Kenny Bayless Needs to Get Demoted

Heru16y ago

He's reffed pretty much every big fight the last couple of years, yet he seemed just as jittery as Shane. Some of the breaks were too quick and his constant hassling and jumping in seemed to get on Mosley and Mayweather's nerves. It would have been OK to warn and, perhaps, penalize Mosley for holding, but not constantly warn him for being physical when Mayweather also was doing his thing. Tony Weeks should get the nod for the next big fight, he's underrated.

Bayless: 'punch out of it' then Bayless jumps straight in to break them up he was shit.

He was alright but he could have let them fight a lil more on the inside.

IMO he did a great job to make to the fight exciting and break to save valuable seconds that can be wasted on hugging. i agree. i thought he did fine. he said if he saw "hard" grabs, he'd jump in and break it up. soft grabs, he'd allow the fighters to fight out.

Tony Weeks is a punch nervous refree now since Levander Johnson died in one of his fights. This thread is way off. He made a horrible stoppage in the Alvarez-Cotto fight last night. This thread is really suprising to say the least.

He did allow infighting. He didn't allow the pushing and holding though. He would say "Fight it out fight it out"

Bayless did a fine job, May and Mosley weren't doing shit anyway during the clinches or when they were inside, and their heads were making contact a lot Bayless did a fine job Bayless did fine overall but he never really gave them a chance to fight inside.

wasn't as bad as Joe Cortez in the May-Hatton fight... but your right, we wanted to see them hugging and love-tapping their ribs.

he kept on warning shane for putting his head down but it was floyd who kept on pushing shanes head down to drain the energy off a 39 year old fighter & bayless probably warned floyd only once.

He is a good ref but maybe he helped mayweather kinda, but tony weeks is good too, but Arthur Mecante Jnr is a great i like him a lot, hope he does khan vs malignaggi cause he always does MSG fights

Bayless did great as usual. If he didn't break it up, it would have been like a Hopkins fight. AND we all know that posters in ths forum love Hopkins fight style.

Yo I swear. Your the 1st to mention this on here, I thought it was me. He never allowed them to fight off the clinches. He got really annoying a few times when they both had their hands free and he'd jump in between them. He's too jittery and erratic. He must make some fighters even more nervous, seeing this guy jumping around and getting close in their peripheral.

Bayless is a great ref but i agree. Last night, he was too quick to break up the clinches and didn't let either man get anything going on the inside.

He was ok I guess...but he never allowed any inside fighting...maybe cuz Shane was bullrushing but still...
