- Actor
- Additional Crew
Boxing referee who worked mostly in Southern California from the mid
1920s until the late 1950s. Roth was at the center of many
controversial fights, and wasn't afraid to get involved. Once, after
several warnings, he stopped a fight in the tenth round and declared it
a no-contest because the two boxers weren't mixing it up enough. Toward
the end of his career, he made several questionable decisions during
fights, stopping some too soon and others not soon enough.
