100% legal 1,2 and 100% justified considering all those headutts especially that last one...protect ur self at all times.

Cortez is the biggest joke of a high profile ref there ever was. This is like the 5th high profile fight he's ruined in that many years. Tell me why he wasn't even looking at the fighters when the action restarted? It's because he never said to start fighting again and then all of the sudden he wants to start counting like he was on top of ****. No you weren't you sorry dumb sp*ck mother****er. You are ****. You are the one who needs fired, not Merchant.

**** BUM A55 CORTEZ!

This picture says it all! Cortiz is on Floyd payroll.

Cortez' description is such bull****. He wasn't even watching. How does he know that's what happened? He's just going by the tape. At least have the balls to say you didn't see what happened. Regardless of how you feel about Floyd's shots, Cortez is a disgrace.

So if im getting it correctly, it was ok to headbutt someone, but not okay for that person to strike back??

There is a big difference between what Mayweather did and what Ortiz did, what Mayweather did was legal therefore he wasn't docked nor Dq'd, was Ortiz did was illegal thats why a point was taking.

Boxing fans, I don't see why you attempt to argue with some of these guys, these are the same people who defend Pacquio ducking OST, they already have shown that they support cheaters.

Floyd using his elbow as punch and forearm to choke are legal as well?

that combo was a 3-2 combination not a 1-2 combo 3 is a left hook 2 is straight right,1 is a jab and etc.....cmon man

Ortiz was sacrificed for a measly $2M while Berto fought bums for $1M a pop. This is the biggest INEXPERIENCE. Victor should check his math with his tattered rep.

I can tell that YOU NEVER been in a real fight because in a bar fight, ANYTHING goes ******. People get hit with chairs, bottles, tables and everything else SUCKER. I would hate be anywhere with you when something jumped off because you would most likely get punched in your face and say "What you do that for?" and run the way you're talking.

**** a real fight, this is prizefighting at the highest level. Cortez never said start fighting again, plain and simple. Had he said that, fair game. He didn't as indicated in the ****ing fact that he wasn't even looking at the fighters yet and how had he called the fight to commence when the Floyd huggers say he did the clock would have expired for the round by the time Floyd threw those sucker shots. There was 9 seconds left in the rd when Cortez called time out.

It's bs and if you think otherwise, so suck Floyd's c*ck some more.

*this is coming from a fan who never liked cortez, ima steve smolger guy*

1- cortez said "GO!"

2- Ortiz hugged Floyd 1 too many times after landing an INTENTIONAL headbutt , one of the dirtiest I've seen since Holyfield.

3- fans are paying big money to see you beat Floyd , not kiss him.

4- Floyd hugged him twice , touched gloves , what is he suppose to do , tell Ortiz " hey im going to hit u now , cover up" ??

5- imagine if Floyd wouldve headbutted Ortiz and Victor knocks him out during an embrace , i bet my life that it would NOT be a controversy or even a topic of discussion, the media would crucify him "hahaa u lost" **** like that.

i feel that Victor was frustrated , he could not land anything on Floyd and he was trying his best , even in that final flurry if you watch in slow motion, he mostly punching at air. so his inexperience and weak mind led him to do something very dirty. ( why is nobody talking about that headbutt though? )

Floyd was on his way to executing his prey , those right hands were landing at will. if i was of mexican heritage il disown Ortiz ,he couldve gotten up but he didnt want any of that beast Floyd anymore. his name should never be on a PPV event ever again.

my point is , the headbutt was way more dirtier than the knockout , but peoples hate for Floyd makes em overlook that.

Hey its like WWE

The referee will look away and one combatant will punch the other then the referee look back and count.
