Kenny Bayless, considered to be one of the best referees in boxing, is the leading candidate to officiate the May 5th main event at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas, Nevada - which pits WBA junior middleweight king Miguel Cotto (37-2, 30KOs) against five-division world champion Floyd Mayweather Jr. (42-0, 26KOs).

In Before "Anyone but Joe Cortez".

Not bad......

[JmH Reborn]

I was hoping for Smoger...he would let things ride

Hopefully having Kenny Bayless ref it this time is the 3rd time is the charm for Cotto. Kenny Bayless is what is his true kryptonite

Smoger is the best with Bayless 2nd

100% controversy-free.

Good choice. You never know Bayless is in there, sign of good referee. Tony Weeks wouldn't be bad either. It won't be Smoger since it's in Nevada and I don't like Nady, Cortez, or Drakulich that much.

Smolger and Bengy "rat tail" Estavez do east coast fights pretty much all the time I think.
