Bayless will be the third man in the ring at the richest fight in boxing history.

The third man in the ring on Saturday night has been in more big fights than Floyd Mayweather Jr. and Manny Pacquiao put together. The Nevada Athletic Commission went with proven veterans when it assigned these four men to the highest-profile show in several years in boxing's capital city. Kenny Bayless is the most respected referee in boxing, with two decades of title fight experience and a reputation for fairness. Some fans and commentators have suggested Bayless' style could favor Mayweather.
