I'd like to watch the complete 24/7 series first.

I think Vic has a shot too, for some of the reasons in the OP. Nobody expects Ortiz to win, but I believe Floyd will have problems with him, and this will be a competitive fight.

Ortiz is going to give a good effort, if the odds are really big in Mayweather's favor, I may bet a little something on Surfer Vic.

Hope you are right, good luck.
IF he catches Floyd early in a round, he may be able to do it :-\, but he sure isnt going to out point him.

Vic is young, strong and wreckless coming off his biggest win and though he may be puffed up a bit mentally, I really think he thinks he can hurt mayweather. Unlike Mosley and Marquez vs Floyd...I don't think he has a clue as to what his own limitations are. That can make for some fun. Not buying Floyds jabber about standing in but I do think he recognizes the need to dispatch Ortiz asap rather than coast and leave wounded guys in the field. I felt Ortiz would batter and get Berto but this is a whole different animal. It'll be fun while it last but I see Mayweather via tko midway.

I can see Floyd winning a decision, but by a KO/TKO? I can't see that at all, Mayweather isn't a big puncher.

Do you think he didn't stop Mosley and Marquez because he wasn't a big puncher, or because he settled into role and had total command? Thats sort of what I'm saying...Ortiz will force him to commit. And to me he does not have the defense-guile of JMM nor the chin of Mosley to withstand.

Btw if its an upset...kegs on me and I will get arrested twice that night.
