Yeah I agree with that assessment MM.
Boxingtalk have a good write up where they say Ortiz deliberately fouled Floyd then turned into a submissive puppy dog, all apologetic and begging forgiveness.
It reminded me a bit of the Khan Maidana fight where, after almost being KO'd Khan suddenly wanted to start hugging his opponent who just kept trying to hit him.
Ortiz should have been paying more attention.
But what Floyd did was a real bitch move, although if I'm honest, pretty fucking gangsta.
His verbal spat with Merchant though was disgraceful. He has no respect for anyone and Larry, for all his bravado looked visibly shaken by it to me.
He should get a big fine for that.
