      Well, you should be able to keep time with a red light signifying 5 seconds left in the fight going off in your face. If you can't see it 5 feet away and flashing, you shouldn't be reffing.

          waaaaa waaaaaa waaaaaaaa


          ITS NOT HIS JOB. His job is to protect the fighter and when you ask a fighter if he is ok and you get nothing you stop the fight. No matter if there is 2:50 left or .05 left.

            The worst referee in a fight was the idiot French ref that did the McClellan vs. Benn fight

              How was Eddie Cotton a bad ref for the Lewis Vs Tyson fight. i think he called it just right. Lewis got a point deducted for holding in the 5th round, that was the right call and the KO was a count out, that was all fair.

                Yeah Nady is crap, far too fussy and always warning somebody for something. Roger Tillerman from Germany also had a shocker in the Ottke/Reid fight, how can you warn a guy for punching??? Even though I haven't seen him for a while Toby Gibson always pissed me off as well.

                  We can make complaints about many of the Refs. I LIKE Tony Orlando. Steele has had quite a few bad calls, but he has also had many great fights. Freddy Steinwinder III has been bad the last few fights I have seen him do. Arthur Mercante and his friggn son suck! They are always biased towards the house fighter. Seem to warn the oppenents more. And stop fights when the underdog or non-house fighter gets rocked. Don't like either one of them.
