Default Mayweather vs Ortiz Fair?

So I'm not an avid follower of boxing or any sport for that matter but I happen to catch the fight over the weekend. I've been hearing a bunch of chater on weather(pun intended and misspelling) the punch was fair/legal/stupid/etc. I personally saw it as legal, though cheap, legal. Besides Ortiz should know better than to keep the fists down while the round is still on. I also heard about a possible rematch, kind of interested in seeing that.

What are your on this?

It was absolutely fair! Once you touch gloves, it's game on, you ought to be ready. Boxing101.

To be honest, Ortiz is a great guy, great story great fighter but he doesn't have the level of experience and the expertise of Mayweather. Hate the guy, love the guy, he is a winner as attested by his 42-0 record.

True true, both Pacquiao & Mayweather will probably keep tempting promoters & audience while dragging a possible long awaited fight, generating more and more noise and making tons more muuney in the process => Sounds like good marketing strategy. Either way, I agree that will be an epic match-up.

I agree the knock out was legal but idk man I think when your a great fighter you should have some class and want your opponent at his 100% thats all I dont agree with. Yeah ortiz's head butt was childish but when you compare him to maywheather he's still a rookie maywheather should be more mature than to react to that plus idk I respect him but never liked him he has no class you would have never caught Ali acting that way or any of the other great boxers that has been around they'd never hit a man that has his defense down It just kind of kills it no he HAS to fight pac man oh and btw pickin on old man just has loser written all over it I don't care what the old guy says

But he does know how to keep things interesting with all that sh*t talking. Most people just tune in hoping that he would lose but he's still going and keeps bringing in the $$ for promoters and himself. If you ask me, he is a smart a**hole
