    Ortiz has some similarity to Pacquiao as they have about the same punching power and both being southpaws.
    So did Floyd take on Ortiz to see if he could take out Ortiz that he could possibly win over Pacquiao and when he found trouble against Ortiz even if youre not willing to accept that Ortiz was getting the better of Floyd he did get some good punches in and floyd didnt seem to enjoy himself in there and when Ortiz landed.
    He might have won even if he didnt throw those shots at Ortiz when he was apologizing to him and KOd him.
    He might have realized that if he got some trouble with Ortiz he will get even bigger trouble with Pacquiao as he is faster than Ortiz.

    Thoughts on this?

    What trouble are you talking about? The better of PBF? He was getting outclassed and got frustrated and that is why he threw that malicious headbutt. Re-watching it again, I did see other headbutts from Ortiz. How are you getting the better if your not connecting? As far as choosing him due to the Pac simularities, I can believe that.
