      Froyd "Cheapshot" Gayweather picked:

      The Venue
      The Referee
      The Glove's
      The Judges
      The Ring Size
      etc etc etc.

      Gayweather cant win a fight legitly, so he needs to act like a Mayweather.

      Mayweather (definition): a low life scum who's family tree is full of criminals and illiterate ******s who think that money buys someone class. Have no honor, or respect for anyone including its own family, will kill their own brother/mother/sister for $20.

      So Floyd picked Cortez because he is a Mayweather

          it was the gloves that pissed me off most and really the only thing before the fight started. I was expecting Vic to wear Reyes like he did vs Berto (YES I believe gloves make a difference), but whatever he signed the contract and I paid to watch it, so... I didn't expect Cortez to act like a twat after all that scrutiny...wrong again.

              Ortiz had a choice of 6 refs, it came down to Cortez and some guy Burke. Maybe they just went with the latino?

              I have no idea, but in choosing Cortez they signed their own death warrant for this fight.

                i know why mayweather wanted cortez but i have no idea why ortiz would agree to have him ref. that's when i knew he didn't care about actually winning. any b-side who lets that joker ref their fight deserves to lose.

                  I think he wanted to win and I don't think he quit but I don't think he wanted to win badly, he wasn't ready to die in there by any means.

                    Ortiz picked Cortez. I heard it on the radio, I think it may have been Keiran Mulvaney who said it.

                    I guess the thinking that Cortez was so criticized for being pro-Floyd in the Hatton fight that he would overcompensate towards Ortiz. Didn't seem to work out so well!
