Yup, after seeing it through another time I must conclude that the "weirdness" of tonight is exclusively caused by Ortiz during and after the fight. - "I'm gonna headbutt you like mad" - "Sorry bro !" - kiss - "Sorry !" - touch gloves - "Sorry again huh !" - hugs - "Didn't mean that" - Tries to hug again - Then he looks at the ref like he wants to say sorry to him too - Gets punched in the face, no reaction - Gets knocked out - "Nobody is perfect, things happen" atsch
Bizarre is as far as I'd go as what does Ortiz gain by losing in that fashion? He wasn't paying attention and gets clocked 2x before getting dropped if anything besides saving face all the smiling from Victor was because he probably felt embarrassed about how he lost. I mean what a fool, he had his hands down right in front of an opponent
People that DON'T think this fight was fixed are morons. The fight was fixed because there was no real loser after tonight. Floyd gets the win and gets payed. He doesn't care about his image and can still get big money fights. Ortiz can say he hasn't really lost to Floyd because of the cheap shot and can be sold to fans in future fights.
No, he can't. :blood He got KTFO. How do you sell that to fans in the future? Whether cheap shots or not, two power punches from Mayweather laid him out and rendered him unable to beat a count. That is the exact opposite of "nobody coming away from this a loser".
Nah, no such fixing happened as the TS opined. It was just Ortiz acting stupid and Mayweather displaying of unsportmanlike behavior. Let's open this thread again when proof of this game being fixed surfaces. Otherwise, instigating something without any proof to support it just creates confusion.
There is no denying this incident wouldn't happen if... 1. Ortiz didn't pull that **** act and protected himself as a professional boxer should. 2. Cortez taking control of the situation. 3. Floyd taking advantage What are the chances of all of these things happening? I can't believe it when I saw it happened. wtf! Floyd ranting on Merchant excused him from having to explain what happened. another wtf! And Ortiz seems to not mind at all and all smile. It all seems bizarre.
**** Floyd and **** Ortiz. Ortiz should not of head butted him and should of been paying attention and Floyd should not of hit him while he was not looking like a coward. I can understand if he was super pissed and did not accept Ortiz's hugs etc... and just wanted to clock him but he was like yeah ok I will accect your opoligy but I will just ko you when you are not looking. Glad I did not end up buying the ppv.
I completely agree with your comments. Anyone who believes last night was a real fight, please go back to watching wrestling.
That's what you get for kissing & hugging inside the ring. :rofl but seriously, that **** looked fake as hell; they could've at least tried a little harder to make it look more convincing. atsch
I just told you the answer. He lost because of 2 cheap shots and not a "real" punch. That's what they'll sell to the fans. You and I might not buy into the bs but the simple minded will. At the end of the day Floyd got paid, got a win and Ortiz can still be marketed to the american-mexican fans he has. + as a bonus they can make a credible rematch.
