Comments Thread For: Mayweather Sr. - What Floyd Did Was 100% Fair!

[jbpanama]

You guys criticize Floyd but don't criticize Ortiz for Headbutting Floyd and following it up with a cheap punch? I saw the replays of the infamous "sucker punch" and Ortiz was looking right at Floyd the moment the first punch landed. Yeah Ortiz didn't have his hands up but who's fault is that?

The guy fought cheap and got KO'd in a dicey but completely fair way.

Ortiz stood there like he was waiting for the next BUS!!!

calling double dribble on a ******ed kid is also fair....

That dont make it right.

Next time I see this monkey I'll punch his face if he's not looking at me, hope he says that's fair..

only a scumbag would take that shot...

if you win a boxing match, you wanna win it with your skills, not with a suckerpunch...

only a real scumbag would gloat about suckerpunchign someone in a boxing match...

I pretty much agree man, but as usual, you are only telling half of the story, the convenient half.

1.) "if you win a boxing match, you wanna win it with your skills, not with a suckerpunch".....

I simply cannot argue with that, good call. The problem is, Mayweather was winning the fight with his skills. What did you think of the "skills" that Ortiz used to cut Mayweathers mouth?
(Vic is my boy, Im just playing devils advocate here)

I agree with you that the right-hand was uncalled for, unsportsmanlike, and a cheap shot. But it was perfectly legal, and obviously in response to an earlier foul.

The word "scumbag" dont fit with anything here, except your already existing intense dislike for Mayweather.

let's be honest, Floyd did everything by rules, ref gave a command to box, Victor came to him with appologize after it Floyd gave him two punches, the first was like a slap after it Victor should have protect himself and the second was a hard punch that sent Victor to KO. the only fault there was Victor's that approached to Floyd to appologize for the third time and ref that wasn't seeing what's going on but if you look at this fight attentionlly you will see that he gave a command to box, so Floyd is 100% right here.

He did, I agree, but I can sort of see where pullcounter is coming from.

It was a cheap shot, and completely uncalled for (the right hand, not the hook).

The point is, the fight finished in a controversial fashion unnecessarily.

I was disappointed in the finish, I wanted to see what would play out.

Mayweather did not need to take that shot, he was in control of the fight.

A legitimate contest would have been much more enjoyable.

Ortiz headbutt cut Mayweather in the mouth. Ortiz deserved everything he got and more. ANYONE who thrusts his head in an obviously deliberate manner like that, should be disqualified on the spot. If anyone here was a boxer and was cut in the mouth like that from a guy who wanted to hurt you illegally, you would do the same in the heat of the moment.

[richardt]

Mayweather COULD have fouled Ortiz and did NOT! He kept his head and did a smart, cunning thing. Especially since his opponent wanted to kiss and hug him after trying to hurt him outside the rules of boxing. I sure as hell condone what Mayweather did....what would you do with a cut in the mouth like that from a punk move by a guy you were fighting?

[BmoreBrawler]

Ok, I'll give you "what Floyd did was 100% fair" if you give me "I thought Oscar won the fight"-Floyd mayweather sr, post Mayweather/De La Hoya...

[lets rumble]

42-0 ...........
