    Cappuccino = Old School

    Imagine if Joe Cortez had been the ref for that fight? :patsch

    And yes, Kenny Bayless is also a great ref.

    **** Richard Steel for the Tyson-Ruddock premature stoppage and the favortism he show'd Sugar Ray Leonard in the Hagler fight. Clearly one of Don King's "hired workers".

    My favorite refs
    Kenny Bayless
    Mills Lane
    Steve Smoger
    Arthur Mercante

    I can say I'm surprised this thread made is 6 posts without one of these pics.

    Bayless is no doubt a good ref.

    Mills Lane---only time i didn't like him was when he DQ tyson in the rematch with holyfield. I know he had a good reason after tyson bit holyfields ear but i just wanted to see the fight end with someone getting KTFO:lol:
