"The sucker punch is a common street fighting technique. Experts may feign fear or friendliness to put their opponent off guard or approach him from the side or rear to deliver a surprise blow."

LMAO...Floyd the ATG can knock you out with the check hook, the sucker punch...what great offensive technique will we see in his next fight?!!

Don't know about Great fighters but fighters always takes advantage however he can get them. It's not Floyd's fault that Ortiz is ******.

No matter how anyone would twist it, it was a sucker punch. Only a low moral, vile and cowardly fighters resort to it, especially if against an overly matched 7 to 1 underdog opponent.

the greatest boxer of all time doesn't need to suckerpunch to win impressively.... therefore wifebeater cannot be the GOAT.

It's the job of the ref to deduct a point or to disqualify a fighter if he persists in using illegal tactics. It does not give Floyd the right to sucker punch his opponent. Btw, this is not the first time he has done this.
With his supposed skills he should have simply schooled and humiliated that mismatched 7 to 1 underdog. There's no denying that what he did instead was disgraceful and an act of cowardice.

It's his "right" because it was within the rules of boxing.

I'm not saying I agree with it. But you all are acting like what he did was against some sort of boxing "rules", and it's not.

Wanna blame someone? Blame Ortiz. He should have known better.

Mayweather never put his arms out for a hug, Idk why everyone is acting like he did. He tapped gloves with ortiz and then was in fight mode, its Ortizs fought that he was trying to hug

[tatangb45]

No one is saying that it is was against the rules. People are saying that only low level fighters resort to that kind of cowardly tactics to ko an opponent. Against a no matched opponent at that. Read the definition of sucker punch and see how it fits exactly Floyd's action.

[hugh grant]

It was legal what Floyd did i hear, but i havent heard many condone what Floyd did.

If people do accept what floyd did was fair, the whole of boxing needs to be reassessed and Floyd has created a new precedent. Boxers have been touching gloves for centuries and Floyd alone, may have changed the course of boxing forever.

THe amount of time SSM touched Pacs gloves, so Pac missed the opportunity to be the first to stop SSM.

How come when these polls come out, *****s are extremely outnumbered yet they post like the world got the same opinions they do.
