Team Pavlik get Ref booted from Hopkins fight!

Well that's a good thing if Hopkins happens to be friends with that ref, from watching Legandary Nights Chavez/Taylor episode there were rumors that Richard Steele and Don King were friends and obviously the controvertial ending seemed like it confirmed that so the commission did the right thing in this case.

 

Who are they replacing him with?, this is the only site I found confirming this by the way.

 

Understandable if the referee is a friend of Hopkins.. They should throw Kenny Bayless in there..

 

Smoger should do good. This is official, various other sites confirming it too, thanks for sharing.

 

Anybody but arthur mercante

 

Pavlik should push for Nady.

 

nicely put and you're quite right.

 

I'm pretty sure that it won't be either Nady or Weeks; both of them are Vegas referees. I really hope they get Smoger.

 

Yeah, good news that Hopkins' boy is out of there. Smoger is from the AC area, so it wouldn't be very hard to have him do this one. My choice also, BTW.

When do you think we'll know who gets the job? Prob Friday sometime...

 

:good

 

Yeah, Nady would be sure Hop doesn't pull his dirty tricks out of his old bag.
