Kenny Bayless > All refs
but smoger is good too

[Wiley Hyena]

It won't be a flash knockdown, it will be a clean right straight to the skull, I can't freaking wait for this fight.

Well we're almost there. The boys have some big butterflys going about right now.

Edit: I guess this means Smoger is out for Hatton/Floyd? Let's hope not.

Nice to see Smoger in this fight. You know it won't be stopped prematurely. He did a good job in the Miranda/Pavlik fight except he gave Miranda a long time to recover, but otherwise he did good. Good to see him in this fight.

Someone can end up dead in the ring with smoger as a ref. And thats not a positive note, thats a negative one. That ref is so slow at stopping fights

yes, so lets put one of calzaghes refs in so whenever a fighter put his hands up to block punches, he stops the fight..

excellent idea

[juancho]

i hope Cortez or Kenny referees Marquez vs Vasquez III,i hope to God that it wont be Nady,Smoger is cool too

[MightyMikeA]

Oh, good ****! I was worried that HBO would try to protect their stock (Taylor), but now with Smoger in the ring I can rest easy.....

[LiLHopkins]

good thing that it isn't Jay Nady.

Anyway, I like Smoger. He's good for boxing...bad for fighter's safety.

STEVE SMOGER, yes, STEVE SMOGER to ref the big fight tonight!!!!!!!!!!!!

THANK GOD!!! I can stop worrying about Pavlik getting up from a flash knockdown a little wobbly and having an inexperienced ref jump in a stop it!!!

Same thing I thought when I read it...'Hell Yeah!'

THANK GOD!!! I can stop worrying about Pavlik getting up from a flash knockdown a little wobbly and having an inexperienced ref jump in a stop it!!!

Amen. Smoger is definitely the best ref for big fights. We don't have to worry about another Calzaghe/Manfredo situation with him in the ring.
