So I watched the fight starting with the Awesome Micheal Buffer with his LETS GET READY TO RUMBLE!!!!!!!! the first three rounds were more or less all Floyd, with great footwork and counter striking. Round 4 the Floyd still in control Oritz then comes in with a nice flurry of punches and then Headbutt's Mayweather the ref stops the action. Oritz says sorry to Floyd they meet in the middle of the ring and Oritz says sorry again a second or two after Mayweather lands a left hook followed by a straight right when Ortiz's hands were still down the ref counts Ortiz out and the fights over Mayweather wins another title and remains undefended. It was a crazy ending to such a high profile fight, but who's at fault?

the headbutt |
VITOR ORTIZ : Now all this started with Vitor's headbutt he did say sorry right after and right before he got knocked out. But in the rules there's a rule PROTECT YOURSELF AT ALL TIMES before he got knocked out his hands were down and Mayweather is known to fight dirty.
FLOYD MAYWEATHER : Floyd did sucker punch Ortiz just after he said sorry and he did have his hands down. The ref didn't tell them to fight and he finished the fight. But from Floyd's point of view who have trained 12 weeks everyday at boxing your winning the fight and next you get headbutted and your lip is burst open. Vitor Ortiz said he didn't mean to do that but if you watch the video he's punching Floyd stops for a second and drives his head into Mayweather's jaw. So I can see in the heat of the moment why Floyd done that and like I said PROTECT YOURSELF AT ALL TIMES so tough titty Vitor!!!!
JOE CORTEZ : The referee Joe stopped the action after the headbutt when the two when two the middle joe didn't even tell them to fight and wasn't even looking when Mayweather knocked him out. When Ortiz hit the floor Joe counted him out.....In my view its all this guys fault he did take a point away for the headbutt but its the refs job to control the action he's in charge of the fight and the fighters well being during the 12 round affair. He done his job wrong and in a high profile fight like this he should be sacked just my view
The best bit of the fight was the post interview with massive boo's pointed at Mayweather When HBO's Larry Merchant tried to interview Mayweather after the fight, Mayweather suggested the 80-year-old boxing analyst talk to Ortiz "since you've never given me a fair shake." Mayweather then said to Larry you don't know shit about boxing HBO should fire you, to which Merchant replied, "If I was 50 years younger, I'd kick your ass!!!!!" This was funny as hell to me a 34 year old black man shouting at a 80 year old white guy who can barely talk really I don't how he holds his job guess he's just been there forever. And he says he would woop him if he was 50 years younger to massive cheers from the crowd.
I think this sucker punch win will go down as one of the most conversational ending in boxing history along with the ALI PHANTOM PUNCH AGAINST LISTON AND MIKE TYSON CHEWING OFF A BIT OF HOLYFIELD'S EAR!!!!
After this Floyd Mayweather has enhanced his villainous image setting up the biggest fight ever against Manny Pacquiao...Think about the world already wanted to see it it's the only fight that matches those glory days of boxing. The villan with the money burning ego vs the humble man who gives most of his money to his home country of the philippines. It would be ppv gold But will it ever happen I hope so it has to. If these guys were MMA fighters they would have already fought like 3 times by now cause in mma the fighter want to fight the best, But boxing there's all the money and corruption I think Manny would fight Floyd in a heartbeat but Floyd's stalling for whatever reason. You can't call yourself the best when there another guy right there beating all the top guys next to you and you haven't fought DO IT FOR THE FANS AND YOUR DIEING SPORT PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!
