    Will be paid 25k, posted on Fight News. Judges selected too

    Quote:

    On Tuesday the NSAC selected the officials and set the fees for the May 2 at the MGM Grand Garden Arena for the WBC WBO and WBA world welterweight championship between Floyd Mayweather and Manny Pacquiao. The referee will be Kenny Bayless. Judges are Bert Clements, Dave Moretti and Glenn Feldman. Bayless will make $25,000, judges make $20,000 each.

    Discuss (because we know you will)

    moretti and clements gave floyd ridiculous scorecards for maidana one when it was a close fight. moretti 116-112 clements 117-111
     
  3. Kenny Bayless used to be the top dog of boxing refs, but his performance in the Maidana rematch was utterly disgraceful.

    :twisted:

    I only trust in Smoger.

    Do we have any more stats on these judges scorecards as they relate to either May or Pac?

    is asking for a fair ref to much to ask for?

    what fight?

    floyd will back out because 700 tickets havent been dispersed to the public and the brokers cant sell all theirs at ridic markups....plus he didnt even try to promote it.....lucky if it woulda done 1.5 mil....but all that is moot...fight not happening....ref irrelevant

    Forget it this is yet another Vegas/Floyd bull**** robbery. Manny is going to get shafted like all other Mayweather opponents have been. I'm surprised really that Vegas would show the world the corruption
    All I hope & pray is Manny can knock Floyd out cold because that's the only way I think he can win. Even then Bayless might DQ Manny for punching Floyd who knows. My opinion is its blatant robbery

    I checked this out and it actually doesn't look SUPER bad (minus Clements). Moretti has judged a lot of their fights and he seems very balanced. This dude Feldman is a bit of a wild card but I think he'll be alright.

    I think everyone should wait until post-fight to start crying robbery and fix.

    Yup, Floyd's gonna pull a 'This Is It'!

    Seriously though, no ticket sales at this point is pretty wild, but if it goes ahead the venue will be packed out.

    Why do you think Feldman's a wildcard? He's judged an awful lot of big fights and has done a good job for the most part IMO.
