I personally like it that a guy who was trying to win with the John Ruiz style of fighting got knocked out in a clinch :lol:

Adeleye is still trying to get the stuff out of his eyes. I wonder what it was.

I’m only listening on TalkSport but the commentators are going mad about it, saying the referee was useless and the Board should be intervening.

Yep. I think there's good opportunity for this to be turned into a no contest if TKV's team appeals.

The interviewer is trying to justify it while speaking to Adeleye...

Has the bbboc ever changed a result?

Robert Smith probably writing a statement saying the referee was great as we speak

What would FW say if it was TKV who chinned Adelaye on the break?

He clearly hit on the break, it should be a DQ

That’s the worst refereeing performance I’ve seen in a U.K. ring in a long time.

I hate seeing referee getting physical with boxers and the way he was slapping TKV was a joke.

The finish was ridiculous. He shouts break, I think twice and then slaps TKV’s hand away and says ‘get your hand off’ as Adeleye knocks him down.

The board should order a rematch.

Refs had a holocaust of a night, I'm not arsed about nipping at TKV, his holding and spoiling was too much although Adeleye wasn't much better, his use of the forearm and holding, it was messy Adeleye wasn't throwing much and waiting too long, TKV kept it simple and boxed well behind his jab, just the basics, ref was getting at TKV but ignoring Adeleye's fouls

Round 6 they're in a clinch, ref calls break and Adeleye chins TKV with a left hook, should be a DQ but instead ref counts, TKV was gone he was never gonna get out the round and Adeleye unloaded before he finally crumpled, fight over, ref needs binned and decision changed to a NC

It would have been if the roles had been reversed I reckon. Not a real sport.

My verdict is keep the result, ban the referee. The referee did definitely suck, but Boxing being Boxing you could argue in Adeleye's favor why the result should stay just the same. At least I could. :lol:
