    Roger Tilleman.
    Les Fear who oversaw Dib-Yamaguchi also warrants a mention.
    For those of you who haven't seen it:

    Terrible. And Dibs a low life piece of **** too. I look forward to him getting in the ring with JuanMa or Gamboa so he can get his head knocked off but I doubt he'll ever get a shot at the big time again with his ***** preformance against Leuvano.

    For a seasoned ref, Terry O'Connor might be up there. Some of his 'greatest hits':

    Calzaghe-Manfredo
    Fury-McDermott
    Williams-Skelton
    Williams-Sprott I


    Laurence Cole is probably my least favorite of the major refs right now.

    Worst single-night performances by seasoned refs (not including things like the Williams-Airich debacle) were probably Randy Neumann in Abraham-Miranda I and Roger Tilleman in Ottke-Reid.

    Seconded. Hadn't watched this fight, even Dib's fans went "ooooooooooohhhh" when they saw the replay. First time I see a ref counting out a fighter who got caught while on his knees. ****ing disgrace for the ref and that sack of **** Dib.

    Don't know about ever,but the worst I've ever seen is Dave Parriss.The manner in which he reffed the Barrera-Khan,Tzsyu-Hatton and Rogan-Sexton fights is beyond shameful and excusable.

    It's only the Hatton fans that think Cortez is a bad referee. Joe Cortez is world class! I haven't seen any indignation against Dave Parris for the Kostya Tszyu fight, or any against John Foster for saving Hatton's arse against Juan " The Hispanic Causing Panic" Lazcano.

    the ref in the danny williams fight against that Konstatine (sp?) guy, holy **** worst referee EVER. i also think the ref in McClellan-Benn was pretty bad as well.

    edit- lol just realized it was posted by the thread starter.

    Cortez used to be good but had declined as a ref well before people started complaining about Mayweather-Hatton.

    Ever see Hopkins-Allen 3, three and a half years before Mayweather-Hatton?

    Ever see him almost let Ike Quartey kill poor Carlos Bojorquez? He and Bojorquez's corner let it go on for rounds too long. Then a minute left in the fight, Cortez decides to stop the massacre.
