Some call it a cheap shot, but I call it a knockout. The fight between Floyd Mayweather and Victor Ortiz ended after four rounds on Saturday night with the title going to Mayweather after a gut wrenching left-right combination knockout. Moments before the knockout, Ortiz had Mayweather backed against the ropes and Ortiz landed a head-butt into Mayweather's chin. The true boxer in Mayweather shook it off and finished the fight victorious and a few millions richer.

At the replay, Ortiz appeared to be looking at the referee as Mayweather landed the punch; however I will repeat what everyone already knows: always protect yourself. If he wasn't ready to fight again, he should not have tapped gloves. Maybe Ortiz should have saved the apologizing for after the fight.
Mayweather's record remains at 42-0, but he did say he would be happy for a rematch with Ortiz if asked. Even if it was only four rounds, it was the fight to see. Congrats Mayweather!
