Boxing Commission Overturns Decision On-site for Katia Alvarino and Roxana Beatriz Laborde

Katia Alvariño

Laborde

In what was a weird situation in Uruguay, the Uruguayan Boxing Federation overturned a decision in a boxing bout between Katia Alvarino and Roxana Beatriz Laborde.

The judges originally scored an unanimous decision for Alvarino, but the commission promptly on the spot declared it a no contest for the Argentine fighter; feeling that “it was an unfair result for Laborde”.

Although no video is up on this fight yet, it would be interesting to see. Plus, would this be a good or bad thing for MMA?

This opens the door to a lot of questions.

  1. Don’t see it happening in the US, Lara-Paul Williams fight was not overturned, even though the judges were suspended indefinitely.

    Only way it could happen is if there was evidence of corruption.
    Even then it would be made into a no-contest.

    And I don’t see this EVER happening in the ufc, DW is good friends with the commissions.
