He did, like 10 seconds before that. Try watching the actual fight. Don't get your info from slo mo gifs with no sound.
Some of you guys here are going to have to really learn how the fights are to be instructed by the ref. Cortez called time took a point.... Ortiz went to apologize for the intentional foul, at one point Cortez did say lets go.... However the ref is only to give three instructions Stop Break Box The time keeper never heard Box, Lets go is not a command that is given to instruct the fighters and the time keeper to fight on.. Which is exactly why Cortez said hold on, looked at the time keeper while Ortiz is showing sportsmanship and apologizing, the time keeper never started the clock when Floyd hit him because he never heard the official say Box nor did he say TIME IN....
Well the Cortez was in the wrong then. Because a Ref has to make sure the time has started before the action is resumed. Not the other way around It's "Time In!" then the ref signals its "BOX!" That's how Cortez has done it in the past, so why now its "Let's go" then asking the Time keeper "Are you ready?" ?
Actually Bazooka, it's... The point is taken away The fighter are brought to the center with ref between them The ref say "time in" while still between them Then, while still between them, signals and yells "Box!", then moves out keeping an eye on the action.
PBF kept telling Ortiz that if he made any mistakes he would have to pay for them,oops!!!! Seriously Bro know whatta i mean.

Floyd was shaking his head cause he knew it was becoming a tougher fight. The whole world knows ortiz was holding his own. Floyd wanted a way out and stopped the action and called his buddy Cortez over. Rest is history. A great fighter needs to win like that vs a tree ? Imagine Leonard, Hagler, Hearns doing some **** like that. Doubt it.
Good post. It's not like Floyd hadn't shown in the past if you slip or try to talk to him, tap hands, whatever...he'll bust you in the ****in' mouth for it. I like that ****! They have no excuse to not have known to protect your self at all times against Floyd. Floyd's old school, he knows EVERY move in the book and he will use them.
:nono Looks like a cheap shot to me, Floyd got a free punch, Ortiz is a ****ing idiot for that what was he thinking,..
