Victor Ortiz vs. Floyd Mayweather Jr.

[JT Rock]

No one has acknowledged Ortiz was only sorry about the butt because he got caught. He threw 2 punches to a defenseless Floyd who was looking at Cortez. That's a fact!! and if Floyd got Ko'd you'd all be laughing. That was the craziest sequence I have ever seen in a fight and that spans a ton of Tyson fights.. Lol

I was cheering for Mayweather and I was disgusted by his actions. I also would not laugh if Ortiz had KO'd Mayweather after the butt, I'd be just as pissed off.

How come Ortiz can hit Floyd 2X while he is defenseless and looking away. The kid was sorry he got caught. Floyd never tried hugging him he had his hands on Victors chest. His body language didnt signify he was OK with it, Ortiz assumed he was straight after that and was over compensating because he didnt want to get beat up!! This is boxing and Ortiz looked like a kid in that moment and realized how brutal it could be

He didn't get away with butting and hitting Floyd, he got a point deducted and if it happened again he should have been disqualified.

Floyd absolutely approached him like he was going to hug/touch gloves. As soon as Ortiz was defenseless and Cortez was looking away, he struck. It was within the rules, but an absolutely childish and pathetic move by a great fighter who should be above those things.

Im talking about the moral high road most are taking on this. Ortiz butted and hit a defenseless Floyd who was looking away with the intent on gaining an advantage and was begging for forgiveness ONLY after getting in trouble. His intentions were obvious and Floyd started fighting when the action resumed. He did it to Gatti and to Mosely because the time was in and the action was on. If you look at Floyd his body language was anything but accepting of an apology. He retaliated plain and simple.

Sad part was Ortiz looked happy that the fight was over, weird stuff

I don't see anyone saying that Ortiz didn't do anything wrong, only that he was appropriately punished for it.

Ortiz always looks happy, he was the same way after he quit against Maidana. It's a total facade IMO.

Its the intent Ortiz had. Tried to illegally gain an advantage to win, Mayweather did the same but stretched it legally yet he is getting scourged unbelievable here. You cant punish somemone who didnt break the rules.

And Ortiz was appropriately punished, I don't dispute that.

Mayweather didn't break the rules, but he broke convention. Stuff like what Ortiz was doing happens all the time after a foul, blatant or no, and it's convention for the other fighters to either accept the apology or to refuse but allow his opponent to put his guard back up.

I agree it was not something we are accustomed too, it was less than Manly to win that way. Floyd did it to Gatti and Mosely too so he is consistent. Seems like he is ruthless and acutely aware of every angle and takes every oppurtunity ala Hopkins

[JT Rock]

The whole evening was really bizarre, lampley kept crediting punches from the wrong fighter and was corrected by the other guys on numerous occasions. Also seemed like they were overrating what Ortiz was doing, I thought Hatton, DLH put more leather on PBF and Shane almost knocked him down.. To weird of a night for me

[Youngblood]

Hand down man down. Momma there goes that man.

This is analogy maybe you wont get, but it's to do with soccer.
There is a foul near the penalty area and Thierry Henry (French Player playing for Arsenal) asks the ref if he can take it early. The defending team dont react quick enough and he scores. To me this is the same thing. How long should Mayweather wait for Ortiz to decide to put his hands up if the ref has said/or at least Mayweather has noticed he said continue?

[Truth]

JT when has Hopkins hit an opponent who albeit of his own volition is completely defenseless. Bending the rules is one thing, bitching out is another.

Well he did fake a low blow that one time

Plus I don't see how faking pain is less 'bitchy' than punching a guy really hard in the face

then you missed Ortiz hitting Floyd 2X while he was defenseless after butting him, the more I replay and settle I realize it is not as bad as I originally felt. Im not endorsing/condoning but more or less think Ortiz was getting swallowed up in the enormity of it all

[Latim]

This is boxing. He hugged Mayweather, then touched gloves. He then tried to hug him AGAIN. What's wrong with this guy. Sure it's unsportsmanlike to do but this is a violent sport. When someone is hugging and touching that often in a fight it means they want out. This sport is very brutal and if you do something stupid like that you can't blame anyone but yourself.

I agree. Mayweather put his gloves up, as that is the 'sporting' thing to do, but had Ortiz looked at his face since the headbutt continuing on to the action resuming it was fairly obviously he wasnt content with an apologetic kiss from ortiz.
