1 of the best although i consider Smoger THE best. Lots of love for Bayless and i hope he keeps doing a great job for many years to come. Shoutout to Tony Weeks as well.
The crazy thing is he had a very, very severe case of prostate cancer like ten years ago. I read a feature in Ring Magazine from 2006 and apparently his prognosis was very grave but he pulled it out. Bayless says he jogs daily and eat healthy. He confessed that a lot of fights are very physically demanding. Funnily, he said that Bernard Hopkins was the hardest guy to ref. He claimed he was so sore he could hardly get out of bed the day after refing the Hopkins-Vanderpool fight. And he commented that Barrera-Morales was the most brutal/thrilling contest he'd ever done.
