    Who's your favorite referee

    who is your favorite ref to officiate a bout, my choice is steve smoger whenever tito trinidad fights and steve was fair enough to warn tyson to keep his punches up vs nielsen in denmark.

    of course, there's "im fair but im firm" joe cortez, who has made so many bad calls, and jay nady with his salute and ****** smile whenever introduced as the third man in the ring makes you wonder he's going to screw the fight.

      Any reasonable fan or boxing expert will tell you Steve Smoger is the best in the business. He's pretty much the only guy I can't recall ****ing up big time. Cortez is close, but he ruled Pacquiao's cut from a punch in the first Morales fight, which was a horrendous call.

        He had a stroke unfortunately. He is alive but in poor condition.

          I think a better question is who is the worst referee, your least favorite?

          Is it the guy from Lewis-Tyson, who was trying to help Mike? Is it Jay Nady, who lets some fighters get murdered (Fernando Vargas vs. Felix Trinidad) and saves others who are completely fine (Derrick Gainer vs. Diego Corrales)? Is it Richard Steele, who has become notorious for stopping fights too early (although I don't recall any early stoppages other than Tyson-Ruddock I)?

            If you have a big fight and it needs to be done right your man is Kenny Bayless, no doubt about it!
