Paul Edwards
Former British champion
I do think he should have definitely. I think Steve Gray is normally a great ref, when he looks back on it now, he must feel gutted. I think the British Boxing Board will do the right thing and get the rematch.
Thomas Stalker
Former GB boxing captain
Yes Sheeraz should have been disqualified so a rematch is the only way forward from here.
Micky Helliet
Manager & promoter
Sheeraz was guilty of a serious breach of the rules so he should have been disqualified. It’s a shame because although I had him behind on points he seemed to be coming back into the fight.
Andy Clarke
Boxing commentator
Yes, but I say that with the benefit of hindsight. I was commentating from ringside and in real time I could see that Skeete had been hit late, but in that moment honestly wasn’t sure if it merited a DQ or not. Replays showed that it did but referees don’t get to watch replays.
