Comments Thread For: Joe Cortez Feels Vargas Should Get Bradley Rematch

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Hall of Fame retired referee Joe Cortez believes a rematch is in order for the welterweight fight between Timothy Bradley and Jessie Vargas, which took place last month for the vacant WBO championship at the StubHub Center in Carson, California.

Bradley had control of the fight for most of the rounds but found himself in serious trouble in the final minute of the twelfth. A right hand caught him right on the chin and had him in trouble. Vargas, knowing he was behind on the cards, was trying to do what he could to finish the fight. Referee Pat Russell thought he had heard the final bell and accidently stopped the fight with eight seconds or so remaining.

Whenever you need a ****ty opinion, you can always count on Joe Cortez. At least he can't ruin live fights anymore .

Seriously if Vargas was smart he would move the **** on. Does he really want back to back losses to the same guy?

cortez is prob the worst ref of all time

[Corelone]

Uh. NO. He already had him and got outworked, outboxed, outsmarted. He landed one lucky punch and now feels he can undo 11 ugly rounds with one blow, the next time.

And I feel Joe Cortez should get a punch in the face.

[Pocket Dogs!]

Even if Tim was knocked down during the final seconds, Vargas would still have lost. So nope, no rematch.

Don't be sleeping on Shady Nady either, that dude is dicey. And long before Cortez got in his groove, Richard 'DKP' Steele was giving masterclasses in sh@te refereeing.
