Cheap Shot or Good Shot? Poll

[Ring Leader]

That's the game. It's alright people pontificating about being sporting, but where was Ortiz being sporting when he tried to headbutt Mayweather ?

but did the headbutt ko mayweather? floyd did it in an *******-ish type of way

It was a legal punch and Ortiz knows you should protect yourself at all times but it was a cheap shot.

sucker punch jr.

The most frustrating part was the fight was just starting to get good. After the headbutt I was hoping mayweather was going to kick it in high gear and put on a clinic...but nope, he pulled a wwe instead.

Ortiz was a dumb ass for trying to hug and Floyd took advantage of a stupid boxer. Nothing illegal in what Floyd did, it's not his fault Ortiz is a moron and dropped his guard when in boxing you're suppose to protect yourself at all times.

Mayweather hit Ortiz with a clean legal shot when the ref had said to fight on.

Ref never said "fight on"

Nothing cheap or illegal about it. Ortiz was the one with the cheap shot.

Apart from that, Ortiz had already apologized directly and hugged Floyd after the headbutt ; there was no need for a second hug and apology.

The referee said "box", Victor came towards Floyd to apologize, Mayweather showed signs of accepting the apology by tapping gloves, Victor went for a hug after that, dropped his guard, and got KTFO'd.

Nothing cheap about it.

Honestly I dont see how people can complain about this. It never would have happened if Ortiz didnt headbutt Floyd in the first place. If the ref says to fight, you fight. Its not like Ortiz had won a single round at that point anyhow, and Floyd gets much better as the fight wears on.

The left hook was cheap, but well deserved, and perfectly legal....

But the second punch was both legal, and "un-cheap".... You'd think after getting hit AT ALL, EVER in a boxing match, you'd think to put ur hands up right after. But he kept them down, and by then Cortez already got the clock started, so that KO shot was PURE!!!!
