    I agree with with the whole deal about victor. Ortiz started it all with an unnecessary headbutt and then was extremely naive to think Floyd would hug him afterwards. Floyd showed poor sportsmanship but it was a totally legal shot.

    I disagree on Merchant though. If there is something about the guy is that he asks no nonsense questions and are questions most of us ask ourselves. Hes a straight shooter with everyone and i like that about him. I dont like he takes forever to speak though he sounds mental when he does.

    Merchant himself acknowledged that the statement is probably false, but he put Floyd in his place after he acted like a little brat.

    :patsch How can you play stupid to oversimplify the sitiation to that. And tghat's what most of you idiots are doing, just oversimplofying to as simple, "Protect at all times" sort of thing. Ignoring the ref stopping the action and all. Yeah, ortiz just dropped his guard out of the blue for NO REASON, and therefore Floyd was right to take the opening. That's it huh? :roll:

    Go back tot he lounge. Even when totally off base, at least your in your element. boxing isn't for you.

    You didn't answer the question.

    How can you sucker punch someone when the ref has issued the command to box?

    and how exactly did he do that? by blurting out some more bull****? the only reason it sounded authoritative is because he said it at a pace far quicker than he normally does....he probably rehearsed the line

    Yeah I agree, sure they were legal punches but its just not a good win. I'm not gonna call Floyd dirty but this win is meaningless.

    That's not true u idiot. He never even brought up Pac until he talked to Lampley and Steward minutes later. Why would Pacquiao be the first thing on Floyd's mind after a fight like that and run off on a disrepscetful interview because of him :patsch

    I know what's not cool is spouting off your religious views on every other post.

    DAmned Pimp..
    I am fuken pissed about the fight because the way it did end. That is all...
    Tell me HONESTLY did you not feel after that Knock out like "wtf, is this fight over. wtf just happened?" or something like that. I would loved to see Floyd dismantle Ortiz had the Fight continue and that whole bizarre thing did not happen...

    i am not complaining about floyd doing anything illegal(throwing legal Ko punch which was sucker punch..but a legal punch is a legal punch) or s**** like that but just pissed because possible great Fight ended so early in such a weird fashion..

    I dont know what to say about the Fight but Ortiz is a damn Idiot and Floyd got under rated KO Power:yep
