    Every time i watch an old classic fight from the 70's and 80's i see that Carlos Padilla is the referee...almost every time he seems to be trying to steal some limelite for himself...

    In Ali Frazier he is CONSTANTLY pulling and hacking at the fighters gloves when they are clinching...in Sanchez vs Gomez he delays the fight for several minutes to piontlessly ask who the chief second is...the list goes on.

    Was this the worst / most ridiculous referee ever? Guy seems like a complete ******* to me.

    Cortez, Nady, Cole Mercante Jr, *insert british ref* are all in a disgusting league of their own.

    At least Padilla stopped Ali from pushing off and holding in the Frasier fight. He allowed it to be the fight that it was rather than a repeat of the second fight.

    If Padilla reffed a Wlad fight you can be sure he wouldn't stand for that clinching ****.

    Another is capuccino when he was old. It's like having a statue as a referee.
