One thing I know is that the ref was asleep. All his attention should have been focused on the boxers. Especially after attempting to pull them apart and resuming the bout.

Usually the bout starts again with the fighters fully separated by some distance and then the ref gives the signal to start boxing again with the fighters stepping into one another again.

Wow! The referee was asleep! Didn’t the ref know there was a boxing match going on?

That was a cheap shot and that's all there is to it.

Referee was asleep, and didn’t do his job.

But they were put in the middle, they had their gloves touch, and then Ortiz leaned into mayweather and made head-to-head contact. That looks like “starting boxing again” to me, although apparently Ortiz only meant to kiss Mayweather on the cheek.

But if the other boxer steps in and puts his head into my head, I’m going to take that as a sign we’ve started boxing, and slug him. Because he certainly isn’t allowed to do that during a break. Ortiz initiated contact, and it’s his own dumb fault.
