      Cortez is a personal friend of mine and he's a great ref. Stand up guy and his life story is a great one.

      He deserves to be inducted.

        Cortez is a weak referee. Now I wasn't always there to watch him ref, but my recent memory reminds me how bad he can be...

            Should a referee be inducted in any Hall of Fame?

                I think he's a great referee , I hate clinching , holding so it's great with a referee that doesn't look at the other side when that happens

                  if one arm is free you don't break them up. Cortez doesn't understand that rule. he breaks as soon as bodies touch.

                  on friday on showbox the lateef kayode fight was a great example of that, kayode's opponent kept trying to tie him up, kayode had one arm free and he would just smash godfrey with it repeatedly. ref didn't do anything.

                    Is that true?? Because if it is, YAY for Joe Cortez... HOF or Bust. Would be happy if I never saw him in another ring ever again...

                      he used to do an OK job of reffing fights


                      but lately i've grown to despise him

                      he clearly robbed chino maidana of the advantage in the 10th of his fight with khan

                      khan wasn't strong enough to keep both of maidana's arms tied up and he should have been allowed to punch with his free hand.


                      he tries to impose his imprint on the fight, which in my eyes is the last thing you want to do as a ref


                      if you're reffing a clean and even fight without clinches the crowd should forget you're even in the ring.
