Cortez?

[edit]

Who is Cortez? I assume by context he/she might be the referee, but it is not fully explained and/or referenced. Thanks.

Joe Cortez DID in fact give the go ahead to resume fighting.

[edit]

There's a recent video on youtube showing that Cortez after deducting a point did in fact motion for the fight to continue and told them "let's go" as well as using the hand signals of pointing to both fighters from the center of the ring and drawing his hands together (motioning for them to come forward) instructing them to continue. Ortiz went to apologize once more but since Cortez had already given the go ahead Mayweather punched him. In the video link below it can be seen from about the 0:40-1:05 mark in the video

"call to the cards"

[edit]
Then Ortiz rammed Mayweather in the face with an intentional headecisionbutt, busting open a cut on the inside and outside of Mayweather's mouth, which, if had landed on the upper eye, would have forced a call to the cards if called unintentional by Cortez, per the rules of the sanctioning body. Referee Joe Cortez immediately called timeout and docked Ortiz a point for the foul.

What does this even mean? This page is literally the only place on the internet that this phrase has been used. Even if this novel turn of phrase has meaning, this is a terrible sentence. The only other edit by User:Bda31175 is a link. Both seem to have survived 2.5 years. Call to the cards (talk) 02:16, 1 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

After a refresher at professional boxing, I see that the fight "goes to the cards," one does not "call to the cards." I am amending, but this sentence is still terrible. Call to the cards (talk) 02:48, 1 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for making that abundantly clear. Bda31175 (talk) 02:55, 11 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
