    Default Re: Cortez to referee Calzaghe/Hopkins fight

    I TOTALLY DISAGREE WITH THAT COMMENT!!!Cortez might have refereed loads of top draw bouts in previous years,but you have to be honest with yourself his refereeing during the 10rounds of the mayor "UNDEFEATED" clash between Mayweather Vs Hatton was a total SHAMBLES.I mean "COME ON!"He broke up one of fights of the Decade 14 TIMES during the first round and continued with that figure throughout the 2nd,3rd,4th,5th rounds.He only seemed to let the fight progress in the latter rounds after he knew Hatton was getting frustrated due to him(Nob-Head Cortez)parting them both(Hatton "n" Mayweather)as well as talking throughout the bout to Hatton.How BLOODY frustrating that must of been for the Hitman to have a arsehole of a ref shouting orders at you as you try to work to the body up close.
    There's no dought whatsoever that Cortez absolutely WRECKED one of the most anticipated fights in the last 10-15 years!TOTALLY CRAP CORTEZ!A great Boxing referee should always act as a ghost by only appearing in the fight when totally necessary i.e LOW BLOWS,HEADBUTS,ELBOWS,THROWING,RABBIT PUNCHES,CLINCHING for too long!He should always have a sence of not being there in the same ring in any fight.Thats part of the job!
