Ref For Cotto vs Margarito Fight Announced

[LEGION]

Good choice. Anyone but Jay Lady or Snoretez would of been fine with me.

[Markusdarkus]

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.

[Bukom Battler]

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.

[C-Lo]

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.

[Spicoli]

I'll take duck butt over Cortez, or Nady, any day!!!

Good choice!!!

I thought Cortez did an okay job with Klitschko-Thompson.

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?

Notice, he even refrained from using his self absorbed catch phrase at the start..I think he must have recieved a "Talking Too" About Time ! Bayliss is a really top notch pick for Margarito/Cotto.....Cotto will be able to hear him counting

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.

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?

I like Raul Caiz Jr, just lets them get on with it.

The last big fight i see him in was Calzaghe v Lacy.

[amat]

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.

[GAME]

I was just waiting for it to be Cortez!

Thats what I thought

Bayliss is a good ref. Even if he does have a temper .

Lol... You really can't ask for a better ref for a scrap like this is gonna be.

[boozeboxer]

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.

This isn't a bad post. I would CC you if I wasn't in a SC war.
