BOXING fans were left perplexed after Konrad Czajkowski's cornerman took phone calls between fights.<\/p>\n
Czajkowski was fighting English light-welterweight Owen Rees in Newcastle on Saturday night.<\/p>\n
\n
\n<\/p>\n
The coach gave instructions to Czajkowski while chatting on the blower between rounds four and five in the six round bout.<\/p>\n
There is no rule in the laws of the British Boxing Board of Control to stop trainers taking calls mid-fight.<\/p>\n
Czajkowski was eventually stopped in the fifth round of his fight as his professional record dropped to 2-2-1, while Rees improved to 2-0 after winning his debut in the summer.<\/p>\n
Olympic gold medallist Audley Harrison was appalled by the bizarre act when on commentary and said: "That\u2019s crazy – fighters, I don\u2019t care who your coach is – do not accept that kind of work environment.<\/p>\n
"A professional coach wouldn\u2019t even think to bring their phone in the corner like that, so this coach needs some schooling on being professional on fight night."<\/p>\n Fans were completely baffled by the decision to take a call during the fight.<\/p>\n One fan wrote on X: "Hahahahaa emergency call."<\/p>\n Another wrote: "Who said men can't multitask?"<\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n CASINO SPECIAL – BEST CASINO WELCOME OFFERS<\/strong><\/p>\n A third wrote: "Konrad, your mum says hi."<\/p>\n Unfortunately, the advice coming from outside the ring was of no use with Rees stopping Czajkowski\u00a0in the fifth.<\/p>\n In the night's main event, the promising Shabaz Masoud kept his unbeaten record with a split-decision victory over Jose Sanmartin.<\/p>\n It wasn't the greatest performance, with his promoter, Eddie Hearn, admitting he was far from convincing: "If we\u2019re talking about Shabaz Masoud as a world championship contender, miles off the pace, miles off the pace tonight. <\/p>\n "We\u2019re talking about a guy that looked like a British title, European title fighter. Not someone that looked special enough to win a world title. We know he\u2019s got the ability to do it, but tonight wasn\u2019t good enough."<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/picture>star gazing <\/span><\/p>\n
