    Remember when Kenny Bayless was a top 2 ref?

    I do. And he was hardly, if ever seen during a fight. Tonight, he put himself lower than Lawrence Cole. Dude actually sprinted like Usain Bolt to break up 2 guys who weren't even touching. It's not at all surprising though. Everyone, has a price.

    Yeah man I had him right behold Smoger as my favorite ref. He was awful tonight. Way too involved. I just wanted to see a good fight tonight I didn't want to see a ref.

      kenny bayless has always been allergic to any form of inside fighting, this wasn't a new low for him. i watch enough boxing to know that there are plenty of great referees out there that don't get the same hype this guy does. a lot of casual fans overrate him because he's associated with a lot of pacquiao and mayweather PPV fights and he makes less ******ed calls than lawrence cole.

        It was unreal how he couldn't wait to jump in and break them up. One time he broke them and neither guy was holding the other, they were shoulder to shoulder and ready to throw and he flew in and pushed maidana back..it was utterly ridiculous

              Bayless drives a late model Toyota Avalon...can't wait to see what he's driving next.

                  I called it before the fight. Maidana had everything against him before he even stepped into that large ring.

                    Yeah, but this is what happens to referees: they have a bad night or 2 and are thrown under the bus. It happened with Richard Steele (Chavez-Taylor and Tyson-Ruddock stoppages), that bald headed ref with the gruff voice that only docked Tyson 2 points for biting off Holyfield's ear, Joe Quartez screwed up somewhere along the line, Smoger let someone get beaten for longer than he should have, etc.

                    There's no doubt Bayless had a shit night tonight, but being a ref is a thankless job: no one remembers when you did a good job, but everyone remembers when you screwed up.
