Tonight on PPV (I'm going to my next door neighbor, lol)...

Who you picking?
Mayweather is the big favorite of course...but Ortiz is a live opponent...ten years younger...plus he's physically very strong.
My mind says Mayweather...but you know...Ortiz is my boy...so my heart says Ortiz...lol.
Here's the weigh-in...it's always pretty entertaining...

It should be a fun match to watch Hector! I'll pick Ortiz just to go with the underdog.

My friend just invited me over to watch this fight. Will be a good one. Its so tough to get past that Mayweather style defense, so i'm saying Mayweather by decison. Yet Ortiz is no Shane Mosley or Dela hoya ( both were past their prime ) when they gave mayweather trouble. Ortiz is also a southpaw which seems to bother Floyd. And Ortiz is a hi energy young tough kid. Ortiz has a chance but like most said Mayweather is likely going to take this.
I just hope this makes the Pacioau fight happen already. For the fans and money they both should take the exact drug test and make the fight happen before they are aged.

Mayweather knocks him out in the 4th round with a controversial punch

Sep 17, '11, 11:24 PM
Ortiz was apologizing to Floyd for a headbutt. They were both hugging as a gesture of good faith when before Ortiz finished hugging Floyd. Floyd decked him with a two shot combo to the face and knocked Ortiz out.
Larry Merchant was furious...he went at it with Mayweather...and told him...
"I wish I was 50 years younger I would kick your ***!"
Otriz didn't need to resort to that intentional headbutt (he was losing but still in the fight)...but what Mayweather did was terrible...right after the apology hug...he clocks him and knocks him out...I know it's protect yourself at all times...but what the hell happened to sportsmanship...damn.
I'm blaming both fighters...Ortiz for launching headbutts...and Mayweather for clocking him after an apology hug.
Another black eye for boxing.
Please Manny...come to the rescue...I beg you.

Stupid move on both fighters. Ortiz was just starting to get in some shots, had Floyd on the ropes, why the headbutt? Then why so many apologies. Then yeah Mayweather just said whatever and went for the KO right off the hug! Crazy ending. I laughed when Merchant came right back at Floyd.

imo Mayweather never hugged him or touched gloves, his hands were up and and he was ****ed by such a cheap shot. He let him have it. lol

Boxing sucks now! Even if Pac would fight Mayweather I would bet it would also be a chetty fight then go to a second fight card......to create more hype. Pac would be the better man no doubt would love for him to tear Mayweather a new arse! Nowa days it all hype and no go! :silly:

put on the sound at like 3:07 in on this video you could clearly hear Ref- Joe Cortez say lets go, meaning lets fight. The fighters touch gloves. The way I see it now is fight was back on, this isnt dancing. Was it cheap? Maybe yeah, but so was the headbutt- instant karma

no doubt about it, that headbutt was dirty as hell, funny thing is that I was watching the HBO hype thing and you see his family talking about what a cheater Mayweather is and how dirty he is for throwing elbows and then this idiot does that

Didnt care for that cheap ending. For my $59.99 that I paid to watch the fight that was no way to loose or win a title fight.

Cheap headbutt!!!
Even cheaper set up knock-out...LOL
I like how mayweather held up ortiz's chin before he tagged it...LOL
In the end Mayweather like I called,glad I never paid $60 to see that...LOL

I thought Ortiz was coming on. I don't know why he thought he needed to do the headbutt. It reminded me of Golota/Bowe, just a stupid move. The fight was just getting interesting, but I don't think Floyd did anything illegal though. I'd love to see a rematch - when has Floyd ever taken so many shots in a round?

Floyd is definitely slowing down...you can't be prime forever...all the greats...except for Rocky Marciano...have eventually lost.
Who was salivating last night?
Manny Pacquiao.
That will be a pick 'em fight in my opinion.
There's also talks of Mayweather going up to middleweight and fight the undisputed middleweight champion...Argentina's Sergio Martinez (fighter of the year in 2010, and current 2nd best p4p after Pacquiao)...that my friends...would be pure suicide for Mayweather...

That was a very tough 6' 2" Paul Williams he knocked out...KO of the year.
Pacquiao was offered to fight Martinez...Manny said..."He's too big for me"... :smiley1:
Go ahead Mayweather...get brave...fight Martinez...
:biggrin: :biggrin: :biggrin:

you're asking for an unrealistic fight, why doesn't that Martinez dude move up and fight a heavy weight? ;) it's just not fair
Manny Mayweather's what i wanna see...and i'd still root for Mayweather :grin:

Welterweight to middleweight...
It's only a 13-pound difference...no big deal for Mayweather...right? :biggrin:
But we both agree though...Floyd and Manny...
:yes: :biggrin:

Can you imagine if it were Ortiz who sucker-punched Mayweather?! There would've been a riot, with Mayweather having excuses coming out of his ears.
I'd love to see 80 year old Larry Merchant suckerpunch that punk.
I'm still hoping Mayweather grows a set and fights Manny.
Joe Cortez USED to be my favorite ref.....not anymore. Hope he spends his payoff well.
