Why does this guy interfere when the fight finally gets heated and exciting, yesterday he called time because fighters were talking smack in the middle of the ring. I hope he retires along with his boss Floyd.
im a big floyd fan but even tonight i think it was one of the middle rounds i watched him let mayweather hold with 1 hand and tee off on berto for 3 or so punches. berto was using his forearm like classic mayweather at times but neither got points taken off. i just felt like blatent **** like that deserves a point or at the very least a hard warning "thats the last time ill warn you, next time its points" other then that he is a great ref. and made improvements tonight for something he is normally crucified for which is not letting fighters work out of the clinch. we voted him as one of if not the best ref in the bizz before floyd v maidana 2. and now idiots paint him as the worst which really shows how much they watch
He looked biased to me, I remember in one of the rounds Floyd was the one holding yet he told Berto to stop? Berto just looked at him like "Are you serious?". Robert Byrd IMO is the best ref in the game.
