HBO's re-writing of Ortiz-Mayweather

[Dudley]

I thought he was taking the 4th until the headbutt but regardless it is annoying that HBO are pandering to Mayweather like that. The editing and scriptwriting of that part may as well have been written by one of the braindead flomos on here.

Ortiz was nowhere near being broke down or stopped, Mayweather took a cheap shot and HBO should acknowledge the negative publiciy and controversy it caused instead of painting that Mayweather put on an all-conquering performance stopping his spent opponent in the 4th - it wasn't like that.

Ortiz from every angle, compubox stat, fan polling says that Mayweather won. lol. HBO laid it out as it was.

Unfortunatly, in your case, when reality is not enough, lies will suffice. smh.

it's a shame joe cortez didn't die of cancer when he had it

This could be the funniest thing i ever read

I like both fighters and while Floyd was winning he was also getting hit, and Ortiz did better in those 4 rounds then Marquez and Mosley(aside from him stunning floyd) did put together, he was getting leather on Floyd's face and has power to change a fight, I doubt it would have happened but definitely could have been a good fight if it continued, I also have no problem with the way it ended

They made it sound like Mayweather beat the crap out of Ortiz like Ortiz was done by the 4th round talking about a swelling eye. Mayweather then comes on claiming Victor's 'eyes' were closing over and that he saw blood and finished him off. What a misrepresentation.

The truth of course was that the 4th round was actually Ortiz's best round and rather than him looking tired he still was looking fresh and strong and coming more into the fight. It took a false embrace by FMJ followed by a cheap shot to stop him. Victor wasn't beaten legitimately, Cortez set him up and shame on HBO for backing that Mayweather lie.

Also they better send Larry to do the interviews post-Cotto, they already ruined the face-off with their soft touch, beta grovelling questions from Kellerman.

Bask in it.

Don't post this, next he'll make a thread on how illegal Check Hooks are.

HBO failed to mention how Ortiz was 4-5 clean punches away from a TKO stoppage.

Also that floyd was using his elbow a few dozen times.

And how he had the head over the top rope running for his life which is in violation of the rules.

And also how Cortez never said "Time In" and floyd hit him twice which is not only in violation of the rules but floyd should've lost by DQ

fans like you make me miss that crazy margartio fan viva mexico

The ending of that fight was really, really wack.

But yes I think Floyd was definitely going to KO Ortiz regardless. I just wish I could have gotten my money's worth, these PPV's are too expensive. But I can't get enough of the big fights.
