[Kovalev's "Man Bag"]

Did the referee say anything about how much he messed up?

Nope. He won't answer any questions on it. Go figure.

also When a fighter gets KD and the ref starts to count and the fighter gets up and walks the other direction instead of coming to them, Ive literally seen a damn TKO ruled right then and there. I can’t produce an example, I just know I’ve seen it before. This is the weirdest shit on all levels I’ve ever seen, and sooooo hope the call gets overuled a Knockdown. Sorry Tank, you lost.

This exact scenario happened on a uk card within the last couple of weeks but I can’t remember what the fight was

I feel bad for Steve Willis, he really screwed up, but i don't think he deserves the level of mockery given how long he's been a good ref. Turki posting that picture of the cross eyes was despicable imo.

He used to be a good ref but he's been screwing up a lot lately. Just weeks ago he reffed another fight where he ruled that an accidental headbutt caused a cut when it was actually a punch. I think he needs to be demoted to officiating lower level contests until he shows that he's up to the standard of reffing high profile championship level fights again.

Lamont Roach Jnr foresees justice, rematch coming his way

Lamont Roach Jnr delivered a performance oozing with confidence in his near upset of Gervonta “Tank” Davis last Saturday night, and as he awaits justice from their controversial majority draw, he again feels things will fall in his favor.

He should say something though. Stand by his decision, regret it, say what he was thinking - something. It's weak and I think disrespectful he doesnt talk about it. Refs have commented on much lesser controversies.

The ref completely stuffed it at the end of the day.

I just feel changing the results dumb because if the knock-down counts I changes the whole fight.

Make the rematch.

Sack the ref.

Seems like he was so confused with what was going on he forgot he was the ref lmao.

Tank's team can argue that if the knockdown were officially called in the ring it would have changed their tactics and it would have been a different fight all together. Steve Willis really screwed this one up...what a mess.

Riiight, no offense but thats pretty freakin thin. Its like Butterfly effect in boxing. If theres a discrepancy in post judging "how things COULDA turned out" -had they not committed a blatant offense...well than tie goes to the runner -in this case that Roach.

Seeing as they didn’t overturn the result I’d say it’s not that thin lol.
