'Im a 12 round fighter'............since fekkin when?

And Fournier calling someone a cheat, the same Fournier that was banned for PEDs about 3 years ago. Hypocritical tool.

Yes it was an elbow, I dont think it was deliberate to be honest, it was just a poor technique issue.

Boxing is full of fights that should have been NC'd etc over the years. If the BBBC can ignore Bradley Skeetes plight last time out (Punched 3 times while on the floor) then a less professional governing body are not going to NC a fight for a mal shot that 'may' have been accidental.

Fournier is a twelve round fighter in the same way that he’s a billionaire, an international basketball player or a successful Dubai-based businessman.

‘Official’ complaint with PBA

Fournier is one seedy man

Totally agree.
I've seen better form at my local club with the intermediates (12-15 y/o)

KSI’s KO of Joe Fournier officially overturned to ‘No Decision’ as Fournier is successful with elbow appeal
In the aftermath, Fournier made it clear that he intended to appeal and on Monday he did exactly that.

Now, on Friday, the PBA have made their official ruling and issued a resolution which sees the result ruled out – it will no longer stand on either man’s record as a win or a loss.

Their statement read: “Today, on 19th May 2023 Mr Joe Fournier and KSI were advised of a ‘Reviewed Decision’ that was undertaken by Mr Gareth Morris, the referee in charge of the bout on Saturday 13th May 2023 at the OVO Arena, Wembley, London, United Kingdom.

“Mr Fournier had submitted a protest and KSI responded following KSI’s Technical Knockout win in the second round of the fight.

“After a thorough review of the evidence and representations, along with the assistance of Mr Micky Vann (the Supervisor in charge) and an eminent Barrister (Mr Gul Nawaz Hussain KC of 33 Bedford Row Chambers, London) where necessary, Mr Morris came to an independent decision.

“Even though KSI was winning the fight, the blow with the forearm/elbow has been found to be accidental and the obvious disappointment that will follow, it has been decided that the contest is declared a No Decision in accordance with the Rules.

“The PBA has conducted the review properly, fairly and with legal assistance throughout as the bout was sanctioned and regulated under the unified rules of boxing.

“We have ensured that this process was conducted swiftly and fairly to uphold the integrity of boxing.”

So! A no contest in an exhibition

No contest. Everyone gets their PPV money back then

rematch 90k wembley

I wonder what Bradley Skeete thinks of a regulator conducting a review of a controversial decision.

Anyone who paid to attend that event should be sterilised for the good of the nation and the world.

You have to respect KSI for doing what Haye couldn't do and finish him...

What a load of bollo*ks all of it is
