    I'm assuming you're talking about the Mayweather fight.

    He was getting pissed because Mayweather was excessively using his elbows and forearms. You don't think that's dirty? He headbutted Mayweather, because Mayweather wouldn't let go of his arms. :deal THEN Mayweather SUCKER PUNCHED Ortiz. You don't think that's dirty too?

    He lost the last 2 rounds big and was getting battered, the ref was about to stop it anyway or he was getting knocked out. Its clear as day if you re watch the fight. he wasn't out boxing Maidana at all especially in the last 3 rounds. It was mostly all maidana. Ortrees was only ahead so much because of a 10-7 round in round 2. It was 3-2 in rounds after 5.

    Ortiz was shocked that maidana was still coming at him after the two KD's, he thought Maidana would stay down and as you say Ortrees is mentally weak so that effected him big time.

    I'd say it was his high KO percentage, but like many KO artist who step up their level of competition they sometimes get exposed. In Ortiz's case he's displayed signs of someone who might be mentally fragile, but his style was exciting, so he was given passes.

    Yeah, if you're the ref you would stop a competitive fight.

    Like I said no heart.

    Let's just say you and I have different point of view of the fight. You think Ortiz was losing. I think he's ahead. I personally don't give a **** if you think he was losing.

    May-weather Jr. has also been scrubbing for some easy opposition to face and make his millions. Fighting Ortiz was something Floyd should have been embarrassed in doing. No, not because Ortiz is a bad fighter, but because Mayweather Jr. is in an entirely different league."


    The truth about Ortiz and Mayweather from the legendary Big George !
