As we’re celebrating my cousin’s 40th birthday, we had the opportunity to watch the Ortiz vs. Mayweather fight. I typically would not sit down and watch a fight, as I do not understand why two people hitting each other is a sport….and will never understand why the general public loves it so much (well I do…but that’s a whole other blog). So the athlete in me kicks in….I choose my side…..and roll with it! The fight begins, and I thoroughly enjoy watching my girl(non-athlete) cousins get so excited and scream out things that don’t even make sense….and say f%^& it and just drink their Miller Lite….my grandmother would be so proud. While the birthday girl….let me set this up……is a hippie from SF….dressed up like Audrey Hepburn…is a hardcore advocate for NO on prop 8….walking around with champagne asking when this stupid fight is going to be over because it should NOT be on at a birthday party!!! Of course if any of you know my family, there is a pool going for what round the fight will end…..and everyone is screaming their numbers out. So round 4 approaches and my cousin yells out, “this is my round!!!” Well this may be the amateur boxing critic in me…..or the just the good old Vanessa $&^t talking….and I ever so gently yelled back…..”Yeah right….it’s going 12 rounds!!!!!!!!!!!!!” Ahhahahahahahahah Well for many of you that witnessed this fight….you know what happened next.
Round 4……Ortiz what the hell were you thinking???!!!!!!!!!! You claim you are a clean fighter….and how dirty Mayweather is……what the hell were you thinking??? You just completely opened the door to what the fans of boxing did NOT want. This was the most pathetic showcase of classlessness on all sides. Ortiz, I don’t know where you had been training, but head butts are not allowed in boxing. No one will ever know what really happened in that ring….but all we know is Ortiz was trying to apologize…the ref wasn’t looking….and BAM…..left hook…..BAM…..right…and goodnight folks!!!!!!!!! Sucker punch anyone?????? In my opinion, Mayweather is a classless…..ungrateful…..pathetic….mouthy…..jerk!!! I hope your parents were really proud of what you did. You looked like a complete idiot with 50 cent and your entourage in your corner. You have the nerve to attack an 80 year old announcer, Larry Merchant, who in actuality knows more about Boxing than your ignorant mind will ever comprehend! I agree with most critics, the interview was better than the fight. If I wanted to see two guys fight dirty and one get sucker punched….I can visit any local bar. When Merchant came back with …”If I was 50 years younger…I’d kick you’re a$$!”...I died!!! Yes!!!!!!!….Mayweather: 0 Merchant: 1……
What really gets me…..Mayweather made approximately $25 million on this fight! HUH?? We have families in this country that cannot provide for each other…..and this ignorant a$$hole is making that kind of money……I just don’t get it. WE just commemorated 10 years from the day our country was torn apart by terrorism….and we are rewarding morons like this. Instead of him reflecting on what he has and what he has been given….he’s screaming in the face of an 80 year old announcer who is doing his job and asking the questions the audience wants answers to! He doesn’t give you a fair shake Floyd….simply because you don’t deserve one.
Let me give you some advice Floyd “money” Mayweather…..Instead of going out that night to Moon and blowing what I’m sure was thousands of dollars…..maybe you should take a step back…re-watch your interview and reflect on what type of person you are! Maybe….start a charity…give back…..take care of some families who need to eat…..learn some manners…..get some sportsmanship….Be an example……shut your mouth and for God’s sake go to CHURCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This fight was a pathetic joke of a sport….there is nothing you should be proud of!
