the entire situation revolves around the head butt and multiple attempted butts. ortiz was on the bull**** from the jump. he even kissed him with the first apology revealing how floyd had him mind ****ed since the prefight hype. he wasnt sorry for the butt. had the fight went on he wouldvt did more dirt......**** him.

Mayweather has done it against Arturo Gatti as well. One would think that the best fighter in the world shouldn't have to resort to sucker punches.

There are unwritten rules in boxing and all sports. I could easily hit a guy when he's going to touch gloves with me at the beginning of the fight but that wouldn't be looked on as really cool.

What Floyd did was technically legal but was one of the cheapest, low life things I have ever seen in boxing. It's up there with Mike Tyson biting Evander's ear IMO.

Ortiz should defend himself at all times but when a guy extends his hands as if to accept your apology, your not expecting to get hit.

I agree...what Ortiz done is up there with Tyson......what makes it even worse was the fatc that he was doing good in that round.....LETS NOT EVER FORGET THAT, PLEASE

I know the trollers on here are loving this time but I don't care for ****** **** like that. Putting my dislike for Floyd aside I'm going to tell you what really happened.

Three things happened that were wrong.

First one was the headbutt by Ortiz, it was a clear foul and you could see the kid was frustrated by Floyd's defense.

Second was the sucker punch that Floyd hit Ortiz with. Legal technically but it was clearly a cheap shot that ended what could have been an entertaining fight.

Third was Joe Cortez job of the fight. He should have ushered the fighters to a neutral corner, then started the clock and then initiated the fight once again. Instead he allowed the fighters to wander in the middle of the ring and let Floyd sucker punch Ortiz.

The biggest problem I have in all of this, is that if Ortiz came towards Floyd with his hands down and Floyd was ready to fight and Floyd hit him then and KO'd him, then I would say it was Ortiz' fault. What happened though was Floyd came at him with his hands down as if to accept the apology and if you watch the replay closely, waited the second they separated from the hug and hit him with a left hook and then hit him with a right hand when Ortiz was looking at the ref like "wtf ref?"

Sorry but I can't call this a win for Floyd. He would have won anyway because I feel he was outclassing Ortiz but Floyd showed the person he REALLY is. His yelling of his father on tv, him insulting Larry Merchant and then hitting after the break like he did vs Shane, Arturo and now Ortiz shows that Floyd has no respect for anything.

Floyd is the greatest fighter I have seen in my life time and I have seen Leonard, Duran and Chavez Sr but Floyd the person has no worth. I feel sorry for all you that look up to him. Where have all the real men gone?

Perhaps floyd is tired of being disrespected himself. This fight felt very wierd and i definitely expected more for my money. But there is no way you can equate legal puches with an illegal headbutt. Plain and simple, floyd gave what he got. How any man can find fault with that is beyond me.

If Floyd just swung at him like Maidana did at Khan when ever Khan thought about touching gloves, i would have been fine with it

But Floyd Came pretending to give him a hug and unloaded while his body was completely limp and not even looking

Yes he was, I thought he was getting his after 3 rounds of frustrations. Floyd missed a right and he went into a swarming attack but then he got too over excited and heat butted. Dayum. All these shits was ignited by that head butt.

Floyd's too good of a fighter to throw that kind of cheap shot

i mean come on, Ortiz is eating Floyd's lead right all night
