Referee disqualifies Ali Mazaheri

Cuba's Jose Laurdet wins a controversial heavyweight bout due to the referee disqualifying Iran's Ali Mezaheri.

A bizarre display of refereeing has given Jose Larduet of Cuba a controversial victory over Iran's Ali Mazaheri.

The referee made the difference in an evenly-matched opener when he firstly gave the Cuban a warning for a low head.

That resulted in Mazaheri being awarded two points, taking him into a 6-4 lead.

However, the referee then evened matters by warning the Iranian for holding three times in quick succession, which disqualified him from the contest.

Mazaheri refused to stand next to the referee for the decision and walked off in disgust.
