SecondsOut.com - Victor Ortiz has admitted that he was trying to break Floyd Mayweather Jr’s nose during his knockout defeat in Las Vegas last September.

Speaking to RingTV.com, Ortix said: "I was trying to break his nose, 100 percent. Because he nailed me sixteen times with his elbow on my right eye, which made me close my eye."

Ortiz said that despite his attempts to get the referee to reprimand Mayweather referee Joe Cortez just said, "Keep fighting, Victor."

Ortiz added: "He catches me right on my eye. My eye gets closed. So I unleashed a headbutt."
