Ortiz knock out loss in the controversial manner is a blessing in disguise for Ortiz.

[littlemac]

This was a blessing in disguise for Ortiz to get knocked out in the controversial manner, because casual and Ortiz fans will have their defense mechanism prop them to think that Ortiz was still in the fight and that if it wasn't for the so called cheap shot, Ortiz would have won, making Ortiz still marketable to bank off these idiots, while everyone else knew Ortiz was getting walked down and was not landing that many clean shots as people thought he was. Ortiz was tiring, getting walked down, and not able to land many clean shots so out of frustration he headed butted Floyd. Ortiz was pretty much done at the fourth round and had no alternative then to play dirty to try and level the playing field his way cause Ortiz knew he was on his way of getting himself stopped.

Super-cosign.


Look at Ortiz' record. He doesn't stop guys late. Ortiz has early power. And in four rounds, he didn't make a dent on Floyd. Shane and Zab landed better shots on Floyd.

Ortiz was done. He bailed himself out of a Gatti-esque beating. VO was tryingt o get himself DQ'd. That is what you call "pulling a Zab".

Zab is an expert at finding creative ways to avoid a beating.

I sensed it too. It's like they planned it all along.

Garcia to Ortiz : "If worse come to worst, head-butt his ass. That'll slow him down.

Or, not in disguise, a rigged job to get a rematch/easy payday.

Co-Sign!! I personally thought Oritz was mentally broken by Floyd. He's not a dirty fighter but when he headbutted Floyd that told me that he was gonna loss that fight weather it be Ko'd or just totally dominated thurout the fight.

One thing's for sure; the fact it ended as it did has sort of let Ortiz get away with that headbutt. I still don't get how he didn't get or hasn't been pressed on that matter more.

In his post-fight interview he said he didn't mean it & that he didn't intentionally do it but you can clearly see him pull back & charge with the head.

Lost a lot of respect for Ortiz in this fight; especially with his reaction after the fight. It was almost as though he didn't give a dam. I'm not say cry in the ring but the guy showed no anger or frustration @ what Floyd did. It was just like he accepted it, sort of how he did it with Maidana. That ****** ass grin burns me up.

*****s are dumb az ****... ortiz just started to get aggressive... not saying he would've won, but the fight just started to get interesting.

[bojangles1987]

Anyone who fools themselves into thinking Ortiz was in anyway competitive through those four rounds, and I've seen people on here saying he was, is just hating on Floyd because they can't stand to give him credit.

I can't stand the man but Floyd Mayweather the fighter was REALLY freaking good in this fight. He was going to have Ortiz crying in a corner if that fight kept going.

yep, I gave floyd the first three rounds but Ortiz landed two big shots in the 4th and the fight was beginning to open up

Blessing in disguise? If you meant blessed with a ****** brain, no heart, idiotic responses and no future other than a mediocre welterweight......then I agree with you.
