    This is going to be a PPV isn't it?

        SON OF A *****!

        It will be two against one just like PBF and Cortez vs Ricky Hatton.

        Calzaghe is screwed.

        Now I have to go with B-Hop. I was picking Calzaghe to win but knowing that Joe Cortez will be helping B-Hop along the way, I have to change my pick. Grrrrrr!

          I dont think people are "******ed" for expressing concern that Joe "I am Biased but Biased" Cortez will be Reffing this fight..

          Not ******ed at all..
          Seriously after the Tszyu fight, where Hatton could have shanked Tzsyu on the inside and gotten away with it, why would people even cry about it?

          Because other than the point deduction you talked about (which had no impact), and a bad break in round 2, I saw Cortez doing his job.

              I don't know if that's good or bad. It just makes for an ugly fight. Hopkins likes to hold after throwing 3-4 punches put Calzaghe holds to stop his opponents rhythm.

                  Hmmm...
                  I cannot figure out if this is good or bad cause i dunno, I think that Cortez will warn and deduct points from Hopkins for fouls. But what he did to Hatton, while it wasn;t that bad...he was telling Rik off for fouls by Mayweather so i hope he does not do that to Joe.

                  Really i rekon this is a good thing for Calzaghe cause Cortez will probably tell Bernard off for illegal tactics...Hes a good ref that has lost credibilty cause of the Hatton-Mayweather fight. Shame really

                    I mean did Hatton fans forget that Cortez reffed the Castillo fight too? No cries of bias then was there?

                    Esecially when Castillo got deducted a point for no reason.
