watch the fight and video he clear as day tells them to fight on.
Good lesson to all boxers: be always ready. Ortiz could only blame himself. On the other hand those almost 4 rounds clearly proved that FM was winning the fight. No doubt.
Hopely Ortiz stop whining and start to learn what professional boxing is all about.

Zero - you heard Cortez call "box on" I said to my mate before fight that it could be interesting as Cortez is poor and not been up to standard in recent fights. 100% down to Cortez - AWFUL!Quote:

So if Cortez did say "box on" we wouldn't have been able to hear it anyway. If people who watched the HBO coverage heard him then I believe them, but that doesn't excuse Cortez's poor handling of the situation, nor explain why he was flirting with the timekeeper.
I saw it on Primetime and I heard him call fight on. Cortez has made a statement too.Quote:
