Not the most blatant but the most recent. Terry o’Conner helping Khan in his latest fight. Any little bit of time terry could muster FOR khan when he needed it he did.

Russell Mora's 27 warnings to Abner Mares for the 753 low blows he put on Joseph Agbeko was the worst I've seen.

My theory though, is that Mora suspected very early on that the 'fix' was on for a Agbeko win VIA Mares DQ.

Tony Weeks witnessed Andre Ward land 3 vicious uppercuts right to the nutsack of Sergey Kovalev... and gave Ward the KO victory

I still can't believe how corrupt that was... imagine Kovalev did that to Ward in Russia and a Russian ref did that? Crooked.

Yeah given a guy a TKO victory on fouls is definitely pretty bad.

Nothing will ever top the fight in Argentina though (I think it was Argentina) where the ref quite literally gave the guy an extra 30 to 40 seconds to recover from a knockdown based on nothing at all. The guys trainer was LITERALLY holding him up by his shorts.

Most corrupt thing I've ever seen in Boxing...and that's saying a lot.

The only way it could've gotten more corrupt is if the ref just started attacking the guy too.

Weeks in the Ward/Kova fight was pretty sad.

Another one that i don't think has been mentioned is when Danny Williams had to fight not only his opponent, but the referee AND the opponent's promoter vs Airich. And still won

The ref's performance in this one is quite something, if you've never seen it.

..I know I'm repeating myself but that was absolutely disgusting:

Can not be repeated often enough as a prime example of pure corruption on the top level. Still can't believe how they pulled that shite off.🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮

Eddie Cotton tried his best to help Mike Tyson out versus Lennox Lewis, but it was to no avail as Tyson was more washed up than a dead crab!

Referee telling JMM he was ahead on scorecards when he was cut. JMM could have won the bout there.. like a true champion, he continued though.

Yeah I remember showing that fight to somebody shortly after it happened, and he commented "That referee is a Tyson fan" it was pretty obvious he was doing all he could to help Mike out.

Brewster v Krasniqi

Ref gave luan a long count then helped him up if i remember right

Steele robbing taylor or weeks robbing Castillo. I don't recall the fighters, but I posted a video here years ago of a ref helping up a fighter after a kd. Might have been some poor guy murata was thrashing. Definitely wasn't helpful.

I don't expect people to agree with me but Howard Foster taking 2 points of Darleys Perez against Anthony Crolla in the last 2 rounds to give Crolla a draw didn't sit right with me. There were times when Crolla was hit to the body and he stopped fighting making out he was hit low , self refereeing the fight. Then there was something with the scores being called out wrong at the end of the fight. all very strange.

Where the deductions for low blow?

The ref-ring doctor showbiz duo in the Ortiz-Wilder fight round eight.

"Let us stop the fight to give Wilder a medical examination! Stick your tongue out and say ahhh, Deontay."

Yep Mafia Vegas par for the course. Another one of many i recall there was bent ref Joe Cortez in the Hatton vs Mayweather fight. Cortez refused to let them fight on the inside where Hatton needed to be.

Might be easier tho, to select any honest refs and judges, drug testers, etc. in Las Vegas.

LOL!!!

Both Cole (had, RIP) and especially Newman (still) have a huge tendency to physically and aggressively "manhandle" boxers that they seem to clearly have issues with. It is COMPLETELY unacceptable and WAY BEYOND anything that would be seemingly appropriate, I wish I could recall a particular situation, but, in some instances, oftentimes, I cannot BELIEVE what I'm witnessing.
(I wish I could blame my not remembering on poor reffing... alas I can't remember what exactly caused it!!! )

.... I'm also glad to hear that I wasn't the only one exasperated by the repeated low blows which were completely ignored in the Ward/Kovalev rematch. The weirdest part of that was that even/especially the announcers/commentators basically pretended it wasn't happening after maybe one mention. That was beyond comprehension.

The referee of Ottke/Reid, Laurence Cole during Lomachenko/Salido not calling any of Orlando's foul shots

Salido basically built his entire offensive attack around low blows in that fight.
