I've got a few. Wont name any names or places though!
I had a fight in France once. We didnt arrive until 1.00 in the morning and the fight was next day. We asked about the weigh in but they said the opponent had already weighed in and because we were so late the officials had gone home so we had to wait till midday on the day of the fight to weigh in! We were only late because of the travel arrangement the promoters had made.
I once had to give 4 kg away because I weighed in a kilo light on the promoters scales. My opponent was 3kg over. They made him skip for 20 minutes and he lost 0.3kg. Then they said the officials had to go, so that would have to do.
I've arrived at the airport with Lisa once when she was due to fight and noone was there to pick us up. We made our own way to the hotel/casino where the fights were being held which was a really great hotel to be told they hadnever heard of us. We had to wait around for another 2 hours until someone turned up and we wewre them told that although Lisas opponent and all the other fighters were staying in this hotel, we were in one 20 minutes walk away. Not only that but we had to walk back to the Casino for our meals.
At the same place our hotel room phone rang at 2.00 am and 4.00 am with noone at the other end on the night before the fight, until I disconected it.
On another one in France we had to walk back from the venue to the hotel after the fight and make our own way to the airport next day. The promoters paid us and then siad "Goodbye, you're on your own now"! We also found out that they had a big party after the show but we weren't invited!
