It's not just Cortez, the rules don't seem to apply to the top guys in the sport. You have some rules on the list, "pivot punch" and leaving the neutral corner, made to protect the most popular fighters. The sport allows guys like Mayweather and Pacquiao to make their own rules in the contract. Thus, even the rules while fighting are disregarded. The sport needs to enforce only the rules that they've made to ensure a level contest. No more catchweights and no more elbows.Comment
