Highly regarded Derby-based referee Paul Thomas has joined the World Boxing Federation in the capacity of representative for Great Britain and Ireland. Thomas is actually one of the best boxing officials over the last few decades coming out of England. His refereeing career started way back in 1977 and since then he has handled well over 1.700 contests. Among those, Thomas has been the third man in the ring in about 180 world title fights and an approximate further 300 contests that were for either European, Commonwealth, British or Intercontinental titles.

Upon his appointment, Paul Thomas stated:

“I have travelled to many countries and seen how different commissions control the sport. Believe me, I have seen the good, the bad and the ugly in control.

“Now I wish to put all my experience into helping to make the World Boxing Federation a respected and powerful world authority. Certainly the people already involved are experienced, honest and reliable. It is because of those three virtues that I offered my services. I truly believe the World Boxing Federation is going to be a main player among the world bodies.”
