To Carl: Yes the WPKL is hoping everyone will forget
that unprecedented sham-but nobody else has, and
frankly I doubt whether they ever will.
.
I heard many months ago that Dan Green was working "behind the scenes"
to get the WPKL to do the right thing and give Mary's title back.
But his efforts were clearly fruitless, as anyone could |
easily have predicted.

On my message board, the WPKL World VCR Title fight
comes up almost every single time there is even a rumor of a Soumia fight.
I had to delete the latest thread there because it got so vicious,
emotional, and destructive.

But removing the threads really doesnt help veyr muchto erase the bitterness over the WPKL's lack of integrity.

It is coming back to bite Soumia over and over, which is sad;
because it isnt even her fault

It was a stupid decision by her management to try and undo
what happened in the ring with a vcr. It damaged Soumia, and also
destroyed the credibility, prestige, and reputation of the WPKL, and reduced them to the status of fools and incompetents- who will cave at the first sign of pressure.


IMO, Soumia desperately needs to rematch Mary Hart in a 5x3 full rules fight to
really settle this in the eyes of the public who think her vcr title is bogus.

The ONLY remedy for an unfair decision is always
a REMATCH-never a "protest" -unless written rules were violated.

there is never any excuse for reversing a judges decision simply because one side thinks a fight was unfairly decided, orbecaseu as in this case, the spokeman for the WPKL, was suspected of being "biased" becasue he mentioe3nd Soumia was very young to be holding a world title. Whats that ill advised statement got to do with the UD for Hart by 3 international judges???????

What's even more ridiculous about that protests is that the WPKL spokesman didnt make the decision in the first place!!Yet the protest was based on his "alledgedly" biased comments after the fight.

It was three MT judges from 3 different countries who made the decsion unanimous for Mary Hart. so even if Dan Green was biased towards Mary Hart, the other two judges still agreed with him and rendedered the decision UNANIMOUSLY to Mary Hart. So throw out Dan Green's ballot, and its still a 2-0 decision for Hart!!

And get this, unanimous decsions are not
even subject to a protest by the WPKL's own rules!!

@ Dave Croft: Any so called "world MT Title Fight" for men or women, that uses 2 minute rounds-is a BS title, pure and simple. Thats not even open to debate.

Back to the Soumia vs Hart World VCR Title fight:

To be fair to 18 year old Soumia, who has been the unfortunate
victim of a stupid decision to protest her loss to Mary Hart,I will also mention that Soumia recently defeated Mary Hart in the Netherlands
in a 3x2 k-1 rules fight in an 8 woman tournament.

Some of her supporters believe this vindicates the WPKL's decision to reverse the decision in their first fight and take the title from Mary and give it to Soumia. And so I am mentioning that on their behalf.
