    I think if it was the Bradley or Holyfield type headbutt the scenario might have been different..but the Ortiz headbutt was just soooo blatant.
    Ortiz crumbled mentally as usual, the punch was justified but it would have been better had Floyd just punished him for a few more rounds rather than giving him an easy out.

      They were as bad as each other with what they did. Floyd's cheap shot wasn't as bad because it was a punch, but still cheap nonetheless.

      My biggest gripe with the whole situation was that incompetent f**ker Cortez though, he didn't properly signal for the fighters to continue fighting, instead decided to gaze out of the ring like the time keeper had a huge rack, before looking round in astonishment to find that Mayweather had already flattened Ortiz. So glad the prick has finally retired.

        im still shocked ortiz didn't get up basically he quit again,i don't think the punches were as hard as he led on. cortez also ****ed up the situation by not breaking them up properly.

          I never thought Ortiz was knocked out, his ***** ass chose to stay down. He wanted out, that was a blatant headbutt.

            I was so happy that Floyd didn't let Victor get away with that dirty ****. My only disappointment was that Victor CHOSE not to get up after getting what he deserved.

            For those who were mad that they paid for it, I'm not sure what you guys expect. The four rounds, the foul and retaliation, and the post fight were thoroughly entertaining and i loved EVERY bit of it...and at the end of the day that is what you pay for. Hell I would have given Floyd another 60 bucks if i could have.

              Floyd should have tried to beat him up badly for the remaining rounds. That's what Ali did with Ernie Terrell. Floyd took the easy way out and took advantage of the naive Ortiz.

              ..... but that is nothing new for Floyd. He has tried to KO other fighters by sucker punching the unexpected opponent.

                Would have rather seen Ortiz punished by the ref, rather than Mayweather pulling that stunt.

                Both as bad as eachother

                  Second that, but Ortiz comes apart like that. He admitted to trying to break Floyd's nose.

                    The ref's job is to warn or take points, he should have said something to the ref between rounds or started elbowing back.
