Can we please stop trash talking Mayweather/Ortiz and admit it was a great fight?

      Yes, this is what I mean. He was a serious opponent at the very least.

      He IS similar to Judah. Every time he almost rises to the occasion...he doesn't. I just keep wondering what would have happened had that final sequence of events gone down. I think it was on its way to being more competitive, though I think Floyd would have won. Even though no one ever looks good against Floyd, Ortiz was looking better than most. Can anyone agree on that?

        It's actually the name of a book I like. You should check it out. If your open to having your beliefs challenged...It's not for the faint of heart.

            fun while it lasted, but it wasn't a great fight
            it was a tuneup where the perfunctory guy landed some shots

              Mayweather looked very impressive and Ortiz didn't have a bad showing at all. Can anyone agree with this? Or are we all just a bunch of fan boys obsessed with giving these guys Blow jobs all day?
              it was indeed a great fight and floyd surprised me with how aggressive he was.

              and ortiz gave it his all and actually had floyd on the ropes.

              Pity the headbutt and crappy ending ruined an otherwise great fight.

                  i am of the opinion that IF ortiz DIDN'T headbutt, floyd would have still won... by KO most likely even. though i also gave ortiz the puncher's chance since he was actually a live opponent.

                    The KO definitely COULD have come, but it was no guarantee. I think we see this the same way though. Beyond a punchers chance he also showed pretty decent timing too. Btw, I wanted Floyd to win because of the Pac fight, so I have no favoritism toward Ortiz.
