    At least Joe Cortez isn't coming out of retirement to handle.

    I'm sorry. I meant Mayweather! Obviously not Maidana lol he clearly lost. But for having one of the score cards 111-117 Mayweather..that's just ridiculous.

    Fixed it :)

    It's going to be insane how much protection Mayweather gets.

    Bayless is no less than Floyd's personal referee. This s_u_c_k_s for Manny, and the fight. Balyess has always protected Floyd and will no doubt go out of his way to do so May 2nd. This fight just bombed. Bayless is awfully biased.

    Has Roach or Arum commented about the Ref & Judges yet?

    It might not turn out all bad. Bayless knows the world will be watching, and might actually be more favorable towards Pacquiao to avoid the appearance of being for Mayweather.

    Why do I have this strange feeling Kenny Bayless will pull off his mask and Skip Bayless will be laughing at Floyd after he hands the fight to Manny?

    oh come on, don't defend Mayweather's clinching, he used it excessively in the second Maidana fight and often he lunged at Maidana to hold and grab him. It certainly wasn't holding only when Maidana tried to smother him.

    I don't know who these judges are and Kenny Bayless seems to be a good pick. All i would like to see is no excessive clinching. I know you believe Pac will be hard to clinch but if Pac hurts Floyd early on and his speed nd power start to worry Floyd, i can certainly see floyd clinching and you can't avoid it, even with Manny's quick feet.

    All i want is a fair fight, no dirty tactics or excessive clinching and i'm trusting Kenny to do his job. Floyd is the bigger guy so my main concern is Floyd using his size to hold and frustrate Manny.

    I'm fine with Bayless as ref. However, Im not convinced with Moretti and Clements. They scored Floyd to high in his first fight with Maidana. They should have gotten Adalaide Byrd or Jerry Roth

    Steve Smoker would have been a good choice.

    I do not like what Bayless was doing in May-Maidana II. That was some biased ****. Now, as a reward he gets this huge fight :patsch

    The 117-111 margin in favour of May is inexcusable.Now as a reward , the judge gets this huge fight. :patsch

    I am starting to think there is something wrong with the Nevada Commission there.
