why is floyd performance against Ortiz before the KO never talked about?

    before the ko he showed a beautiful display of boxing, a combination of offense and defense....he threw combos...moved well and looked great


    the ending was so controversial ppl never talk about what happened before it....i know haters point to the little hook hook shot that didn't phase him and the blocked/rolled flurries that caused 0 damage but i feel like that was one of floyds most underrated performances...he looked excellent

    he was landing those right hands at will...but ortiz did catch him with a short right hook that had floyd reeling. too bad ortiz couldn't follow it up with ****. he missed almost every single shot after that and he threw a **** load. that's why the head butt came. frustration.

    Who cares what happened right before. Was that the fight time you saw Floyd fight or something? :roll:

    But by all means, lets all make a huge fuss over what floyd was doing before the cheap shot. Floyd has NEVER done that before... :tired

    I suggest you go get some new coke bottle eye glasses because Ortiz didn't land a single shot that SHOOK anyone in that entire fight.

    Making what fuss? Just because all you can do is focus on the KO doesn't mean other people should ignore the work that was put in before it. Chill out.

    Being a fan of Floyd has absolutely has nothing do with having the ability to tell the difference between a right hook that lands cleanly and a glancing blow.

    :lol: Chill out? I love it when you rubes read my ****, and STILL don't know the point. Sometimes I wonder if I need to dumb my **** so yous can understand.

    Up until the KO, there was nothing special going on, nothing we haven't seen from floyd before. Maybe it was new to you, as it was yungkid, but there was nothing notable about that fight worth revisiting. In al honesty, the way the fight ended, it might as well never even happened. Was a waste of a night...

    That said, I'll leave you to your circle jerk...

    I was enjoying it. He was being very methodical and showing a few new wrinkles against a southpaw, which he was able to do because Ortiz was right-hand dominant. Ortiz did have his moments though, critics exaggerate them and nuthuggers pretend they were of 0 value.

    Minute for minute, it may be the most exciting fight of Floyds' career.

    I thought he was kicking ass but Victor put in the effort to make it somewhat competitive.

    The ending was just so dramatic and iconic that nobody can ever talk about any other part of the fight without that dominating the conversation.
