Who is the best Referee?

[hammerhiem]

I didn't Know Mickey Vann retired... That sucks he was a good ref, had a good eye for when a fighter's spirit had gone and they needed the fight stopped before they got hurt.

Also had the ability to be anonymous when the fighters wanted to fight up close and not break it up every three seconds.

I have them in this order

1.Tony Weeks
2.Steve Smoger
3.kenny Bayless
4.Bengie Estevez
5.Luis Pabon
6.Joe Cortez
7.Jorge Alonzo
8.Jay Nady
9.Vic Drakculich
10.Richard Steele

Mills Lane trumps all of them

[Fox McCloud]

I voted Cortez just to piss everyone off.

How in god's name can Bayless be second? That dude is legitimately afraid to do his job.

Mills Lane trumps all of them

These are active referees. Lane hasn't worked a fight in about 10 years.

i know... but when i think of great refs he comes to mind 1st

I haven't seen much work from Benji Estevez but from the few fights I have seen of him he's done good work. I guess he would be #3 on my list.

PS I had no clue Joe Cortez was Puertorican... On behalf of PR I apologize for such an inept, clueless ref. Cortez shames my people at about the same level as Ricky Martin and J-Lo.

Didnt Joe Cortez win referee of the year some time ago? He has been in a lot of big fights, thats for sure.

Personally I didnt vote because I dont know any of these guys

Well Im sorry that helping other human beings puts shame on you.

Ricky Martin may not be that great of a singer as he is sex icon and dancer but he is downright the best humanitarian out there. I believe Chayanne is a better singer and dancer than his fellow ex-Menudo. J-Lo was great as a singer, dancer and a decent actor.

I havent watched Joe Cortez long enough to judge him, and I dont like judging people as bad people or jerks, even if they are PNP. You just have to live with them.

[Jexy55]

Smoger without doubt.

Mills Lane is my all time favorite ("I'll allow it!"). But I do like Tony Weeks. Haven't seen him make too many mistakes and he is a pretty fair ref.
