Getting behind your countryman is beta and **** boy? Just quit

You live vicariously through them online though and try to call other people "beta" when you probably look like this....



New England does the same, it's a bit odd.

I did have a phone like that in hs. But why do you assume I'm white? Lol. And living vicariously through them? How so

Got you covered

[The Big Dunn]

especially when they just fu-cked up in the previous fights. maybe they think he's due for a good performance?

Dude, you are complaining about the ref for a floyd fight again? Man, you will literally do anything when discrediting floyd. WTF?

[BrometheusBob.]

Shouldn't there be some kind of general rule that you can't ref the same fighter so many times in a row?

That sounds like a totally reasonable rule.

EDIT: Not because of Bayless/Floyd, just seems like a generally preferable thing. Also worth rotating judges.

Who the **** is talking about you? Sounds like I may have touched a nerve.

Floyd defense force? Hardly. If loons like you wouldn't post unreasonable ****, I won't have to spend time retorting.

Lol yeah, you hit the nail on the head buddy. That's exactly how he comes across. Appreciating black athletes and their talent is one thing, having them as your avatar/signature and constantly defending them on an internet forum is an entirely different thing altogether.

Bayless, 64, of Las Vegas, is used to being under an intense spotlight. He has refereed many major fights, including the two biggest-selling pay-per-view bouts in history, both of which were Mayweather fights -- against Oscar De La Hoya in 2007 and Canelo Alvarez in 2013. Mayweather-Pacquiao is expected to break the record once again.

Bayless, who will be paid $25,000 for the night's work, has officiated five Mayweather bouts (added by me-floyd/manny makes 6 fights), the other ones being his rematch against Marcos Maidana last September, Shane Mosley in 2010 and his 1996 professional debut against Roberto Apodaca.

Bayless has also refereed seven Pacquiao fights (added by me 8 with floyd/Manny): Timothy Bradley II (2014), Juan Manuel Marquez IV (2012) and II (2008), Mosley (2011), Miguel Cotto (2009), Ricky Hatton (2009) and Erik Morales II (2006).

I bet you fantasize about that often, don't you.

So more Pac fights then Floyd fights but that doesnt matter because Bayless, regardless of fight, is one of the best.

I do like the idea of what someone else posted about using different refs in next fights though.

True, I just posted that for the daggum's of NSB.

I do think refs and judges should not judge back to back fights. Selection of refs and judges should be random, with a smaller pool to select for "big" fights.
