Floyd's KO of Ortiz: KO Of The Year?

This knock out was part blooper, part amazing. You can put it on one of those shows where they show crazy events happening in sports. Such as when a goalie 'A' kicks a scoring goal and goalie 'B' was not protecting the goal like he should have been. Or when there is multiple fumble in America football and the players think the play is over but one guy scoops up the ball scores and touch down. It's also part blooper as Ortiz was just being Dumb coming to hug a fighter that he just headbutt, mind you after the ref says "lets go" and they touch gloves.

But what makes it not Knock out of the year is that the goalie who kicks the field goal and scores is not better than say a systematic break down of the teams weakness to get a goalie out of place for the score. Or the America Football running back who breaks a couple tackles, jukes a few dudes and scores a touchdown.

No, it is not KO of the Year because, in my opinion, KO of the Year happens at a moment of action. For example, Donaire vs. Montiel, Ramos vs. Shimoda, or Bute vs. Mendy. Being that Mayweather hit him with two punches at a moment where Ortiz was not doing anything to make it "a moment of action," plus the circumstances of heavy fouling by Ortiz and the point deduction right before the unanswered combo, I would not vote it as KO of the Year.

In terms of pleasing to watch and the whole "OH ****!" factor which some people look for in KO of the Year, then yes, under that rubric it does qualify.

Does this satisfy you? Or are you "going to duck my response" too?

 

I will quote myself here.

There are mistakes like o i forgot 2nd 'I' in definitely.
Then there are Stupid mistakes like spelling definitely: Defintinly.
Ortiz did the latter.

 

it's not ko of the year because mayweather took advantage of a hands down stupid ortiz. two free shots do not qualify to be even considered close to being a candidate. and no, do not compare it to sergio's ko of williams or donarie's ko of montiel. that's an idiotic comment and an insult to those who did theirs on a fair account.

if you want controversy alone and not fair ko's go watch 24/7 all day or soap opera ffs.

 

The sport isn't a joke to have a laughable KO like that as KO of the year.

 

As a candidate most definitely it's worth being in the mix and being mentioned and if it were in there with say Canelo vs Gomez as its only comp. then i would go with this as KO of the year.

 

"A moment where both fighters were not throwing punches or looking to throw punches."

Example: The Nate Cambpell embarrassing loss. That was a moment of non-action. The fight was not paused, just a moment of non-action.

Just like Mayweather/Ortiz, the fight was not paused, just a moment of non-action. There are many moments of non-action through the course of every round in every fight.

What do you say to this? Or is the answer too good, again?

 

he siad "lets go" box on.. it was legit, and they had touched gloves 3 times prior to this

 

A sucker punch.
