I heard that for the Canelo vs Bud card, Thomas Taylor is the ref and the judges will be Tim Cheatham, Steve Weisfeld and Max Deluca

I don't recall Thomas Taylor being in many controversies so I think I'm okay with the referee selection. As for the judges, they are usual suspects in Las Vegas fights 🤣 in fact they were all involved with the Pacquiao v Barrios fight and most people hated the cards. Your bet for a draw is looking good now 🤣

Tim Cheatham had Figueroa beating Joet 8-4, scored Benavidez v Morrell too wide. Yeah, I'm not feeling too good about the judges, ngl.

It's a Canelo fight in Las Vegas, what do you expect?

I know man, but still. I just hope they score accurately, they can't afford to fuck up one of Netflix's first true boxing events with all the viewers they're gonna get.
