The President of the World Boxing Organisation Paco Valcárcel has said he will order an independent panel of judges to assess the controversial scoring in Dennis Hogan's world title fight in Monterrey, Mexico last weekend.
The Kilcullen fighter lost on a majority 2-0 decision, though most observers felt he had beaten the defending WBO super welterweight champion Jaime Munguia, who was the overwhelming favourite.
