I remember all of the talk about the shenanigans surrounding the decision in Rigoberto Riasco's bout in South Korea, all of which was called the "Riasco Fiasco."

That's a hilarious name for it, though "Riasco" is pronounced "Riohsco".

The South Korean bout of Rigoberto Riasco was news in Los Angeles because Larry Rozadilla, a Los Angeles-based ring official, was involved.
In regards to using the term of the "Riasco Fiasco," "Fiasco" had the same pronouncation as Riasco's last name.

Jose Sulaiman. "We have to hold boxing to the highest scrutiny. I will not tolerate any back-door Decisions.
The WBC has integrity, and we will not be influenced by anyone."

I just spit out my coffee reading that quote.

That is funny! Jose Sulaiman has a lot of gall. In fact, it is very difficult to think of another person in the sport of boxing who has less integrity than Suliaman.
