    get it right please mayweather showed what a street punk coward he basically is by cold ****ing victor Ortiz. he then has the gall to call it a ko win. picture it the other way around, had Ortiz cold****ed Floyd he'd have got dq'd

    First time i saw Pacquiao i wasn't a fan of his skills ( ugly). But he was competitive and even battered some champions which surprise me...

    Trinidad won, u know, get over it!! I don't know which journalists were saying Trinidad was the better boxer but I'm almost sure they had Oscar as the betting fave so I don't kno what ur talking about!?!:huh

    Thought more of Carson Jones especially seeing him on the Mayweather/Ortiz undercard. He destroyed Ouali. I underrated his toughness.

    No he wouldn't have.

    Floyd would be called the dumbest fighter ever and Ortiz would be applauded universally for going for the kill and showing smarts to turn the odds and beat the unbeatable.

    but time was called in ?.... the ref called it in... the ref decides when to call time in.. and he did...

    he had been trying to put in sneaky headbuts from round 1 and got ****ing desperate in round 4 when floyd started to really find his target and unloaded combinations on him (floyd barely throws combos anymore so that tells you alot)

    time was in this means fight time not hugging and kissing time.. listen if you want to pay 50 odd dollars for a ppv to see 2 topless guys hugging and kissing thats your prerogative but everyone else paid and came to watch a boxing match

    oh and btw leading up to the fight ortiz kept bringing up floyd and his illegal elbow techniques then before the fight warned to ref to please look out for them. from round 1 to the ko i seen NOT 1 dirty elbow from floyd...

    Ttime is known to make **** up as he goes along.
    At no point in time did the consensus have Trinidad labeled as the better boxer.
    Going into the fight Trinidad was considered the more natural punching welterweight. DLH considered more the boxer/puncher with more versatility than Trinidad.
