    Cheapshot or not? Just vote whether you agree with Floyds action or not. Just to see a simple view of the forums consensus without having to trawl thru a million posts and threads.

    Nope, Ortiz's Headbutt was a cheap shot, everybody just hates Mayweather. But if this was the other way around, everyone would be rejoicing and saying Floyd deserved it.

    Yeh it a cheap shot. But floyd did the same thing in the mosley fight.

    There a reason the ref says protect yourselves at all time.

    The ring is not the place to be apologizing and hugging. Protect yourself at all times.

    "Was Floyd right or wrong to retaliate with his KO to a defenseless Ortiz?"

    I don't get how Ortiz was defenseless. Cortez said 'lets go' along with moving his hands signalling the two fighters to resume fighting, the fighers approached each other to start fighting again, Cortez looked at the timekeeper, Ortiz started apologizing again, and as soon as they separated Mayweather started fighting again. I don't see where Mayweather has fault in all this. Ortiz has nobody to blame but himself for: Head-butting intentionally, feeling guilty as **** and apologizing 50 times, and not protecting himself.

    no such thing as a cheapshot when the ref says "fight", in a fight, by its very nature, people get punched in the face
