Cortez's mess up did not ruin the fight!

He clearly does not have the awareness or the competency to be ref'ing big fights anymore.

He did warn Ortiz after the first headbutt, just not the 3 after that LOL.

Now that you mention it, I think you're right. He had to see the butts landed after the warning which makes it even worse, IMO. The point should've been taken away before Victor got so carried away with it.

Cortez should be blamed equally as FLoyd. Because Cortez is counting Ortiz out, and he dont even know why Ortiz is on the floor because he sure as wasnt looking at the fight! He dont know if someone threw something from the crowd and hit ORitz, or FLoyds uncle came in the ring to hit Ortiz or if Floyd roundhouse kicked Ortiz in revenge for the headbutts.

He should have given Ortiz time to recover and resume the fight.

Right off the bat, you're wrong

check the gif... Where's Floyd standing, where's Ortiz standing? They're both at neutral corners walking toward each other after Cortez says "let's go"

Lol, there r too many copy cats on this site. None of them care to do their own research, they just copy wut other people say....

with the time on the clock, cortez should've been right there almost in between them anyways to SEPARATE them for the END OF ROUND!!!!

Again, did u not see with your own eyes how close Cortez was when the knockdown occurred? If Floyd threw a wide right hook instead of a straight he would have ended up hitting Cortez

IT IS CORTEZ'S JOB TO KEEP ALL EYES ON THE FIGHTERS WHILE TIME IS CALLED IN!!!

IDK if he was ensuring the time was on, or if he was checking how much time was left, but in the end him not looking at the fighters has nothing to do with the KO. When the ref says "Let's go!" you're not suppose to be worried about what the ref is doing, you're suppose to look at you're opponent

HE'S SUPPOSED TO BE ONE OF THE TOP IN HIS PROFESSION AND HAVE A MILLENNIUM YEARS WORTH OF RING EXPERIENCE............. AND THIS INCOMPETENCE IS WHAT WE GOT!?!?!? GET THE FVCK OUT OF HERE WITH THAT WEAK *****!!!!

You mad?




Anyway, everything else u say falls under the "THE FIGHT FIXED!" theory, which means its completely irrelevant becuz anyone that's not a hater or a crybaby knows that BULLshit

If that isn't a failure of a ref then nothing is.

You sure about that?

The gif proves the bold wrong, Mayweather is at 1 neutral corner, Ortiz is at the other, Cortez says "Lets Go!", the 2 come together...

Like I said, Cortez is an incompetent referee, but if u actually UNDERSTOOD wut this thread was about, you'd know I was saying that Cortez isn't to blame for the KO. Not paying attention to the fighters, although certainly a referee's mistake, has nothing to do with Ortiz not paying attention to Floyd.

If a raccoon was trying to steal ur apple pie, and ur mom told u to watch it, and u hear the theme song to ur favorite cartoon in the background and look away, resulting in the pie being stolen being stolen by the raccoon... Do u blame the TV show for distracted you? No, u have a job to do, and failed, so its ur fault!

That's funny, cause Cortez had his mouth wide open as Floyd landed the right.
