Mills Lane all time best. But, at the moment I have to say Kenny. I really like his work.

joe cortez I hope your joking.

Whenever I heard the name Joe Cortez, I can easily remember many greatest boxing fights that are already a part of boxing history . He truly deserve to be in the boxing hall of fame based upon on his previous achievements as a referee. However, I was really surprised on how Joe Cortez can easily hide his favoritism. Although it was not obvious, one can truly agree with my observations that in the TWO previous fights of Manny Pacquiao the referee have shown favoritism against Manny Pacquiao. The first one was during the first Paquiao Vs. Barera fights. Although Cortez was not the referee of that fight, he was the referee in the fight of Manny Pacquiao Vs. Juan Manuel Marquez. If this fight were between two Mexican fighters, or even between two African American fighters, Joe Cortez could probably handled this fight differently. Joe Cortez showed his favoritism to Juan Manuel Cortez by counting slowly. If the situation was the reversed and Pacquiao was the one who have been knockdown THREE times during the first round. Cortez by his reputation could have been just stepped in and stop the fight. This is only an opinion and does not reflects the views of other people, but it is something to think about, especially he (Cortez)will be included in the Hall of Fame. Posted by Larry Brown, Fullerton,California U.S.A. this is from that wikipedia page. I have to admit, that is pretty ****ing pathetic. I seriously hate those dumbass Pacquiao fans. Cortez could have taken a point away from Pacquiao and let Marquez get a break if he wanted to because Pacquiao hitting Marquez while he was down. I have a thing about Richard Steele tho...he always seemed to not care much about low blows, as long as it wasnt around the balls area. not that it matters much, I thought he was an excellent ref, just an impression i got from seeing him ref fights. ________ New Mexico Dispensaries

Mills Lane, Tony Weeks, Richard Steele, Steve Smoger and Sparkle Lee. I hate Cortez, Bayless, Nady and Drakulich.

richard steele as well.

Joe "I am fair but firm" Cortez or Smoger get my pick.

mills lane. i love when he sees boxers clinching he's like " HEY HEY HEY C'MON BREAK IT UP, LETS FIGHT " in that loud voice :lol1:

Cortez works for the Nevada State Atlethic Comm. ohh ok thanx bro

definitely him. I meant as of right now, but that works too. that guy knew what he was doin. Steve Smoger is the best, and smartest in the sport IMO. He lets important fights like Miranda-Pavlik go on until the issue is 100% settled. And he stops Unimportant fights at the right time, as to allow those guys to continue making a living.

Joe Cortez and Steve Smoger.

Frank Cappacino gets 3rd for me.
