Whiners say that it was a sucker punch because Ortiz was stupidly not protecting himself but it was fair and stupid of Ortiz not Mayweather.

Not gonna argue that the Ortiz headbutt was a cheap shot, but the Mayweather sucker punch was just as cheap. I blame Joe Cortez for a terrible reffing job. The guy should really retire because he doesn't know what's going in the ring at all.
The Larry Merchant interview at the end was entertaining though. Even the usual pro Emanuel Steward was speechless of Mayweather's cheapshot. At the end of the day though, it was legal, but very dirty. It won't endear Mayweather to any new fans, that's for sure.
