Ben Davison has shrugged off claims that Jack Catterall was robbed of a famous victory over Josh Taylor.
"It’s disgraceful…we won’t have any British judges on this show!"

Davison - who has worked with Taylor in his three most recent fights, including a unification win over Jose Ramirez in Las Vegas - says the reaction in the UK was not the same compared to the US.
Joshua needs to control the ring
Davison was also asked on the White and Jordan show about the chances of Anthony Joshua avenging his defeat against Oleksandr Usyk.
The pair are likely to meet at the end of June but Joshua will be without Rob McCracken after departing from the Team GB trainer following his points loss to Usyk in September.
"Anthony Joshua's not gonna win the battle in the middle of the ring, clearly. So he has to be able to control the ring, he has to be able to make Usyk work harder than Usyk wants to work.
"If Joshua can control the areas of the ring, push Usyk back, make him skirt around, make him break his base, attack when he breaks his base, then he's gonna have a lot easier entries, a lot safer entries and he'll land cleaner, more often.
“I think with the right tactics, Joshua has the capabilities to win the fight. With the right game plan, the right preparation.
“Is he capable of winning? Yes. Do I think he’s going to win? Probably not. But I’d love to see him win because I’d love to see that fight [with Tyson Fury].”
