    I dunno for his entire career but for the past 5-6 years, he's been the most terrible in my opinion.

    Cortez would appear the be the leader in this race, but im always a lil hesitant to critize these ref's or judges. They have an extremly hard job and sitting at home watching a fight on tv while drinking and blabbering on with friends is a whole lot different than actually being there. They don't have the advantage of camera angles, commentators etc, to help with the split second decisions they make. Some of these decisions and actions by the ref's and judges do appear unexcusable but once again easy to say from your chair at home. Hell in this past fight if the roles were reversed and ortiz ko'ed floyd after a headbutt. Cortez would be a hero right now....tough gig is all im sayin, i couldn't do it so i won't be so quick to slam cortez for his bonehead moves

    Joe Walcott's performance in Ali-Liston II represents the low point as near as I can figure.

    Alfredo Garcia Perez is definitively the worst ref I have ever seen … and let see who can beat me on that:

    And I would agree with this view if it didn't seem like cortez made bonehead moves in every other fight he refs...and obviously it can be done properly because you don't ever hear someone badmouth smogger.

    Walcott was right! He didn't start the count because Ali refused to go to a neutral corner, therefore he doesn't have to count!

    Nat Fleischer told Walcott that Liston had been down more than 10 and he stopped the fight. He was a victim of inexperience rather than bad refereeing.

    I'm surprised no one has mentioned Laurence Cole yet. The guy's truly horrible as a ref.
