Was this a cheapshot by Maidana (Ortiz fight)?

    Okay, forget about the outcome of the fight for a second:

    Start of Round 6. Skip to 1:11.

    I think Ortiz wanted to touch gloves but Maidana threw a right in a hurry. Was it unsportsmanlike or Ortiz was being a little too nice?

    I couldn't tell that's what Ortiz was doing, if that's what he was doing, perhaps Maidana didn't notice either.

    If Maidana lands on Amir Khan he's going to kill him.

    Yea it was a cheapshot. Maidana's a badass, but Ortiz was beating his ass and if Ortiz boxed alittle smarter he might of won. He basically didn't have the heart to continue. I think Ortiz can beat him in a rematch. He's ready to beat Maidana.

    You never know when you're fighting a guy in the opposite stance. Extending his jabbing hand at you might mean he's checking or measuring you to set up his hook or cross.

    Touch gloves in the first and last rounds. That's all.

    May be first and last round. But that was the sixth, there is not touching gloves there.

    I don't even think he was trying to touch gloves. Why would he it's the 6th round? I could see a point in the first and 12th round but not the 6th.

    I hate seeing fighters being overly nice to each other anyway. I love a fight when both fighters have a clear disdain towards each other. Makes the fight much more personal.

    i thought Maidana did a lot of dirty tactics in that fight, maybe he was in beast mode after getting put down twice and wasn't thinking.
