Donaire: "It was legal but I would NEVER pull a 'Mayweather'"

nah... the win is tainted... Phuck it, a win is a win....OrTREES wasn't going to win anyway right,the gap in class was too much hence the intentional headbutt.

Donaire needs to shut the phuck up...Cortez gave the hand signal to fight and Ortiz still wanted to kiss and hug....Floyd did what he had to do. Who cares if Donaire wouldn't pull a "Mayweather"....he said it himself, it was legal. Why is everyone focused on Mayweather did and NOT on what Ortiz did. It looked like Cortez gave the signal to touch gloves. The signal to fight is usually just one hand going down in between the fighters. Cortez gave the signal to touch gloves by touching his hands together. That's why both fighters including Mayweather went to touch gloves and hug.

If you were a boxer, done that, and be happy with that win. You'll be scrutinized your entire career.

Only if I was a scared ***** and wanted to end the fight as soon as possible even tho I was dominating would have I pulled a "mayweather". Last time when he hit Gatti during the break and they blamed the ref Earl Mortin but like Gatti said "thats ****ing bull****"!!

That IS YOUR OPINION....the fact is that Cortez said it was legal and I agree with him and so does the NSAC. PROTECT YOURSELF AT ALL TIME. nah... the win is tainted...

it was a sucker punch and his win is tainted.... DEAL WITH IT That IS YOUR OPINION....the fact is that Cortez said it was legal and I agree with him and so does the NSAC. PROTECT YOURSELF AT ALL TIME.

suck punched? you say tomato, I say toMATOE...If the ref said it was legal, it's legal...case closed. At this point on, you and Donaire are just injecting your opinion that are not fact. Cortez gave the hand signal and Floyd KO him after the umpteen HUG from a CHEATING OrTREES it was a sucker punch and his win is tainted.... DEAL WITH IT

on the face of it it was a cheap dirty shot but Cortez was partly responsible for not giving clear instructions, also id say no id never do this but im not sure id feel the same had someone just try to headbutt me, it cheapend the win for sure and it was a shame the fight ended this way, but if anything its yet more evidence somthhing is seriously wrong with Cortez, this man should not be reffing whatsoever and shouldnt have been for a long long time, always his fights are surrounded in contreversy,

nonito keeping it real... the suckerpunch was legal, but shows that wifebeater is lowlife scum... wifebeater is lacking in personal character... he is a pure villian with no redeeming qualities... if not for his impressive boxing skills, he'd be friendless and a social outcast Why are you ignoring what OrTREES did you moron.....Floyd didn't just "suckerpunch" him, it happened for a reason. Wifebeater indeed...go beat your meat and STFU.

Floyd’s crusade to clean up the sports (not just boxing but all of sports) as well as the voice of the so-called “even playing field,” I’d bet he’ll be the runaway winner of the Sports Illustrated "Sportsman of the Year" award! :lol1:

Someone like Floyd who always conplains of being criticized shouldnt be going anywhere near unsportsmanlike tactics like that.

9 outta 10 times i'd do what floyd did.. What if it happened to you? would u start complaining and hope for another pay day? Ortiz shouldve kept his arms up after the first shot, ref said "lets go" and signaled they fight, Ortiz wanted to hug even though they tapped gloves after the headbutt http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jD15cR4ke4w&feature=player_embedded

mayweather tried to fake a sportmanship hug while all along planning to set up a cheap shots. whatta b1tch Floyd is a sport... Coming in last minute heavier for marquez, sucker punching oritz, asking manny to do OST. Yeah the guy is a very credible sportsman.

Cortez gave the hand signal and Floyd KO him after the umpteen HUG from a CHEATING OrTREES Ortiz deserved that indeed. But im not impressed with floyd KO'ing a dude who had his hands down and looking away. That might be acceptable in the streets, but this is a PROFESSIONAL fight. And floyd didnt have to stoop to vic's level. It shows that both share the same maturity level. Floyd's sucker punch robbed the fans of a decent fight.

It can be classless, it can be unsportmanike, even opportunistic, but unforunately, its still legal. End thread Forget the bolded words, as long as it is legal... The mentality of uneducated scum.

Which is what made Floyd's actions weirder. If Donaire were in Floyd's position, we'd expect him to get mad and brutally embarrass his opponent for the rest of the fight and possibly KO him. Floyd and Donaire are both skilled enough to do that to almost anyone. I think that's what a lot of us were expecting from Floyd as well. That Floyd was going to go up a gear and really kick Victor's ass even worse for the next few rounds. A lot of people probably feel that Floyd's actions cheapened his victory because up to that point, he fought the fight in such a high class, but he didn't finish it in the same level of class. And that, in a nutshell, is how your average viewer will see the ending of this fight. Shame too, because Floyd would have most likely whooped ortiz worse over the next few rounds and really made a point of things. If that would have happened, people would have talked about the awakening of the Floyd of old...who got slightly emotional and whooped his opponents ass for it.

coulda shoulda woulda...... I bet Mayweather would outbox the klitschkos aswell if they were in the same weight class. Why should he give him props? he sucker punched his opponent and got a KO... suck punched? you say tomato, I say toMATOE...If the ref said it was legal, it's legal...case closed. At this point on, you and Donaire are just injecting your opinion that are not fact. Cortez gave the hand signal and Floyd KO him after the umpteen HUG from a CHEATING OrTREES

there was nothing wrong with what floyd did people are saying he should have stoped in the middle of the fight and hugged ortiz really
