For the first time in a long time. Not just us hardcore fans, but even the less then casual fan has gone out of their way to witness the controversy.
I rememeber after watching the fight live i went outside my house with my friends and random neighbors were walking up to us asking what we thought of the outcome.
Even at work there were people who never even follow boxing who had gone out of their way to watch this one, be it live or online after the fact. 1 dude mentioned that he was the only person he knew who hadn't seen it yet.
Every memorable fight has a touch of controversy, Ortiz and Mayweather managed to make people pay attention to boxing, even if it may have been for the wrong reason, it still managed something that hasn't happened in some time.
