Kenny Bayless
I love the choice
I was just waiting for it to be Cortez!
Yep, it's the right choice. Bayless is the best ref in Nevada right now and deserves the top assignments.Quote:

At least now we can just expect the fighters to decide the fight with a competent ref in there.
I just hope he doesn't panic because of magnitude of the fight and doesn't do his usual good work.
Here's the link by the way

I'll take duck butt over Cortez, or Nady, any day!!!
Good choice!!! ;D
I agree. Those two are the biggest panickers in the business.Quote:

thank the good lord it isnt mr attention whore jay nady or joe "im fair but im thick" cortez!!
The best refs are those you hardly ever notice and bayless comes into that category perfectly.

Great choice!
I really like Cortez , he is very Professional , i dont want mean the others isnt it , but i like how he work inside the Ring.................;D
I thought Cortez did an okay job with Klitschko-Thompson.Quote:

Cortez is about as popular in the UK as charlie zelenoff is on youtube
Fair choice he'll have to be establish a clear belt line for these two body punching machines. In my opinion the two best body punchers in all of boxing, signature punches for each. Would hate to see point deductions.
Good choice. Anyone but Jay Lady or Snoretez would of been fine with me.
Thank god we have a referee that knows the difference between infighting/fighting from the clinch and spoiling and holding.
I just want a ref that lets the fight up close and slug it out, those two peanuts Cortez and Nady seem not to know the difference.
Worst headline referees in the game.
Come on. Lets not be too hard on Cortez (I hope it was Cortex who said that so I don't look like a tw@t). He was looking after his gay fantasy in PBF when he said it was a pleasure to ref one of his fights.
As for Nady he allowed Holt to headbutt his way to victory.
Bayliss I think is a good choice and I believe he even knows at least 10 words of Spanish. uno, dos, tres......
This is a good choice. I was hoping for Bayless or Weeks, as I think they are head and shoulders above everyone else in Nevada imo.
I forgot who I was talking to about how Bayless yells in the face of the fighter that gets knocked down.
HOPEFULLY WE'LL GET TO SEE IT IN TWO WEEKS!!
Cortez should look into ref'ing the wwe. I'm fair but i'm firm, jeeeesuuus. There's got to be a court show out there with his name on it...i don't actually have any real glaring hate for the guy but he's constantly involved in controversy, nice to see one more possible excuse for either side thrown out the window.
Ya know,being fair and somewhat firm I have to agree.And I can not stand that drama queen.He had an Iffy call in the 2nd (?) with Missed KD?Quote:

Good call here with Bayless it's always good to have a ref. that counts really loud into the face of the boxer who is down. ;D
Can't wait for the day where Caiz Jr. get's the major fights the kids the future of refs. His pops is good to.
What are some of the more notable fights that he's ref'd so far?Quote:

Caiz reffed De La Hoya-Forbes and has reffed a ton of fights in So Cal which I'm guessing is why Mick is familiar with him.
I like how Bayless tries to be very official, from giving locker room instructions to trying to make himself clear in "Spanish." I always laugh when I think about the fight when two spanish speaking boxers were fighting and he was warning about watching the clash of heads and he kept saying "la cabeza! la cabeza!" I forget the fight.Quote:

I never said that. I just would like someone who, like Some STD's just won't go away, to realize what a rational thought is.
If you don't ever praise the cocker spaniel, he won't know what the hell to do.
Noted. ;D
Thankfully I've never had the pleasure of contracting an STD... I've dodged more then a few bullets;D

Ask Julius... That tool is probably a cesspool of nastiness;)
Kind of difficult to contract one from your hand isn't it?Quote:

Well yes, but like you explained to me in a lengthy personal message:
They can be contracted when a often traded snake has had intercourse with several breeders/traders/saddo posters.
I like Caiz Jr. cause he's young and he's gotten the experience since early in his career. He's a ref. & a judge.Quote:
