Why in the World would May and Ortiz picked Cortez as the ref?

Garcia says they chose him, take it up with him. The Athletic state commission picks the ref you dim wit. Both may and Ortiz gets a list of refs and they can voice their concerns and then the athletic state commission makes the final call. Even Ortiz's manager backed this up. But yeah you're right Mayweather controls the Athletic State Commission too. Apparently Garcia is the most credible source of information.... smh.

that dude who'd tried to answer all the questions properly (LOL) on ortiz' team said they dont choose. watch the post presser. homie looked pissed. probably blasted them right after for being so unclear and not faking it well enough...or too fake??

the fighters dont pick the refs, who keeps telling you guys this sh1t?? Garcia says they chose him, take it up with him.

i thought may picked cortez cause he was lenient on the elbows/pushoffs that floyd does. and garcia tryna bring it up all the time sorta looked like an act. come to think of it........i think floyd put all this garbage in this fight to prove a whole list of **** he does to everyone wrong.... like him being dirty.....make ortiz be the dirty one fight old guys.....24 yr old fight small guys.......164 backpedalling....aggressor this fight he said "oritz wants a knockout, then i want a knockout, there will be a knock out"......theres a knockout....and then even says at the post-presser "you guys asked for a knock out, i gave you one" he even mentions most of the other **** that people call him out for at the post-press i think it connects too well right now. tried to fit it all in one package. i dont think he wanted it to exactly happen the way it did but whatever, made more hype anyway.

Ortiz picked Cortez. I heard it on the radio, I think it may have been Keiran Mulvaney who said it. I guess the thinking that Cortez was so criticized for being pro-Floyd in the Hatton fight that he would overcompensate towards Ortiz. Didn't seem to work out so well!

i know why mayweather wanted cortez but i have no idea why ortiz would agree to have him ref. that's when i knew he didn't care about actually winning. any b-side who lets that joker ref their fight deserves to lose. I think he wanted to win and I don't think he quit but I don't think he wanted to win badly, he wasn't ready to die in there by any means.

Ortiz had a choice of 6 refs, it came down to Cortez and some guy Burke. Maybe they just went with the latino? I have no idea, but in choosing Cortez they signed their own death warrant for this fight.

wow didn't know he picked everything!

Froyd "Cheapshot" Gayweather picked: The Venue The Referee The Glove's The Judges The Ring Size etc etc etc. Gayweather cant win a fight legitly, so he needs to act like a Mayweather. Mayweather (definition): a low life scum who's family tree is full of criminals and illiterate retards who think that money buys someone class. Have no honor, or respect for anyone including its own family, will kill their own brother/mother/sister for $20. So Floyd picked Cortez because he is a Mayweather it was the gloves that pissed me off most and really the only thing before the fight started. I was expecting Vic to wear Reyes like he did vs Berto (YES I believe gloves make a difference), but whatever he signed the contract and I paid to watch it, so... I didn't expect Cortez to act like a twat after all that scrutiny...wrong again.

I say fishy cuz for me Cortez is the worst ref he has imposed himself in fights and erroneously, not fair for fighters...
