Now, the key word there is <em>intentional<\/em>, so perhaps Mayweather was right to knock him out when he had the chance.\u00a0 Via The Root:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>Some believe the boxing champion sucker punched Ortiz while others feel  that Ortiz got what he deserved after a hard headbutt given to  Mayweather, Jr. earlier in the round that cost Ortiz one point. Some  have even called for a rematch, which is not going to happen.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>We tried to scoop up a video so you could be the judge, but it looks like HBO has gotten them all taken down for copyright violations. It&#8217;s all hearsay now, but we can at least be sure that Ortiz got schooled. Up next for Mayweather? The Root hopes for Manny Pacquiao. Now THAT is something I&#8217;d pay to see.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>Did you see the fight? What did you think?
