should Kenny Bayless ref every big vegas fight???
The only guys that get these fights these days are either complete idiots like cortez or Nady type attention seekers.
With Bayless your hardly ever chatting about a decision his made and he has that calming instinct that allows those big fight moments to go down rather than making irrational decisions and jumping in.
The best well known ref in boxing today by quite a distance!!
Re: should Kenny Bayless ref every big vegas fight???
Bayless is a GREAT referee. I feel like he should have all the top assignments along with Tony Weeks too. Joe Cortez, Gay Nady, and Vic Draculich need to definitely be downgraded.
Re: should Kenny Bayless ref every big vegas fight???
I think Bayless and Smoger should be the two superfight refs. They are the best IMO.
Re: should Kenny Bayless ref every big vegas fight???
I was very happy with the decision being made for Tony Weeks to ref De La Hoya-Pacquiao, Weeks is a great ref and very underrated, great MMA judge aswell.
Re: should Kenny Bayless ref every big vegas fight???
Bayless, Smoger and Weeks are all excellent choices IMO.
I don't mind having Cortez in there for the opening 4 rounders that aren't televised.
Re: should Kenny Bayless ref every big vegas fight???
SMOKIN" SMOGER !!! Also what happenend to Frank Cappucino? Last I've seen of him was the first Ward Gatti fight. Another guy I seem to like but dosen't get alot of fight's is Michael Ortega.
Sorry got away from the question.

I was going to mention Smoger...You beat me to it....
Certainly 2 of the best today IMO......
Both allow the action to take place but also they are sure to know exactly when enough is enough as well......

I agree, Weeks is up there to.
Re: should Kenny Bayless ref every big vegas fight???
I think Smoger is the best current ref. He is the modern day Mills Lane.
Re: should Kenny Bayless ref every big vegas fight???
Bayless, Smoger,Weekes, Drakulitch & Byrd All good competant straight down the line officials

Cortez was on the undercard this weekend and I screamed at the TV saying, "THAT'S WERE YOU BELONG!"
Re: should Kenny Bayless ref every big vegas fight???
Smoger,Bayless,Draculich top notch.Benji Estevez.
Remember Ed O'neil,Ralph Condit,....pretty abrasive,intrusive refs.Joe Cortez acts like he is in a bad B-movie and someone has just yelled.."Action"...he gos into theatrics :-X
I miss Mills Lane

Esta Bien Aqui!
Tony Weeks is a Bi-Lingual Legend :)
Re: should Kenny Bayless ref every big vegas fight???
I rank Bayless as the best current ref, with Smoger 2nd and Weeks a strong 3rd.
Bayless gets most of the top Vegas assignments (Oscar-Floyd, Pac-Marquez II, Cotto-Margarito, etc.).
Smoger is the top East Coast ref, I was surprised that he wasn't working Calzaghe-Jones.
Mercante Jr. also impressed me with how he handled Cotto-Judah.
Laurence Cole (Texas) is probably the worst big name ref, with Drakulich a close 2nd.
Re: should Kenny Bayless ref every big vegas fight???
tony weeks deserves a mention to be fair as ive never seen him make a whole host of mistakes.
Drakulich has been known to jump in unneccesarily a good few times though
Anyone has to beat jay nady....god i hate Nady soooooooooooo much :foruml10gc5::foruml10gc5:
