    i like it when someone said something like

    JOE CORTEZ featuring Mayweather & Hatton LOL

    he gave hatton fans an excuse. even though the outcome would be no different.

    That may be true but the guy has been absolute **** in a lot of big fights, trying to create a storyline for himself while losing control of the fight or ****ing up, yet he always got a lot of big fights.
    The best thing this guy ever did for boxing was not jump in to stop marquez in round 1 vs pac in 2004.

    He was a horrifying train-wreck of a referee. Thank SNV.

    Should have stopped couple of years ago while in his prime.
    became incredibly inconsistent
    didn't catch blatant fouls
    and seemed to have less and less control with every big fight he refereed

    My only regret is he didn't ref a Gevor fight so he didn't get filled in after the fight
