    If Micky Vann was ref would it make a diff

    Micky Vann lets the fighters get on with it, not jumping in a any opportunity, would this have made a diffrence to the fight, probably not, but it's worth thinking about
    just trying to help out our Ricky.

    Joe Cortez is the best referee out there

      I am using ammeter rules here but I am pretty sure they also apply to the pros:

      Cortez was right jumping in when he did. You can box out of a clinch, but once it becomes a hold (grabbing and holding on to an appendage) you have to step in. Again, Cortez would let them go at it as long as they weren't holding so I say he did a good job.

      In any case, Mayweather showed he could fight on the inside if need be so I am not sure how much difference it would have ultimately made if another referee was involved.

        micky vann is completely biased towards frank warren fighters. if you think cortez was biased towards floyd vann is even more biased.

            yes but would he have left the fight to the fighters, and is it right to doc points for punching the ropes.

              I think it would have been different... Hatton would have been knocked down b4 8.
