Floyd Mayweather Remains Undefeated

Floyd Mayweather remained undefeated last night by knocking out Victor Ortiz in the 4th round. The bout was controversial because of the fact that Ortiz had his guards down when Mayweather tagged him with the blows that lead to the TKO. Many feel that Ortiz got what he deserved for purposely head butting Mayweather prior to the knockout. The #1 rule in boxing is to protect yourself at all times and Ortiz had to kearn that the hard way.

Mayweather moves on with a record of 42 and 0 losses. It remains to be seen whether or not there will be a rematch.
