    nah. Victor wasn't pressing enough and he didn't ****ing jab enough. And of course he forgot that Floyd doesn't wait.

    Onnnn the other hand..Cortez ****ed up. He lost control of the match and wasn't even watching the fighters. He didn't restart the action officially and he still counted out Victor. Strange ending.

    Floyd has lost a noticeable touch of handspeed, but his reflexes are still very good and his ring IQ is still great. He took away Ortiz' right hook early, then the straight left and was picking him apart with the straight right...His left hook didn't have the timing on it though.

    I thought his legs looked better than usual. He was in tip top shape tonight, and I thought his timing and reflexes were all there.

    Nope didn't see it like that. He looked better than ever. Just as fast, but more powerful and every bit as crafty and smart. He won every round and the worst had yet to begin for Ortiz.

    i thought he looked the same as usual the only reason people may think otherwise is now that hes being aggressive maybe with something to prove every so often he gets caught out....but really i was impressed with him

    It's called "setting your feet." Otherwise known as "loading up" or "standing your ground."

    I don't know what you saw. Floyd looked great tonight. Especially for a guy who hasn't boxed in over a year.

    Keith Kizer of the NVSAC said afterwards that Cortez notified the timekeeper, making the left hook and right cross perfectly legal...It was Ortiz that messed up by thinking it was some how illegal after Floyd connected with the left hook by looking at Cortez...
