Roger Tilleman is dead. Let his crime - the "refereeing" of Sven Ottke v Robin Reid on 13th December 2003 - rest with him. http://www.fightnews.com/Boxing/ebuwbc-ring-official-roger-tilleman-passes-110017
I remember that bout. Boy, did I catch shit on SecondsOut for going on a rant about that. I wrongly derided Germany rather than the referee and got rightly caned for it. ::
I haven't seen the fight but have read some of the horror stories. Was he ever interviewed afterward to explain his actions?
They tried to interview him but Ottke's after-party had already begun and the bouncers didn't allow media in the room
Refereeing in Konstantin Airich - Danny Williams was IMO even more all over the place, but what made this worse was that it was that biased, Williams-Airich was just absurd http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JsDNTF-EUG4
Yeah, Robin REID WAS the spitting image of WESLEY Snipes. Hard to tell when Reid was cut so dark was he.
Sven Ottke, he was out there bashing up the same Brewer that knocked out Herol Graham, the same Glen Johnson that beat up Allan Green and Roy Jones, and the same James Butler that did for Sam Kellerman. He was a man not to be fucked with. Fuck the Runcorn Reaper- he needs to go back to Bucharest.
Ottke beat up on Mundine, he beat information about cold clear drinking water out of him. Ayers Rock must not be related to Granite.
:nono: Yeah but Paddy Doherty couldn't extract Saxon valuables, treasures and such out of Ottke courtesy of the middle-man, that's red-tape for you, ..you fucking socialist.
