After winning on a cheap shot against Victor Ortiz, Floyd Mayweather actually managed to sink lower in the post-fight interview, haranguing HBO’s veteran sportscaster Larry Merchant:
PS:Now that you knocked out Victor Ortiz(or did you? Lol.), stop making excuses about running away from Manny Pacquiao this time. Let Manny finish his fight against Juan Manuel Marquez and you'll get your skinny fat ass kicked. Lol.
