Joke of the decade... When does a **** referee get his best work..? Just after a run of **** refereeing performances.... Joe Cortez is the third man in the Klitschko v Thompson fight.. Why the ****..???????
I dont think it will be too bad. Klitschko either clinches a lot or very little. It's kind of win win. If he does like mid range. or Thompon fights like Hatton we might have a prob.
Depends which Cortez turns up, the "break, you looked like you were about to start throwing punches and then a clinch might have happened" one from the Hatton fight or the "now now Bernard, if you keep cuddling for another 30 seconds there's a possibility I might have to ask you to stop" Hopkins version. Or it could be the one from the Soto fight and he'll randomly disqualify someone for something that happens all the time....
I dont think the hatton fight was that bad. I think he stopped hatton because he knew Hatton to be very dirty. I think it will be fine. Klitschko jab keeps the distance.
Go watch the fight again, you can't stop something that hasn't happend yet! He broke them every single time Hatton worked himself inside, and said nothing when maywether was blatantly measuring hatton with his arm and using his elbows to push hattons face away Cortez is a Joke and needs to be black listed from title fights I'm actualy nervous about what he'll pull in this fight
He'll probably overcompensate, and someone will go out on a stretcher. Most likely, it'll be a fight where the ref doesn't have to do much apart from count the 10 and the people that appointed Cortez will triumphantly claim he did a great job and their faith was well-placed. I actually like Cortez, but mainly for his work in the 90s. He's been going steadily downhill for years now.
