Mayweather vs Ortiz Result: Mayweather wins vs Ortiz via TKO in 4th Round

Floyd Mayweather Jr remains undefeated when he won vs Victor Ortiz during Saturday night's WBC welterweight title fight at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada (Sunday morning, Manila time).

The "Mayweather vs Ortiz" bout was no ordinary fight (but not surprising) as 34-year-old Floyd Mayweather Jr knocked out Victor Ortiz, who's 10 years younger, during the 4th round of the fight (4th Round TKO).

It was Mayweather's grand comeback on the ring after 16 months of rest (and just watching Manny Pacquiao's fights?)

Floyd Mayweather Jr now has 42 wins (26 are knockout wins) and 0 losses while Victor Ortiz's new record is 29 wins, 3 losses and 2 draws with 22 knockouts.

Watch a Youtube video of how Floyd Mayweather Jr knocked out Victor Ortiz in 4th Round:

It was an amazing knockout but many were not impressed with how Mayweather did it, especially that he did it immediately after he and Ortiz emerged from a break, and the latter wasn't ready yet to resume the fight.

Mayweather reportedly got booed by the audience after he knocked out Ortiz.

During the post-fight interview, Mayweather also had an argument with the 80-year-old commentator Larry Merchant. Watch!
