Mayweather / Ortiz fight & controversy

[Brandon]

Did any of you catch the fight or at least see the knockout and post fight interview?

Was that a cheap shot?

What did you think?

I'll sound off when we have some replies on this one.

To be honest my heads still spinning from all the work I've done the last 72 hours but I've read the headlines...WTF really went down here? Crazy...boxing is becoming more comedy than an event now

Ortiz intentionally headbutted Mayweather when he had him in the corner. By visibly, I mean he took a step back like a bull and charged head first into Mayweather's head. Ref broke it up, deducted a point and when they went to touch gloves, Ortiz wanted to hug and apologize a thousand times and hold hands. Mayweather 2 shotted him to the mat for KO as they finished their glove touching. Lots are calling it a cheap shot, but 1.) If you headbutt someone INTENTIONALLY expect retaliation, it always happens, 2.) Like Mayweather said....it's boxing...it's defend yourself at all times

I agree with Brandon. Putting the headbutt aside, Mayweather didn't hit Ortiz until the ref motioned for them to continue, and Ortiz was an idiot for letting his guard down. The better fighter won.
