Mayweather vs Ortiz - Calls for revenge Oscar De La Hoya

,

After a rather controversial end to a high-profile fight, there are some calls for a rematch between Floyd Mayweather and Victor Ortiz.


Oscar De La Hoya, the former champion and current boxing promoter, believes that Mayweather did not win the right after a fast start followed by a knock out Ortiz intentional headbutt.
"I will fight for Ortiz to have a rematch," said De La Hoya, on Twitter "I feel Mayweather Ortiz looked good and looked good."


De La Hoya said Ortiz deserved header having two points deducted instead of one, but also describes Mayweather reprisals as "dirty tricks".


"I made some mistakes tonight and I apologize to the public, but I definitely want a rematch," said Ortiz after the fight.


After only three full rounds, Mayweather appeared to be winning the battle of two rounds to one. CompuBox statistics showed Mayweather was dominating the fight.


Many say the header Ortiz pitching for sportsmanship, and Ortiz got what he deserved. The arbitrators say boxers "protected at all times" and there was no reason for Ortiz at least not recover or increase his fists.

e La Hoya is not the only one crying for a rematch, since many feel that the result was unsatisfactory, Mayweather did not win the fight convincingly.


The question is: Is Ortiz a grant Mayweather?


Most fans want a megabout between Mayweather and Manny Pacquiao. Both fighters are considered among the best pound for pound fighters in the sport.


Pacquiao Mayweather has given a deadline for a decision in late 2012. The Filipino star also has a big fight in November when faced with Juan Manuel Marquez a third time. Marquez is not far behind, and in the last two fights that hurt Pacquiao.


A Mayweather - Ortiz rematch could adversely affect the ability of Mayweather - Pacquiao fight will be worth $ 100 million.


For a long time promoter Bob Arum said the fight was no chance that it will fall, as both fighters have come and gone in the issue of drug testing enchancing performance.


On the other hand, Mayweather does not want to give Ortiz another rematch, because it can get a prize if he fights Amir Khan. The British fighter quickly is a big draw in Europe, which means that Mayweather can stand to make a lot of money in the fight.
