    Comments Thread For: WBO Prez Reacts To British Board Over Referee For Parker-Fury

    I bring to your attention our letter to you dated 9/12/2017 which in essence, requested the appointment of neutral officials pursuant to our WBO Championship Contests Regulations for the upcoming Heavyweight title bout between Joseph Parker versus Hughie Fury. Furthermore, we advised to apply the same procedure and criteria used for the Joshua versus Klitschko bout, in furtherance of settling the present issue.

    Okay so does this mean they need to put in a non-British ref in there or its not gonna be a title fight or a fight at all or was that just a bunch of words trying to lean on them that had no bite?

      Paco Valcarcel is Arum's lackey. Arum gives the marching orders and Paco serves him.

        Nope. It means they requested them to because the WBO are in Arums pocket. They are sending over an official to watch the ref and judges. The fight will still happen.

          So that means change the ref or no fight? Via Bob's orders?

            No surprises all the cards have been stacked in Hughies favor this has been the plan ever since faking an injury and dropping his sack travelling. Him and his team will look like muppets if Parker runs through him and lets hope that happens. Hughie holding a belt will be terrible for the division.

              IMO the British board is just blatantly stacking the deck against Parker, simply because they can. Thumbing their nose at the WBO in the meantime. It will likely come back to haunt the Brits when some future title fights will not be fought there for exactly this reason. And I hope that does happen, teach em a lesson. This is what happens when governing bodies don't think things through ahead of time.

                They should enquire about Hughie's failed doping test whilst they're at it too.

                  The way it reads is...

                  "BBBoC, please change the ref or Arum will spank me. If you don't change it I'm powerless to do anything about it, but it would really help my relationship with Daddy Arum if you complied.

                  Signed,
                  Cuck Paco"

                    For once Top Rank can't be in total control.
