SeelowHeights Posted August 14, 2011 Share Posted August 14, 2011 FanMan should be mentioned here, as well as the riots in the Bowe / Golota and Mayweather Jr. / Judah fights. Not to mention Tyson's bite at becoming Heavyweight Chomp against Evander "The Meal Deal" Holyfield. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
littleman370 Posted August 14, 2011 Share Posted August 14, 2011 there was also the malignaggi fight where his trunks were falling off from like round 7 on (i forget the opponent) in the best fight from 2010, bonanni/carrasco i think one of the fighters' brothers got in the ring and tried to fight the other corner. not entirely sure what happened though as i don't speak a lick of spanish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeelowHeights Posted August 14, 2011 Share Posted August 14, 2011 Oh yeah, the Wilson / McCarthy fight here in the UK some twenty years or more back where the fighter's mother came into the ring and hit the opponent over the head with her shoe as he was pummelling her son against the ropes. Even more incredibly, the guy getting beat was given the win! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iamasadlittleboy Posted August 15, 2011 Share Posted August 15, 2011 Valuev v Sidon The referee calls the fight over and awards Valuev the win expect Sidon is really pissed at this and the two men continue to fight for a number of rounds with out a referee in a bizarre fight that was given as a No Contest (if you can find the video it's brilliant) Zarate v Zamora A fan climbs into the ring and argues with the referee in the opening round, after a small conversation between them two 5 riot cops toss him out the ring and the fight continues, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
littleman370 Posted August 15, 2011 Share Posted August 15, 2011 this one comes to mind though i'm shy on details...didn't hopkins get pushed out of the ring by mills lane once? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WelshDevilRob Posted August 15, 2011 Share Posted August 15, 2011 As already mentioned Wilson / McCarthy and the Fan man incidents. Also, Danny Williams fight against Konstantin Airich. Where it seemed Airich promoter was trying to prevent his fighter losing. The ref in the Reid vs Ottke fight - telling Reid off for throwing legitimate punches. Cornelius Bundrage vs sechew powell 1 and the double knockdown. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
irondave85 Posted August 15, 2011 Share Posted August 15, 2011 The ref in the Reid vs Ottke fight - telling Reid off for throwing legitimate punches. Didn't he deduct a point from Reid for knocking Ottke down? Disgraceful piece of officiating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gavpowell Posted August 15, 2011 Share Posted August 15, 2011 Not quite - the knockdown became a slip and Reid had a point deducted later in the same round for...fighting, presumably. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
irondave85 Posted August 15, 2011 Share Posted August 15, 2011 Oh right. My memory is a bit hazy, but I remember it being one of the worst jobs of offciating I've ever seen. Another reason why I hate the ref is because he made Duke McKenzie's voice go higher pitched than normal. I remember him shouting "THAT'S DISGRACEFUL!!!" when Reid had a point deducted. My ears haven't quite recovered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WelshDevilRob Posted August 15, 2011 Share Posted August 15, 2011 Lol Duke was getting more excited than usual. I'll have to rewatch the Williams vs Airich fight as alot happened in that. I can't bring myself to rewatch Ottke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McBride Posted August 15, 2011 Share Posted August 15, 2011 Duran knocking out the wife of a fighter he had just knocked out, when she got in the ring to slag him off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RAZZ-MCFC Posted August 15, 2011 Share Posted August 15, 2011 Duran knocking out the wife of a fighter he had just knocked out, when she got in the ring to slag him off. El Toro from Nicaragua! She ran in the ring after Duran flattened El Toro in the first round and he turned round and decked her as well There's a quote from Bob Goodman in Four Kings about the incident which i love: 'some guys try to create an image by acting like some kind of animal, but not Duran. He actually was a fucking beast.' In all fairness though the president of Nicaragua had asked Roberto to carry El Toro a few rounds, obviously that didn't happen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
