Good choice for referee, I like David Fields

I particularly remember him when he was the referee for Cotto vs Torres

Common sense at the end of the day.

Thank God it's not Howard Foster or Ian John Lewis or someone like that

No CJ Ross?

Nice. Tbh, our refs are mainly awful so its good to get one of our American cousins in there. Especially for this as I'd imagine a solid, clean punch from either fighter is likely to wobble the other such is their size and power, you can't have Howard Foster Jr jumping in there in an event of this magnitude.

Steve Weisfeld used to work for HBO, I hope he doesn't turn in a card that is biased towards the fighter with HBO connections.

David Fields lets fights continue. He was the referee for Cotto vs Torres and Torres got dropped 3 times, Cotto dropped 1 time. Both fighters were hurt pretty much through out the fight, particularly Cotto on two separate occasions. And David Fields gave each fighter as much opportunity to fight on even though they were hurt. Great choice of referee for Joshua-Klitschko.

I don't think this fight will need judges.
