Nah, Floyd Mayweather is finished. Brocktonblockbust said so in the other thread. ;D
[Edit] WTF? Just when I said this, he edited that thread title to include '(not)'. That sneaky devil ........
all i can say is GO ORTIZ!!!!
gayweather needs to be ko'ed brutally. and since he is scared to death of fighting manny, maybe this tough young gun in Ortiz, can do it. let's hope.
So if it's for real, Mayweather continues ducking Pacquiao, and continues his gutless cherry picking, fuck him.Quote:

I don't see the point in this fight at all other than to make a little bit of pocket change.
The ONLY rational behind it is some sort of tune up fight to see if he still has 'it'.
He's been out the ring for over 18 months I think, so at least he has that excuse for not being in a competetive fight.
ALSO this fight is only going to amplify accusations from pactards etc that he is 'scared' of pacroid.
Really I don't know why he'd go ahead with this fight. Might as well stay retired.
Nobody from the Y2k era can beat Floyd.. Maybe a prime Forrest but that's about it.
He deserves all the credit once he steps inside the ring with this true young lion in Victor Ortiz. I can't believe some of ya arent happy with this matchup.
Floyd is going to rip Ortiz a new asshole and here's why. Besides the fact that he's few notches above him, FLoyd fights souhtpaws aggressive. He totally switches up his style when up against these southpaw opponents and he's going to walk Ortiz down and punish him. He should fight Martinez after and retire as a true great. Beating martinez means just as much to the eyes of true boxing fans and he should retire after that.
If he beats Ortiz and MArtinez, he'd be a top 20 ATG for me..
if this fight isn't going to be a tune-up for a possible pacquiao or martinez fight then i'm not interested. i've got a feeling after he beats ortiz he'll just go away for another long vacation.
I agree, that is what's going to happen and because I already know the outcome is why I can't look forward to it.Quote:

At least Floyd is getting back in the ring. People were saying Ortiz would be a good fight for Manny Pac aside from Floyd, so this should be ok for Floyd to fight him, i'am hopping that it is only a warm up for Pac man tho as Ortiz is also a southpaw.
Mayweather slipping in the backdoor here to grab yet another meaningless trinket from a gutsy guy who prior to exposing a frozen Berto was thought to then have little chance, no chin and even less desire for the ring. As long as he fights, good, but his timing and selection need perspective. I think he knocks Ortiz out when he wants, how he wants and if he wants. Ortiz has earned a big fight he did himself proud and proved the naysayers wrong.. Good luck. He'll need it.
I think it's a good fight, Ortiz deserves the big payday. I think after this fight Floyd goes on another long vacation. I'm not a PBF hater by no means but i do hope Ortiz KO's him, i just happen to like Ortiz better than i like Floyd.
Bullshit. You sound like your making advance excuse.Quote:

What part of 'there is no point in this fight he should stay retired' don't you get?
This fight is not a dangerous one for floyd at all. You're delusional if you think it is.
If this fight goes ahead I don't give ortiz a snowball in hell's chance.
Pac beat marquez 2 times already..why didnt he fight ortiz? Bob arum is steering him away from young hungry fighters. Look on google the amount of corruption bob arum has been done for, they know and he knows floyd will pick him apart. Real boxing fans know the deal. Top rank fighter james toney done for steroids, margacheato, the list goes on.
