Joseph Parkers fourth-round knockout win on Thursday was surrounded in controversy after it was claimed the referee counted out Solomon Haumono too quickly in Christchurch, New Zealand.Parker (20-0, 17 KOs) dropped his New Zealand-born Australian opponent with a right uppercut to the jaw but as former National Rugby League player Haumono got to his feet, 77-year-old referee Bruce McTavish finished counting and then waved the fight off at the Horncastle Arena.The win kept New Zealander Parker on course for a shot at Briton Anthony Joshuas IBF world heavyweight title but David Kettle, the timekeeper for his win over Haumono, says McTavish got the count wrong.We counted one, two, three, and the referee came in with a seven, so he missed four seconds, Kettle, from the New Zealand Professional Boxing Association, told the Sydney Daily Telegraph.The referee started in the wrong position; he should have started at four, but he started at seven.Haumono (24-3-2, 21 KOs), 40, has launched a protest with the WBO and WBC governing bodies, but he was on unsteady legs when he got to his feet after Parker had dominated the 12-round bout for the fringe WBO Oriental and OPBF heavyweight titles.I believe I was forcing the fight, got caught with a shot, was regathering my thoughts and was ready to go on, Haumono said. Unfortunately the referee seemed to think otherwise.Parker became Joshuas mandatory challenger with a unanimous points victory over Carlos Takam in May but this was an easier win for Parker, who is trained by Kevin Barry at a gym in Las Vegas.The 24-year-old hurt Haumono with a barrage of hooks in the second round, but was then caught with a big right against the ropes in the third round after leaving himself wide open.That scare at the end of the third round prompted a quick response from Parker, who was working neatly behind his jab until unloading a vicious right uppercut on Haumonos chin in the fourth round.Haumono got up on unsteady legs just as McTavish finished his count and the official then waved the fight off. McTavish then explained to Haumonos corner that he got up too late. The former Manly-Warringah Sea Eagles players team later protested against the stoppage, and unbeaten Parkers team are due to make an announcement about his next fight on Tuesday.The count wasnt clear, it wasnt loud or precise, trainer Justin Fortune said. Its not because were sore losers or anything like that, its about the fact [the referee] actually got it wrong.A rematch with Haumono could now be on the cards after the controversial count. I was slack on the jab, but when I started throwing the jab more in the fourth round it set up the right uppercut, which he didnt see coming, Parker said.Joshua (17-0, 17 KOs), the 2012 Olympic gold medalist, has yet to make an announcement on his future plans after winning the IBF belt in April from Charles Martin and then making a first defense against Dominic Breazeale in June.The Briton is due to box again in Manchester or London in November, or early next year.

LAKE FOREST, Ill. -- Jay Cutler can envision bigger things for the Chicago Bears offense.It just might take some time.The Bears will step onto the field with a decidedly different cast when they open the season at the Houston Texans on Sunday.The talent level is definitely there, Cutler said. Weve improved in a lot of different areas. How it is going to go on Sunday, I mean were confident and Im sure they are confident as well. This group I think has the potential to get better and better each and every week.The Bears certainly had plenty of room to grow coming off a last-place finish in the NFC North at 6-10.They go into their second season under coach John Fox and general manager Ryan Pace with an overhauled defensive front seven and no shortage of new players on offense. They added a major one this week when they signed three-time Pro Bowl guard Josh Sitton after he was a surprise cut by Green Bay.That had to make Cutler a happy man.After all, a quarterback who in the past took more than his share of big hits behind weak lines in Chicago now has two elite guards in Sitton and Kyle Long. That cant hurt with J.J. Watt staring at them this week.Anytime you can get a guy like (Sitton), a level of player of his nature, youve got to be excited, Cutler said. He solidifies that offensive line and hes going to help make us better.Sittons arrival allows rookie Cody Whitehair to move from left guard to center, which the Bears believe is his best position. And the way they were talking, he might be the one snapping to Cutler even though veteran Ted Larsen is listed No. 1 on the depth chart.Things come natural to him, Cutler said. Hes a natural football player, natural offensive lineman. With him, he just hadnt snapped as much as some of these othher guys.dddddddddddd. He is a heck of an athlete and the last couple days have been a smooth transition for him.Its not just the line that got an upgrade. Cutler could be throwing to two top receivers in Alshon Jeffery and Kevin White.Thats assuming the Bears made the right call when they drafted White with the No. 7 overall pick in 2015. They didnt get a chance to find out last season because of a stress fracture in his left shin.White finally appears ready to make his debut, though he did show up on Thursdays injury report as a limited participant because of a hamstring issue.Fox offered few details on that, saying, Not being a surgeon or a doctor, they just tell me hamstring and thats what I report to you guys.Assuming White is ready to play, it will be a long-awaited debut. At 6-foot-3 and 216 pounds, the Bears believe he has the size and skills to become a major threat. If he develops the way they envision, they could have a dominant pair as well as a cushion should Jeffery -- playing this season on the franchise tag -- eventually leave.For now, Cutler feels comfortable with White. The two spent time together in Lake Forest and at the quarterbacks home in Tennessee during the offseason.I know a lot about Kevin, Cutler said. I know what he likes and what he doesnt like. How he runs routes. Its just a matter of experience. He just has to get out there and there are things he has to experience and go through in his first game. You got to get through the jitters and after that you just have to play football. Hes a very good football player.---Online:AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and www.twitter.com/AP-NFL ' ' '
