The atrocious performance of referee Russell Mora in last Saturday’s Joseph Agbeko-Abner Mares matchup is still the talk of boxing. As expected, a video recap has surfaced on the numerous low blows landed with impunity on Agebeko throughout the 12 round contest. Do I think Golden Boy paid off Mora? No. But I do think he showed disgraceful bias and none of the poise required to handle a big fight atmosphere. If the Nevada State Athletic Commission has any sense, this is the last time we’ll see Mora in a high-profile bout.
