Mayweather KO’s Ortiz in controversial ending

By Jason Kim: Photo credit: Naoki Fakuda – Floyd Mayweather Jr. (42-0, 26 KO’s) should consider himself very lucky tonight that he wasn’t disqualified for tagging WBC welterweight champion Victor Ortiz (29-3-2, 22 KO’s) with what appeared to be a cheap shot left hook-right hand combination a fraction of a second after Ortiz apologized to Mayweather for head butting him in the 4th round.

I don’t know how this fight doesn’t get over-turned because Mayweather should have been disqualified in my view.

This was like Mayweather cheap shotting Ortiz in return, but not getting penalized like Ortiz did. I know Mayweather is popular and is considered boxing’s cash cow but you got to be fair about it. Mayweather should have either been disqualifed or had points taken away. Cortez really blew it by missing the action and not making the call. I think it was another bad night for Cortez I hate to say.

Referee Joe Cortez appeared not to even be watching the action at the time that Mayweather tagged Ortiz, knocking him to the canvas. Cortez had just taken a point away from Ortiz for getting a little over eager while opening up on Mayweather with a flurry of power shots while he was backed up against the ropes.

Ortiz clearly was in the wrong for the head butt, and deserved to have the point taken away. Ortiz seemed to lose his senses completely while blasting away at Mayweather. He didn’t need to head butt, because he was doing reasonably well, although he was getting hit with a lot of pot shots in the 3rd and 4th round. Cortez honestly should have been all over Ortiz in the 1st round when he first started showing signs of using his head while in close. Had Cortez stepped in earlier and given Ortiz a stern warning, he may have sparred himself the point deduction. But that’s not excuse for what Mayweather did when Ortiz was apologizing to him. He didn’t deserve to be tagged in the head with a two punch combination while his arms still outstretched in apology mode.

The first round was pretty close with both guys trading and Ortiz stalking Mayweather around the ring.

In the 2nd round, Mayweather began landing more of his pot shots, but Ortiz seemed to be the stronger fighter with his hard combinations and his constant pressure. Mayweather looked uncomfortable.

Things changed in the 3rd, as Mayweather was now loosened up and began to tee off on Ortiz with straight right hands down the pipe, tagging Ortiz as he was coming forward again and again. It was total domination for Mayweather in that round. Ortiz had his moments, but Mayweather was pretty much in full control of that round.

In the 4th, Mayweather started off well continuing to pot shot and flurry on Ortiz. As the round was nearing the end, Ortiz opened up with some powerful combinations after trapping Mayweather against the ropes. Ortiz was really laying into Mayweather with some really big shots. However, just when things were going really well, Ortiz went spastic by leaping forward like a little billy goat and tagging Mayweather hard in the head. Referee Joe Cortez immediately stopped the action and took a point away from Ortiz.

You could see that Ortiz felt really bad about what he had done, as he walked over and apologized to Mayweather, giving him a little hug. While Cortez was still not looking at the two fighters, Ortiz walked over to apologize again to Mayweather, sticking his arms out to say he was sorry. But just when Ortiz was starting to back up after saying he was sorry, Mayweather tagged him with a cheap shot left hook followed immediately by a right that knocked Ortiz down flat on his back. Referee Cortez, who hadn’t been following the action, turned around and quickly stopped the fight giving Mayweather a knockout victory. It was sickening. Cortez turns his head, misses Mayweather’s cheap shot and stops the fight after Ortiz is knocked down.

    donnieb…if you’re proud of the way floyd won, shame on you. Goes to show what kind of character you have.

    Don’t worry…we’ll see what excuses you’re gonna have once pac kills floyd in the ring.

    Remember, you were the one asking about me on this thread. And YOU KNOW I’m in your head, that’s why.

    Keep s u c k i n on that thumb of yours.

    Congrats to Team Mayweather the greatest Con Artist in Boxing wow I see why they call him Money .

    yes.. he is not the face of boxing. only the face of money . . manny should NOT Risk his fame to this con artist . .

  • avid Boxing Fan says:

    If all those people who say’s that , Maywheather do the right thing in the field of sport called Boxing and consider it to be the righteous act, then teach their son to do the same then I will highly appreciate their conviction…

  • TopCat says:

    awful, awful article. mayweather broke no rules, ortiz did. awful article

  • eustaquio says:

    is this what floyd is calling a level playing field??? if he did not want the 2nd apology of ortiz, he must have pushed him back and punched him right in the temple.. but what did he do, he accepted the hug of ortiz and then boom… 1 and two combination…

    what a level playing field… ;-)

  • Tb says:

    I DEFINITELY agree with the champion’s behaviour! i told Ortiz ‘d be noked aout!i told it! fine Floyd!

  • joseph says:

    @tork
    it may sound like a conspiracy theory but it may be a fact. i mean all three people on the ring made unlikely, uncharacterisic moves in a sequence! first victor caught and pounded floyd on the ropes then BOOM! there goes the obvious intentional jumping headbutt! then the ref automatically took away one point from victor. victor apologizes not only a part of the act but also he may have hit floyd too much. then the ref look at the timekeeper, then ortiz apologizes again, (never did i see a fighter apologized three times for headbutting his opponent) ortiz seems to embrace floyd, floyd responded by touching his gloves, cortez again looks at the time keeper, then BOOM! BOOM! ortiz fell down, ortiz looks like his still conscious, could have gotten up but decided not to. what he absorbed w/ berto were far more stronger shots! then victor smiles. “the end” hmmm. probably the reason why berto and ortiz fought very hard was because for a high paying acting career w/ the director/producer watching at their fight live! hahahahahahahahahah!

  • Hear's The Thing says:

    When it’s all said and done, Floyd will end up in a grave with all his money gone and his legacy tarnished.

    Mark my words. Pacquiao is gonna knock this n**ga out.

  • P99 says:

    when its all said and done floyd will retire undefeated.period. Pacquiao will get dropped.if amir khan wants it,hell get plowed also.ive seen him figjht too..no real defense or scary offense.but pac man is loved because hes a humble fighter.i like pac man as a person more.hes a role model for the sport.but floyd is the villain..still a great fighterr. Who fights 42 fights these days n never been knock down.def not pac man..i learn one thing,people will always find excuses to bring someone down.. Bunch of larry merchants.. End of story..still laughing at ortiz.dude didnt even try to get up..what do u call that??? Quitter in my book..oh i forgot the world wanted to see floyd lose.so well just say the fight was fixed and make cheap shot accusations..whats really sad r people whosr on here and know nothing about the sport..pacquiao should just retire now cuz maywrather will expose him ..no chance for pac man.just think of the video game miss pac man.what when u have no effects on ghosts? U run or get eaten!!! GAME OVER!!! Sorry pacquiao fans.thnkx for playing

  • P99 says:

    I laugh at the people who really think pacquiao will beat floyd..what a joke.pacquiao pillow punches will have floyd smiling all night..and will the world say when he pummels manny???/// in 42 fights ive yet seen floyd bannged up.and u think pac man is gonna hurt him? Oh i see.hatton,dela hoya, mosley, gatti,corrales, marquez all was suppose to hurt him!!! What happened???? Oh wait, i hear SILENCE….(pen drops)

  • P99 says:

    All i can say is what a hype.24/7 did a great job. Im not a floyd fan but you know what i give respect where it is due..ortiz clearly was gettin frustrated cuz hes so callled hard punches wasnt connecting like he wanted..n his inexperience was exposed as he showed no defense what soever.mayweather was jabbin him at will.a REMATCH will prove nothin.. Mayweather needs to fight pacquiao..but that fight pbf will win..pac man is small n fast but floyds defense is second to none..pacquiao doesnt have the reach or power to really hurt floyd.he struggle twice to beat marquez..who floyd whoooped easily after a lonnnng lay off..so my advice before u make a COMMENT ,do ur reasearch..and btw being undefeated doesnt make u the greatest!

  • Royl says:

    This type of contest is too obvious, a very entertaining scripted boxing fight! good job to both of them…but who knows who got more money!the winner or the giver(looser!)

  • RUSSIAN FAN says:

    yeah mayweather should make a parlor bussiness now if he can’t fight pacman. ha ha ha poor mayweather bhee!!

  • cheapshotter says:

    so “time in” means “fight” or “box”? I’m no boxing expert but as how I understand it when you say “break” to stop, you should say “fight” to resume..

    “time in” is just a signal to the time keeper and not to the boxers.. right?

    Cortez was not even looking at the fighters when he said “time in”..

  • JP says:

    Since when do you get DQ’d for throwing punches when the clock is running in a boxing match? I thought that was the point of boxing?

  • Don't Test Me, Bro says:

    Since Filipinos like to talk about boxing commissions all the time:

    Since Filipinos keep crying about Floyd not being the boxing commission…

    “Joe pointed to the timekeeper and said ‘Time in’..“At that point, the fight is back on and they’re free to punch each other. Joe had them separated, but Victor went to hug him four separate times. But the referee said ‘Time in’ and Floyd Mayweather threw a perfectly legal punch. I have no idea why Victor kept trying to hug him or embrace him. I guess he was feeling guilty because of the head butt, but hey, you’re in a fight. Fight and then feel guilty later.”

    -NSAC Executive Director Keith Kizer

    Here’s the thing is just some short worthless Filipino male who has chronic limp d1ck syndrome.

  • Anonymous says:

    Listen to Hear’s The Thing crying about being attacked racially yet he uses colorful terms like “The American Way” in an undermining fashion. Wow buddy, if I didn’t know any better (as you would probably indicate) I’d say you just sh i t on entire “nation” of people before anyone had even insulted your people. If you’re going to pretend to be the victim, at least check your own comments first.

  • ZBNupe says:

    He head butted ALL damn night and was warned TWICE!!! Supposely the head butt would have landed in the nose, all would have been done was take a point but leave Mayweather there to deal with a broke nose caused by a cheap shot. Ortiz has a long way to go before being called an elite fighter and I doubt if he ever will…

  • Anonymous says:

    Ortiz didn’t quit. He got tagged and was out.

  • Hear's The Thing says:

    Money TG…ok, if you were at the fight last night, something happened at the southeast corner of the arena immediately after the fight. What was it?

  • Hear's The Thing says:

    FACT: N i * * a s are dumber than Filipinos in ALL walks of life.

    FACT: I’m still inside donnieb’s head. Why you askin’ for me fool?

    FACT: Blacks are the most poverty stricken race in the United States.

    FACT: Floyd weighed well over 155 against Delahoya and Marquez. So YOU are the idiot Don’t Test Me, not Filipinos.

    FACT: Don’t Test Me isn’t man enough to give me his phone number on this website so I could personally whoop his black a z z.

    FACT: I beat the c r a p out of a black man in the ring inside my gym last week.

    FACT: All you idiot Floyd rats on this site cannot stand me because you all know Pacquiao gonna whoop that n i * * a’s azz come 2012.

    FACT: Once Pac kills Floyd, I will insult you Floydrats to no end and put you n i * * a z to shame.

    It was not a break u idiots Joe Cortez clearly said lets go! Mayweather just made his ego known….mayweather was whooping his azz to begin with!

  • BLUE DOG says:

    @ robotronic

    man up dude, u r so sensible……

  • robotronic says:

    wow, not only have you floydiots not even seen the fight yet, most of you cannot even make sense, “it was Ortiz stupidity fault” very sensible well constructed thought you floyd fans have……………………………..RETARDS

  • junn2 says:

    ssshh…MAYWEATHER VS PACQUIAO!

  • BLUE DOG says:

    U cant blame Floyd or Cortez it was Ortiz stupidity fault

  • robotronic says:

    Ortiz was penalized a point for headbutting you idiots, watch the fight before to start commenting. The penalty is what allowed floyd to cheap shot him, have any of you watched boxing before, headbutts happen………………..What doesn’t happen is a guy is allowed to hit somebody on the break and then call it a knock out, that normally will never happen, and when it does the guy gets disqualified, not awarded the match.

  • bert perez says:

    it’s obvious its a fixed fight. what ref cortez did after giving sign to re-start time by looking away and talking to ringside counter was the give away.

    before, I don’t want to believe the shane-floyd fight was fixed. it’s impossible to see the likes of shane who’s always conditioned and fit even w/o a fight to suddenly lose air by the 3rd or 4th round?

  • Jordan says:

    i hate mayweather as much as the next man but it was totally legal you need to protect yourself at all times an the only annoying part is that ortiz had a good chance of taking the champ throughout the fight and possibly winning! They are both as bad as eachother ortiz should’nt have headbutted mayweather then none of this would have happened!

  • robotronic says:

    whats your point retard

  • Sean says:

    Rule #1 – SQUARE UP TO YOUR OPPONENT — Face your opponent with both shoulders, so that you can fight with both hands.

    Rule #2 – KEEP YOUR GLOVES UP — Protect yourself at all times.

    Rule #3 – KEEP YOU FEET MOVING — Stay on your toes. You can’t get hit if the punch can’t find you.

    Rule #4 – SET UP YOUR POWER PUNCH WITH THE JAB — Use the jab as a range finder.

    Rule #5 – GET IN THERE AND MIX IT UP — Throw a lot of punches, using a variety of punches.

  • MAYWEATHER says:

    i hear every one talking about how ortiz should protect himself at all times what happen to obey my commands at all times you floycheats are very stupid to even think highly of a clown like floyd bring that foo to ufc he will get ko first rd PERIOD !!

  • robotronic says:

    the reality is mayweather noticed that he was not going to hurt Ortiz,and decided to cheap shot him. you retards trying to use the headbutt as a defense for floyd, are what I called you retards…………Ortiz was penalized a point without even being warned for headbutting, that was total garbage, and to make the fight a total trash dump mayweather is allowed to hit a guy on the break, and then call it a knock out, sounds like a lame wwf match, Cortez is gone and floyd is wrong, for the sport of boxing, retire you little runt.

  • robotronic says:

    this was not a boxing match, it was a wwf wrestling match, joe cortez will be banned from boxing for this, and floyd will be disqualified and the belt will go back to Ortiz, if this does not happen boxing is going to suffer real fans who know the sport think this match is a travesty for boxing. cortez never said touch em and box, mayweather is a coward and a b1tch,Ortiz was closing the gap and starting to land on floyd.

  • The Voice of Boxing says:

    MAYWEATHER VS MERCHANT!

  • mick dias says:

    only 2 of ortiz punches in dat final combo landed b4 de butt,ortiz butted floyd cos he cudn land

  • junn2 says:

    MAYWEATHER VS PACQUIAO!

  • The Voice of Boxing says:

    Forget Ortiz, he had his chance and blew it.

    Floyd Mayweather needs to get back into the ring with Larry Merchant, apologize for his verbal abuse, stick out his arms to once again apologize and then Larry should let loose with his best left-hook, right hand combination catching Floyd off guard.

    Let’s see this damn so-called P4P king get up from the canvas after that.

    Come on Larry, Floyd’s “0″ must go.

  • Roberto C says:

    People they are talking cheap talk can somebody post round by round and tell us if Ortiz won a single round?

  • the boxer says:

    Mayweather did simiar dirty tactics to Gatti (and he knocked him down), against Mosley, and now Ortiz. He used his elbow on Hatton through out their fight and weighed 2 lbs over the limit against his little rival Marquez.

  • Anonymous says:

    ortiz didnt give up he just got frustrated and did something stupid (headbutt). then got careless and forgot the first rule in boxing and got caught. PERIOD

  • Box1ngTalent says:

    As a fellow boxer I say that he had every right to hit Ortiz the ref had already broken them up and let them come together to fight after deducting a point from Ortiz, and if that isnt enough there was no question that he headbutted Money May intentionally, In closing PROTECT YOURSELF AT ALL TIMES!!!!!!!!

  • junn2 says:

    ***There is one thing that we can all agree, as a boxing fan, we are all prostrated, all we want is MAY vs PAC. let us use OUR POWER to make it happen, it is OUR MONEY that make fights. from now on, on ALL sports web, we only write on comment- “MAYWEATHER vs PACQUIAO” *if you don’t, then you are one reason why it won’t happen!

  • zdrx says:

    is the second act of apology necessary?…..NOOOO!
    did floyd commit foul for that KO?…..NOOOO!

    BUT FLOYD TOOK ADVANTAGE OF ORTIZ’S INEXPERIENCE. THAT’S THE REASON FLOYD PICKED GREENHORN ORTIZ…TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF HIS IGNORANCE.

    but what about another angle being floated around? THAT THIS FIGHT IS FIXED…THAT ORTIZ CHOSE TO STAY DOWN (and count his money) THAN CONTINUE WITH THE CHARADE?

  • flavourite says:

    This is the type of thing we are likely to see with 3 cheaters in the ring.

  • tauj says:

    Looked almost staged.

  • floydrats says:

    @dont test me bro…he’s coming,just u wait,he’ll straighten you out.

  • jrldev says:

    The referee is not a couch or corner-man. He follows the rules of boxing and their behvior inside the ring. One he calls for the boxers to “fight-on” fter any interruption in a fight – like stoping to deduct a point – It is up to the boxer to continue- If Ortiz was prepare to fight on he would have acted accordingly but hde apparently was ready to quit – memories of his first loss suddenly appear? – I don’t like PBF persona nor his corner relatives but this is one occasion that I have to admit that he did what any other boxer is suposed to do after the referee gives the command to fight-on. Ihave attended fights and watched them on TV since my first live fight in 1948 – over 60 years – and Mayweather action was not different than any other fighter I have sewen after a referee calls to fight. Ortiz behavior was “strange” to say the least. Don’t blame the referee.

  • Iz What is Iz says:

    What’s the one phrase synonymous with Boxing?

    “Protect yourself at all time’s”

    What I’m wondering is when Floyd threw the left hook (I agree it was a cheap shot) and connected, then why didn’t victor get his hands up or immediately jump on the defensive after that initial shot? That’s Victor’s Mistake and now Victor’s loss.

  • michael says:

    as a fighter you are told tom defend yourself at all times so if the ref hadn’t called a halt then Floyd was within is rights to do what he did, what the ref should of done after deducting the point would of been to bring both fighters together, get it sorted out then wave the fight back on…

  • Anonymous says:

    i think the fight was a disgrace. the referee wasn’t even paying attention to victor ortiz because his hands were completely on down position. when mayweather punched ortiz out with ortiz hands down the referee should have disqualified mayweather for punching out of order without the fight being in progress. or and ortiz should have been given time to recover and the fight could have proceeded. after all ortiz was starting to get warmed up. very bad about that referee which didn’t know what the hell he was doing . very bad for the payper view audience as well which didn’t get their moneys worth for that fight. discusting bad

  • Sean says:

    Victor was getting frustrated because he couldn’t land anything cleanly and Floyd was going to work on him.Victor was trying to get disqualified on purpose so he didn’t have to be KO’d after talking so much.Cortez said lets go and brought his hands together while stepping back.Ortiz hugged Mayweather and then left his hands down,plus turned his head.What was Floyd supposed to do?

    what brought down Mayweather to the level of a worm is that he pretended to be accepting the apology, smiling and nodding to Ortiz to trick him into thinking Mayweather isn’t planning anything..traitorous.

  • Don't Test Me, Bro says:

    Oh, and where are the stupid Flips claiming Floyd weighs in at 165 on fight night?
    Dude barely managed 150 on HBO’s scales.

All this talk of dirty fighting is nonsense, Ortiz apologised and Mayweather then knocked him out. If Ortiz would of hit Mayweather first after he apologized no one would be saying anything. Get off the mans back and appreciate a good fight. Sometimes you lot got too much to say.

    I was at the fight last night- I didn’t get to see what you guys saw ppv- I check it out this morning on the I-phone and it was all legal what mayweather did. But it did look funny from I was setting.

    ripped off!told you so!eventhough i watched it at live stream i felt cheated!what more if i pay for it?
    it is a common knowledge that a step back is gentlemen gesture before engaging!ortiz did so…floyd did not!

  • Duran's the man says:

    Very rarely do we see a council overturn a fight result but this one has it written all over. The point deduction was spot on but how it was managed was not. Neutral corner for the offended, stop the clock, take all the time necessary to sit your authority while taking a point away, look at the time keeper to resume time and let the guys go at it.

    Cortez ruined it, Mayweather is guilty of being cheap, Ortiz is guilty of not following the rules, because to protect yourself at all time is a rule not a guidance.

  • Hear's The Thing says:

    Floyd is not only making blacks look bad, he’s making all Americans look bad.

    So I guess Floyd is now known to be a cheap shot artist, kinda like street thugs who get into street fights.

  • robotronic says:

    usually a fighter gets warned for headbutting before he is penalized a point for it.

  • robotronic says:

    Look, defending floyd doesn’t change that he is a coward, and he has sealed his legacy by cheap shotting Ortiz. Any one who saw the fight knows Ortiz was penalized a point for headbutting with even being warned, so stop using that as an excuse why floyd was reduced to cheap shotting, it’s pathetic.

  • zdrx says:

    is the second act of apology necessary? NO!
    did floyd commit foul for that KO? NO!

    BUT FLOYD TOOK ADVANTAGE OF ORTIZ’S INEXPERIENCE. THAT’S THE REASON FLOYD PICKED GREENHORN ORTIZ…TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF HIS IGNORANCE.

    but what about another angle being floated around? THAT THIS FIGHT IS FIXED…THAT ORTIZ CHOSE TO STAY DOWN (and count his money) THAN CONTINUE THE CHARADE?

Ortiz was dis heartend by in the fight by the strate devastating rights .. He new from early he cudent beat mayweather so he tryed to headbutt him but hey we aint complaining its not a street fight its a boxing so all u fans say floyed aint a sportsmen u wanna look at ortiz floed never did nuffin wrong just took his oppertunity n knocked ortiz out!!!

  • electronic says:

    @robotronic

    Mayweathers punches were getting through and he was starting to put more pop into them at the beginning of round 4. It was only a matter of time before Mayweather punches started to hurt ortiz anyway you foul.

  • Don't Test Me, Bro says:

    So touching gloves, 2 hugs, 1 kiss, and the ref clearly calling time-in wasn’t enough?
    Alrighty then. Now we KNOW the Poopiao fans are YES H0M0.

  • crottyruh says:

    Foreal…. is that really you?

  • Deco says:

    Man he cheated, should been disqualified

  • robotronic says:

    Well, unlike hatton, floyds punches were not hurting ortiz in the fight, until the kid got cheap shotted.

  • Hear's The Thing says:

    Crazy as it may sound, but of Floyd’s last 5 fights, the guy that has given him the most trouble and put him in danger is none other than RICKY HATTON.

    Why? Because if you watch the first four rounds of that fight, Hatton used MOVEMENT and an AMBUSH strategy. He just didn’t have the power and s p e e d and work rate to capitalize.

    The way to beat a fighter like Floyd is to AMBUSH him. You don’t just come straight forward like Ortiz did. Ortiz used one angle the whole night – head first, no angles whatsoever. That’s why he got frustrated. He was an easy target for Floyd.

    But Pac moves like a martial artist, knows how to come at you from varying degrees and angles, and punches like Roberto Duran. This is bad news BIG TIME for Floydie.

  • Maisam says:

    Its better to lose by the rule, than WIN by a cheat!!…floyd is NOT a sportsman!..its wasnt a great sportsmanship!

  • Hear's The Thing says:

    For those of you Floydiots who are poppin’ b o n e r s over that fake knockout over a defenseless victim and are sayin’ that manny’s in trouble… I laugh at you while playing beer pong on your forehead.

    Those who watched the fight and are able to articulate Manny’s quickness, movement, power, COMBINATION PUNCHING, ferocity, and relentless work rate into what Floyd did tonight, would know right off the bat that Manny will easily expose Floyd’s ONE-DIMENSIONAL style of boxing – elbows to defend against punches, right straight, and a left hook every 2 minutes. Floyd looks good because his opponents don’t have any movement.

    Wait til he gets a load of Pacquiao. After all, he’s never fought AN ASIAN WARRIOR before. Ortiz never took martial arts so he knows nothing. But Pac has fought blacks numerous times. Even in the streets of the Philippines. I bet Floyd has never fought a Pinoy his whole life.

  • robotronic says:

    really, they never touched gloves, you never saw the fight obviously, why are you commenting.

  • Ben says:

    Floyd has mastered the art of boxing to perfection. I don’t know why all you haters are moaning this is boxing not netball. The boxers touched gloves fight on, Floyd’s quick hands bedazzled Ortiz, Ortiz gets knocked out.

  • Ben says:

    Great natrual instinct and reactions from Floyd Mayweather, what a knock out. Absolutely top draw.

  • robotronic says:

    mayweather has sealed his legacy as being a coward, and any one who saw that fight noticed mayweathers punches were not hurting victor ortiz, mayweather was the one feeling ortizs punches, ortiz was penalized a point without a warning for headbutting, that was already a suspicious call. Then cortez just lets mayweather land two cheaps shots, and then calls it a knock out, really, it sounds like a lame wwf wrestling match, and I noticed floyd has attracted those type of fans judging by some of the ignorant comments I have read by people defending him.

  • KingPin says:

    In any way you look at it what Floydie did was absolutely wrong, he took the opportunity, that was the lousiest thing to do in boxing, referee did not signal resumption of fight and you punch an opponent hands down, whom do you kid the world spectators, NO WAY its such a big dirt Floyd put in his credential, an absolute garbage, this will have repercussion.

  • 3 stars and a glove says:

    i think the fight was already sold. both of them knew the ending of it… first of all… it’s Mayweather’s style to take a cheap shot like that… 2nd, referee joe cortez always halts the fight everytime Ortiz attacks Mayweather in the corner. Can’t you see that, that headbutt was unintentional though cortez went for a deduction already and didn’t even gave any warning at all… third and not the least, Ortiz, that was dumb acting. he is already tagged not even once in the fight for four rounds. yet a one-two without any full force knock him like that. you can see his eyes, his conscious. AND he was laughing all the way. why won’t he complain, and even the corner didn’t say anything… I’m on Mayweather on this fight. He owns Ortiz from round one. but in round four, when Mayweather was cornered, i saw that he has a chance… damn.. what a way to end the fight. they were toe to toe fighting just like FMJ said. sorry for those who bought PPV and VIP tickets for that one… and i d0n’t think FMJ will fight Manny for that… Fight was sold…

And the fact Cortez never even seen the knockdown makes it even worse, sorry but this was a bit of a joke.

HE WAS NEVER IN THE FIGHT, AND YOU COULD SEE HE WAS ABOUT TO GET STOPPED.

  • Bern says:

    Floyd and the controversy machine have ripped the fans off; I feel we have been cheated out of our money once again. Yes the punch was legal technically, but if fights are to be won by a controversial technically rather than skill and athleticism then we will kill the honesty of true combat and allow the full control of corruption to referee our sport. If we let this happen, will never see a true fight again!

    Regardless of what happened tonight, what was going on with Ortiz’s performance?? It was like so disjointed, it was like he was paralyzed after the 1st round when he realised he couldn’t hit Money or even throw a shot without taking twice as much back.

    I’m sorry, the end typified how the fight was going. A rookie mistake from a kid who had realised he’d bitten off more that he can chew and was looking for a way out that would keep his career in tact. Honestly guys, i think Ortiz may have known what he was doing, its not like the 1st shot Money knocked him out, it was the second. Why didn’t Ortiz protect himself after the 1st.

    In my eyes, both guys cheated us, its just that one of them got away with it….

    The truth is even if Mayweather had not KO’d Ortiz in the fashion he did, he WAS going to KO him. It’s astonishing how people are’nt talking about the illegal headbutt(s), rahter than the legal punch(s) that stopped Ortiz. I’ve watched the fight 4 times already and Ortiz made several attempts from RND 2 onwards, to headbutt Mayweather (4 to be exact), so it was not just the 4th RND. Ortiz did the one thing you cannot do in a fight with a supreme fighter like Mayweather, and that’s lose your cool. Not only was the KO legit, it was just. My only regret is I bet on the 11th RND KO by Mayweather, oh well my guy won either way!

  • Hear's The Thing says:

    Please boxing fans, get a grip.

    Look…I’m a huge Pac fan and although I highly respect Floyd’s skill as a boxer, I don’t have any respect for him as a person.

    But please fans…let’s get real. Stop crying that Ortiz should be awarded this fight. Floyd’s punch was legal and it is Ortiz to BLAME. Ortiz blindsided himself completely and was not mentally prepared for the challenge at hand. Simply put, he MALFUNCTIONED BIG TIME.

    So fans, do yourself a favor, and accept Victor’s defeat. Give Floyd the limelight right now. And when pac finishes him, that’s when you can rejoice.

    Floyd was right. He said he was gonna “son him [Ortiz]” and he did just that. Victor is a man in life, but he’s still a child in the ring. He messed up and wilted under the pressure of a real prizefight. Period.

  • sPyMe says:

    That was the best fight I have ever seen!……… Floyd is the best pound for pound fighter in WWF!………Where was Vince McMahon when it all happened!……. Thank you Floyd for you have certainly elevated the sport to another level!……What a joke!…….

  • Chicago Ave. says:

    OK listen, and listen good. First Victor head butt the S@it out of Mayweather!!(actually lifted up off the ground to do so) I mean he REALLY couldve seriously hurt Floyd wit that head butt. So after that, he starts to bullish apoloze for it, in the meantime kissed him as well. Now, if you look at the reply Cortez says lets go, and outs his hands in the position saying lets fight. People saying Cortez wasnt looking. Well, you right, he wasnt looking, he was telling the timekeeper time in, like most are done. Anyways, I like May, but Im always a boxing fan first and I call it the right way no matter what. And after that REAL cheap shot from Vic, I have no sympathay for him getting knocked out the way he did. I mean karma is a byach, and God doesnt like ugly.

    Oh, back to my kissing point. So AFTER he INTENTIONALLY head the S^!T out of him, then you gone kiss him like hes ya lil byach?!! Seriously? Any REAL open minded people feeling me tonight?

  • LondonGuy says:

    The ref restarts the fight, he says “lets go” and waves them on. Then he turns his head to the right to remind the bell man to ring the bell, meanwhile Ortiz and Floyd both step forward to start the fight. From this moment you are supposed to put you guard up and if you have to touch gloves, do it from a distance. This is no time for hugging. What was Ortiz doing? did the occasion get to him?

    i know ortiz going to lose i never trust cortez as ref he needs a rematch YOU NEED A REF TO COUNT ON AND MAYWEATHER WAS HOLDING TO MUSH ON THE MATCH I HOPE PACMAC WILL KNOCK YOU OUT. AND MAYWEATHER DON,T DESERVE THAT BELT HE SHOULD GET IT BACK TO ORTIZ I CAN,T BELIEVE WHAT GOING ON BOXING A CHEAT SHOT.I DON,T UNDERSTAND WHY PEOPLE LIKE MAYWEATHER I NEVER WILL NEVER KNOW I HOPE HE FIGHT PACMAN I HOPE THEY FIND BETTER REF FOR THE FIGHT THAT IS HONEST ONE THING IS PEOPLE WASTED MONEY FOR ORTIZ VS MAYWEATHER FIGHT.THE BETTER FIGHT WAS MORALES VS CANO

  • stuey says:

    end of the day the first rule of boxing protect yourself at all times the ref called a break after the headbutt they stepped back ortiz should have kept his guard up especially against someone like money mayweather, not the end to the fight i would of liked but this is what happens when your the marquee name nowadays

    Oh well, Mayweather was giving Ortiz a boxing lesson as it was.

    which is the greater offence? 1. the illegal & intentional commission of a foul against your opponent, or; 2. the legal knockout of your opponent immediately after receiving a foul? sometimes rather than forming opinions based on observed truths, we seek truths that support our opinions. i suppose life would be boring without idiots, though.

  • GEE says:

    Floyd has just defined his legacy….it was awesome to see him fall EVEN further in the eyes of true boxing fans.

    A CHEAP SHOT from a CHEAP HUMAN BEING…then verbally attacking Larry Merchant. Priceless to see Larry Merchant lugh in his ace & tell him he’d wipe the floor with him.

    Mayweather showd he’s a MEGLOMANIAC…disagree with him & he’ll shout over you; like a m o n k e y.

    What a disgrace Floyd Mayweather is.

  • robotronic says:

    If the wbc has any honor they will rectify this wrong and award the fight to victor ortiz, if this does not happen, this fight is a sad night for the sport of boxing.

  • Hear's The Thing says:

    Boy I can’t wait til Pacquiao teaches Floyd a lesson on what it takes to be a TRUE PROFESSIONAL PRIZEFIGHTER.

    The Man Above sent Pacquiao to Earth for a reason. And that’s to TEACH AMERICAN ATHLETES WHAT IT TAKES TO BE A TRUE AMERICAN PROFESSIONAL ATHLETE. Floyd is simply the pawn that will be used to set the example because he typifies so many of the arrogant, c l a s s l e s s, think they own the world American athletes of today (ie LEBRON JAMES, Floyd, etc).

    Just be patient boxing fans. Everything is about timing. Let Floyd have his day of glory right now. He won back his belt. Good for him. But the time will come when Floyd s u c c u m b s to Manny in front of the entire planet. It will be one sight to see and a ton of Americans are gonna wake up.

  • robotronic says:

    like i said replay doesn’t lie, some of you who are commenting clearly saw the espn highlights and not the actual fight, the entire fight has been recorded from multiple angles you retards………….and there was nothing legal about what floyd did, and joe cortez will be banned from boxing for this.

    You see fellas…the thing that Mayweather was good at doing against Mosley and Ortiz was getting in their heads during the fight, taunting them by smiling, and causing Mosley and Victor to get frustrated thus causing them to malfunction.

    Hear’s the Thing though…

    It ain’t gonna work against Pacquiao. Pacquiao is as SOLID as they get MENTALLY. Just like Michael Jordan. In fact, it’s Pacquiao who is the one in Floyd’s head right now. All Pac is doing is saying that he’s praying for Floyd lol.

    It was black and white CHEAP SHOT!
    so what if there was a head but he was penalized for it Head buts happen all the time! Mayweather totally meant the two cheap shots he put his arms out like he forgave the unaxperienced young champ then while Ortiz had his gaurd down Bam! The Ref Cortez is to blame for when you have a slick cheater who loves to throw low blows and elbows you should never turn your back away from them and start talking to who knows who about the point deduction in the mean time Mayweather is getting in his cheap shots! The Ref should be Fired and this fight should be ruled a DQ!

    After the headbutt Ortiz threw 2 punches…. Cause and effect my friends. Ortiz knew that the result of the fight was due to his inability to control himself. Props to Maweather for ending the fight before somthing else to happened…

  • Pain Language says:

    Someone tell me how Ortiz was winning that fight? That’s what I thought. Ortiz was frustrated that’s why he started fouling. Floyd had him hand cuffed. He couldn’t throw one single punch. Floyd just put Ortiz out his misery.

  • Hear's The Thing says:

    After Ortiz got knocked out and recovered from his senses, he should’ve done it “The American Way LOL” and took off his gloves and s u c k e r punched Floyd from behind b a r e k n u c k l e d on the way out of the ring.

    After all, both fighters are Americans. LOL

    What a shame, that the “American bracket” of the Final Four ends up being a disgrace to the sport.

    But I’m sure the “World Bracket” of the Final Four – Pac vs. Marquez – will give fans their money’s worth as they always do when it comes to Filipino or Mexican fights.

  • iceman says:

    people appear to be forgetting that ortiz did purposely foul floyd out of pure frustration. he was getting schooled and simply couldnt touch mayweather. it was 4 rounds to zip just before the ko. yeah the ko was cheap, but so was the headbutt.

    what would have happened if ortiz’s foul opened a cut above floyd’s eye? or worse koed floyd? people cant have double standards here.

    but as i said, ortiz was getting school and if he carried on probably would have got stopped late or lost by wide wide points decision. very impressed with floyd.

    Floydie did not have to resort to it as Larry Merchant says,, Floydie was in control of the fight anyway.

    VILLAIN, BAD GUY, DARTH VADER, and you can now add FLOYD MAYWEATHER JR in the list

  • DeadScared says:

    Floyd won that one squarely alright. Floyd proved once again that he is a true champ and showed everybody what stuff true champs are made of. Victor on the other hand only proved himself a bum and of what stuff bums are made of. Well, he’s a millionaire now no doubt. Looking back I say Ortiz beat Berto not because he was the better man but because Berto was simply the lesser fighter. Congratulations Floyd. By this time maybe you’ll know you can beat Pacquiao. All you need to do is to try.

  • Juan dela Cruz says:

    My advice to manny pacquiao if ever a fight with mayweather does happen. Don’t ever touch gloves with floyd, not at any point in the match coz you might suffer what Ortiz did. No more mr. nice guy manny. A fight with moneymay is WAR!!!

  • Hear's The Thing says:

    Roberto C says “I told you guyz Floyd is the best boxer in the world .”

    LOL…if you think this fight was affirmation that Floyd is the best boxer in the world, shame on you.

    All Floyd did was knockout a guy who was looking the other way without his guard up. In the streets, that’s called a cheap shot. In the ring, it’s called unsportsmanship no matter how legal it was. It’s like if I s u c k e r punched you and knocked you out while your back was turned to me and then all of a sudden told the whole world that I beat you up convincingly. LOL

    Pac would wipe the floor with Floyd. And Floyd don’t want none of it.

    Pac has something that Ortiz doesn’t:

    1. Real hand s p e e d
    2. Movement (lateral and in and out)
    3. Ring Smarts and Technique
    4. Ring Savvy
    5. An intimidating presence
    6. Fists of Fury
    7. And real personal hatred for Floyd that goes back years.

  • robotronic says:

    Ortiz, has won the respect of alot of fans after this fight, mayweather needs to go back to smoking crack with his pops. A true champion doesn’t need to illegally strike an opponent, mayweathers cheap shots only confirms that floyd is garbage a total trash fighter, who needs to leave the sport of boxing.

  • robotronic says:

    I bet cortez will never call a fight again, and mayweather should retire, this fight should be investigated, I dont understand how joe cortez called that a knockdown when he hadn’t even set the match in play, he was still in the process of penalizing ortiz for the headbutt, no warning either just decided to take a point, this fight was total garbage, boxing as sport does not need this type of trash happening.

  • Hear's The Thing says:

    A REAL CHAMPION will not feel the need to hug his opponent over and over again after he commits a foul. A REAL CHAMPION will move on from the incident and be ready to fight once the apology has been said. Ortiz RENTED the WBC Belt, that was it.

    I lost a ton of respect for Ortiz tonight. Pac would wipe the floor with him and for those who ever thought that Pac would have a hard time with Ortiz, shame on you. Pac would KO Ortiz in 4 rounds, THE REAL WAY.

  • ginn says:

    if cortez told them to fight he wasn’t watching the fight ortiz did not hear it and mayweather did i guess hunged like then punched the hell out of ortiz with cortex not even knowing what was going on something don’t seem right for the clock didn’t start boxing is a joke then cause it ended like a wrestling match.cortez lost control of fight and if he started round he didn’t make it clear and was still talking and paying attention to the ring side officials.the first punch was very unsportsman like and ortiz looked at cortez who ignored it and mayweather seen that cortez wasn’t looking so put in a harder one . i’m trying to figure what fight other people were watching for but that’s bull mayweather should have had a point taken away and then see if ortiz could continue if not disqaulification mayweather and loss.that’s what was wrong with this fight and it was a black eye to boxing and something needsto be done.

  • R.C. says:

    I just looked at the replay. Cortez told them let’s go. It’s really Ortiz’s fault. He shouldn’t have kept trying to hug. You could see floyd was visibly angry. Cortez should have kept them in the corners if he wasn’t going to pay attention. There is no reason for the ref to look away if he brought them back together.

  • Roberto C says:

    I told you guyz Floyd is the best boxer in the world .

  • Anonymous says:

    No fan of Boxing can say if it was reversed it would be fair. It was a low cheap trick, as was the headbutt. But Ortiz was penalised for that.
    Floyd and his fans can take no glory in that way of winning, and if they do they are simple minded and not in the slightest knowledgeable about boxing.

  • Hear's The Thing says:

    Jim Lampley put it best, “If you say you’re the best, that’s no way to prove it.”

    I would have liked to see Floyd withstand Ortiz’s barrage and see if he could continue to take Ortiz’ power.

    But Victor proved to me today why he is not even close to being an elite fighter. That’s why Pac toys with him in sparring.

    Victor has NO head movement, NO lateral movement, and he failed to throw combinations that were effective. People hyped up this fight sayin’ Victor has s p e e d but I knew all along his s p e e d was overrated. Hand s p e e d is what Pac has. That’s what real s p e e d is.

    Also noticed one key thing as to why Floyd had a rather easy time landing his straight right: Vic kept walking into it because he failed to keep his right foot OUTSIDE of Floyd’s left foot. A southpaw gains advantage by continually moving laterally to his opponent’s left side so as to avoid the right hand. Vic FAILED to do this and why he got tagged over and over again.

  • TriedMethod says:

    Really does anyone else feel Ortiz SOLD OUT. Come on in a heated fight like this why would you be so apologetic about a headbutt. And more so Nonito Donaire said it best “when you get hit you cover up” and fight back. What Ortiz did looked more like he forgot to fall the first time

  • Mark says:

    Floyd proved yet again why he is the best fighter on the planet.

  • Hear's The Thing says:

    To all boxing fans…

    Everyone here knows I favor Pac over Floyd. But I’m a true fan of boxing. And I’m gonna say it like this:

    Floyd’s KO punch, as cheap as it looked, was LEGAL. Nothing wrong with it because I blame Ortiz for not putting his guard up. What I have a problem with is that Floyd’s act was C l a s s l e s s and failed to display good sportmanship. Completely UNPROFESSIONAL in my book. Pac or Mosley or Leonard or Trinidad or Chavez or Delahoya would have NEVER done that.

    Floyd took the EASY way out instead of testing himself and fighting a FIGHTER’S FIGHT.

    His new nickname is EASY MONEY.

    But overall, I blame this loss on Ortiz. You can tell he was UNPREPARED MENTALLY. You could easily tell in the ring entrance. Even Danny Garcia was nervous. He kept whispering things in Ortiz’ ear during the ring entrance and as soon as they were inside the ring before the fight started. Total lack of experience in big fights overwhelmed the entire Team Ortiz.

    Now let’s see if Floyd retires or man’s up to fight Pacquiao in May.

  • robotronic says:

    Joe Cortez should be banned for life, what he did was inexcusable. Floyd should be stripped of the belt and the match should be awarded to Victor Ortiz. If you hit during the break it’s an automatic disqualification, how cortez considered that a knockdown is beyond my comprehension. If this is not remedied boxing is going to lose alot of fans, I hope this mess is cleaned up. Whar was clear in the fight is floyd would not have lasted 12 rounds being pounded by victor ortiz, that was clear, ortizs punches were hurting little floyd.

  • Othor says:

    after the first punch, ortiz didn’t cover his self… he followed the script well… if that’s real… one free punch could kill ortiz even if mayweather is a soft puncher.

  • thats funny says:

    I TOLD YOU HE WOULD WIN
    Mayweather won legally, the ref clearly called them to fight again and there was no need for Ortiz so apologize a THIRD time.

    Being a boxer myself, as soon as the ref say fight/box, that’s exactly what you should do, not go in and apologize for a THIRD time.

    Although it’s a dirty tactic, it is legal so Floyd won. Simple as that.

    Mayweather is the better fighter.. But it was a cheapshot, thats no way to be a champ..

    Yes boxing is not a nice guy game, but still it is a sport.. Even war has moral rules to follow..

    Ortiz accepted the fact that he intentionally headbutt Floyd, but Floyd is defending the way he acted..

    cheapshot dirty fighter..

  • .. says:

    Mayweather won legally, the ref clearly called them to fight again and there was no need for Ortiz so apologize a THIRD time.

    Being a boxer myself, as soon as the ref say fight/box, that’s exactly what you should do, not go in and apologize for a THIRD time.

    Although it’s a dirty tactic, it is legal so Floyd won. Simple as that.

  • Mr. North Star says:

    Pinche dirty mayate!

  • Mr. North Star says:

    Floyd is a cheater! Cheap shot. F.u..k Floyd!

  • vicente says:

    SCRIPTED ALL the way.. FLOYD only fight for those fighter that HE can PLAY and PAY..

  • Urg says:

    For those who claim Ortiz won, please do everyone a solid and pull your head out of you know where. Floyd landed about 80 punches and Victor about 20. I saw the fight at a movie theater and everyone was cheering Mayweather as he landed with precision. EVERYONE.

  • danman says:

    first off ortiz should be grateful floyd gave him the fight.his biggest payday.secondly ortiz does not belong in thje ring with flyd,from what i could see,there skills set s are not in the same leauge.floyd would have destroyed him either way.yeh ortiz drove him into the ropes a couple of times ,never landing a meaningful pumch and floyd grinning as usual.im sorry it enede the way it did,what would have ali done in that situation,the same.all the great ones have a killer instinct and winning is the first thing on there mind.they are not looking to be nice guys or gentleman in the ring.they are there to win by any means within the rules of boxing.the bref called time in,the bell went off in floyds head to punch.good night ortiz.listen ,these guys come from a place where it is shoot first ask later,thats how they are wired,so,what do you expect.he is a product of the streets.survival first.if they do it again,same outcome.ortiz is not in floyds loeauge.

  • mexicali says:

    hugging and kisses is not applicable if the fight is going on.you can do that after the fight.floyd is a professional boxer yet many of his criticisms says he was a cheater,un sportmanlike an so on.so next time the fighter should be aware of that specially pacquiao when they fought.clearly floyd won the fight.

  • BIGBOSS says:

    mayweather was exposed… he looks beatable… he will never fight pacquiao.

  • roy says:

    floy is the best ,ortyiz never never had a chance no matter wich round floy will ko ortiz i think even worst than it happened,really i see many haters im mexican but floy is simple the best, pacman dont figth floy cause it will be the end of ur carrer

  • awesome says:

    wow!!!, that was a hell of a fight! i thought i was watching wwe, that was a very good script…
    now mayweather here is your 25 million, don’t forget to give ortiz his fair share…

  • spykehead says:

    If you were on Floyd’s place, would you be happy winning like that?

    PAC will not ever do that kind of cheat.

  • splitfire says:

    it was scripted. the headbutt was the Q.

  • Edblz says:

    : listen I don’t like Floyd at all but I do respect his skill. And all you Floyd haters, hate him for his business antics but you can’t hate the man for making a fight street when Ortiz initiated it. How easily you Floyd haters forget the headbutt just so you can trash him on a blog. What he did was in my opinion completely justified and deserved what he got. A headbutt is very dangerous and if you ain’t In the fight game then you won’t know how dangerous. One example is if he headbutts him and let’s say opens a really bad cut over his eye, he then makes that eye more susceptible to being cut in future fights. Everybody forgot the intentional headbutt as soon as mayweather retaliated. Dirty but legal by the way. Then as larry merchant antogonizes mayweather, and spoon feeds ortiz answers for him. Let ortiz answer for himself and you would of heard him say i got frustrated and didnt know what to do, chalk it up to inexperience and a flaming desire to hurt floyd. Kudos for telling Larry merchant what everybody has been saying for years!

  • 42-0 says:

    If you make any mistakes, you have to pay!!! – Floyd Mayweather Jr.

  • fight talk says:

    mayweather won 3 fight tonight…. pac man will never beat him ever !!!

  • SPORTSMANSHIP says:

    do you think boxing is a sport? any mayweather fans who would like to define the word?

  • roy says:

    miren ,soy mexicano mayweather es una verga el wey ,no mamen si no saben de box ni opinen,le hubieran dado otros 4 rounds a mayweather para que vieran lo que le iba a pasar ortiz lo mismo pero mas feo, mweather ganaba por ko en el 9 o 10 asi de sinple muy rapido cordinado y una verga el wey ortiz pobre wey ,ke bueno que termino asi y no en la peor putisa si se hubiera alargado,

  • Don't Test Me, Bro! says:

    All you need to know is Floyd would cut Pac-Broke’s throat. Not even a contest.

  • fmj says:

    c’mon floyd haters keep the comments coming lol

  • Mr. North Star says:

    Pinche mayate mayweather,cheater,cheap shooter.

  • jabs says:

    A true champion doesn’t win fights like that he earns it.Ortiz was a weak sauce he didn’t fight tonight to win.Joe Cortez should get fired for not doing his job attentively.FMJ illegitimate winner.

  • DogBull says:

    headbutt was part of the script

  • dio says:

    the question is what the result if it happen in opposite way,ortiz do it to mayweather???

  • vicente says:

    One of the HIGHLY ANTICIPATED MATCH became a HIGHLY DISAPPOINTING.. FMJ fought only to get out to his debt.. not for HIS FANS.. DISGRACE FOR BOXING..

  • Anonymous says:

    I just saw the the replay of the fight and Cortez did say continue. Ortiz was very dirty in the fight he got what he deserved!!!!

  • Roggre says:

    $2M for a comedy show.. not bad for ortiz

  • cab for Mr_____ says:

    Floyd wins! Legally, yes, fairly? All I will say is this is boxing not a nice guy contest.
    And no it is not a sad day for boxing because come Monday morning most of the country will be talking about it. Instead of hating Mayweather, hate the headbutt from Ortiz and hate the sloppy concentration.

  • Iirc says:

    This fight further solidifies on who was Ortiz? If Ortiz was to make this a fight then cool. Other than that mayweather fought a nobody.

  • MO Khan says:

    PROTECT yourself at all times…means after the REF has restarted or instructed you to FIGHT….ANYTHING else is DISQUALIFICATION

    ORTIZ won..

    I am noy an Ortiz fan, but he fought smartly, by not starting the fight FAST.
    I was worried about him starting too fast.

    In the 3rd ORTIZ was now going to be ORTIZ…..PRESSURE…he was definately going to win this fight.
    With all RESPECT to the Money Man, who has proven himself, this night was going to be a sad night for him.

    WELL in the end, it did end up being a SAD night for him.

    How can you be the best……when you are NOT.

    You SIMPLY….do what you have to do.

    Thats what May did…..ORTIZ let his emations get to him….and did intentionally BUTT the MAYWANTTOBE….Stop the fight then, if the wanted to…that would also be okay.

    BUT 2 wrongs don’t make a right….

    BOXING RULES has to be followed.

    PROTECT yourself at all times, is in place also to protect a fighter from getting hurt, from any so called…misunderstandings in a FIGHT…not when the REF did not restart the fight.
    IF I AM ORTIZ…..sue everyone involved.
    ORTIZ took his PUNCH…you can’t get a CLEARER shot than that…STILL Ortiz was trying to get up..

    MAY will not win another BIG FIGHT.
    MY name is MOKHAN….a boxing fan with great knowledge.
    MARK my PREDICTION. Remember BIG fight.
    May will not fight for another 14 Months…he will then fight Amir Khan.
    The British will pay for the fight.
    He will never fight the PACMAN, in this session of his career…not for any money…..watch what I say.

    He will retire….after the Amir Khan fight.
    Then come back…..18 months later at about 38 to fight the PACMAN.

    Don;t need a rematch with ORTIZ…ORTIZ will fight the PACMAN NEXT.

  • Mamirikan says:

    Is a disgrace seeing “the best” “WIN” a fight this way. It comes to show how desperate he was & his fear & lack of confidence put him n front street… He knew if he kept on fighting he was going to lose… He tasted the power of Ortiz. I feel bad for this great sport, De La Hoya & all the pain this clown caused his own fans.**SOUL LOOSER**

  • DaStormwatcher says:

    42 – 0 Son! WHo next to take the “L” Don’t start a foul and it wont e a foul. Can’t take it, then don’t dish it out. The young boy learned a lesson tonight. Let the KING be. He ate straight rights all night and got frustrated to the point of taking it to the streets. So he got what he deserved. 42 -0. And $40 million in the bank for Floyd. Great night

  • dio says:

    its like mr.bean show ha…ha….ha…….mayweather + referee judge = big joke…thanx to give me laugh for over 15 minute……sad for boxing but good to remember as 1 of funniest fight all time……

  • polo says:

    ortiz tried to knock him out with his head. he was frustrated and looked for a way out with his weak mind. you play dirty keep your hands up. sportsmanship???? come on the dood came off the floor when he tried to knock floyd out with his head. what happened was what he deserved.

  • no name says:

    How in the hell those the ref do a stand up count on ortiz if he didn’t even see Floyd hit him. So if Floyd would’ve drop kicked him u still count? This ref ruined this fight.

  • Mr. North Star says:

    Cheap shot! F.u.k floyd! Pinche cheating mayate

  • gahdlei says:

    Patrick white STFU

  • mp says:

    i felt disappointed for the result of the fight… mayweather played dirty i wanna fight him.. soon if he just sign the contact.

  • weoley castle legend says:

    Who thought it was going end like that. What a joke for the sport.

  • Urg says:

    Ever since 24/7, I realized Ortiz is the typical brat that thinks he can get away with it, justifying himself because he was poor, or the underdog, or whatever. Frustrated by Floyd’s accuracy, he landed the butt. And then Floyd was happy to return the favor. End of story, The kid will learn a hard lesson, and I don’t think it’s a disgrace for boxing in the least.

  • gahdlei says:

    OMG. STFU

  • Patrick White says:

    Mayweather’s KO may have been technically legal, but it was definitely un-sportsmanlike and cowardly. Mayweather fans may rush to defend him, but deep down they know that he cheated Ortiz, the boxing fans and himself.

  • october says:

    no need to say floyd cheated , ref said fight , nd he knocked him out.

  • polo says:

    u play dirty expect the same. He grabbed ropes and jumped in the air with a head butt. Tried to knock him out . He deserved what he got. Guy is weak minded he was getting his tail whipped and wanted a way out. U didnt see him complain after the fight he knew he was wrong.

  • June says:

    Boxing sport just died today.

  • OMG! says:

    is that boxing? clearly FLOYD MAYNEVER IS A DISGRACE TO THE SPORT!! And you FLOYDIOTS STILL PRAISE THE CRACKHEAD!!! OMG!

  • Steve Wilson says:

    LET ME BREAK IT DOWN FOR FIGHT FANS: Head butt me …then throw two power shots after (with the intent on knocking me unconscious in front of the world)….then kiss me on the cheek (at this point I think your loco)…then meet me in the center of the ring wrap your arms around me ..then put your hands down (like we are friends)…then sit your simple self down on the canvas and go take that check home to your family. I would have loved to see 12 rounds–but that kid got what he needed. Period

  • Lee says:

    Cortez was bad but he isn’t the reason Ortiz lost. Nobody could have stopped Ortiz from eating straight right hands all night. He already hugged Floyd once, he has to hug him again to apologize? That’s not sportsmanship. That’s called a soft heart which does not belong in boxing.

  • Saj says:

    All those giving the guy stick clearly don’t know anything about boxing! I’ve got all the respect for Ortiz but this is not about hugs & kisses. FM has unbelievable talent, someone who takes his work very seriously, a real pro, you get paid to do a job and when the bell goes you do it!

  • Hotprince28 says:

    Well let’s see if he fight PAC man. All of you’ll praising mayweather but when Larry was ready to ask a question about PAC man mayweather started acting crazy. I don’t like mayweather and Ortiz wad doing ok when he had Floyd on the ropes. Floyd font know how to beat PAC man for all you’ll mayweather lovers that’s why he is not quick to fight him. He is still trying to figure out PAC man. Pacman will hurt mayweather with pressure all day. So all of you’ll know boxing and know mAyweather is voiding PAC man fools. Also PAC man ain’t going for all that crazy sh$t and sneaky punch sh$t.

  • BigPoppaPump says:

    I don’t think Ortiz would have won..but he was starting to come on…and boxing is a young man game…

    Floyd is cheap…he didn’t have to win this way…

    Those shots were fast though…I blink an Ortiz was on the floor…

  • Hector L. Collazo says:

    cortez needs to retire. Just like the fighter should protect himself at all times…the ref should keep his eyes on the fight at times especially when he sets them up to fight.

    cortez was a very good ref at one time…its time to say good by cortez

  • Star says:

    What the hell u mean, he threw a headbutt. The ref said let’s go…ko. Boxing is not kissing hugging
    Mayweather is the greatest

  • JC says:

    FM, the biggest clown in boxing history.

  • Kid says:

    Floods the best period!

  • bravestar says:

    Floyd dominated from the beginning to the end, this is boxing not tennis or golf stupid c*n*s…
