The side referees (José Ignacio Puerta del Trueba from Cuba, Hassan Zubid frrom Morocco, Martin Tadic from Croatia, Fathi Madfua from France and Geir Dahlin from Norway) won't be allowed to judge fights with the participation of Russian boxers, the head coach of Russia for boxing Alexander Lebzyak said.
Yesterday Dean Walsh won the fight with Maksim Dadashev with a score of 2-1 (29:28, 29:28, 27:30). However, Dadashev knocked out Walsh in the first round.
"The result of the fight will not be scrapped, but these judges will not be allowed to judge Russians," TASS cited Lebzyak as saying.
