Well obviously hes gonna make out now that he couldn't make the count but if u watch the fight he kinda makes it up to his knees then doesn't bother any further. I know there's been numerous occasions before where boxer's have done this, but something seemed up with this.
Yupp the counts came in before Cortez even seen it, my heart sunk asoon as I saw he was the ref.
I dunno.
Even though i am natural I actually think this could be a possibility
What Ortiz done was far worse than what Floyd done. U see him clearly miss that flurry and attempt the flying head butt out of frustration, what Floyd done was pretty unfair, but it was legal, and the opportunity was there, why shouldn't he take it? in snooker they say you should "never say sorry for flukes"
Pretty much the same here, I don't think Floyd gets the credit he deserves, compare him to the undercard fighters, I've never seen anyone in recent history block, parry and roll as well as that, it was phenomenal.
Ortiz didn't stiffen his legs out, like that though, I'm not suggesting he didn't get knocked down, or would have fully made the count, but I don't think he tried to make the count as best he could have, that's all.
Truth is Ortiz WAS getting KO'd probably in the 7th/8th because if he kept that work rate up for another 4 or so rounds he would have tired himself out n basically handed his belt to Floyd
It's a shame, people won't realise how great he is until 40/50 years from now. He's the Ali of our time IMO, (No I'm not comparing him technically to Ali)
