If Mayweather is even near his normal level he will beat Ortiz. I've watched several times carefully the last fights of Ortiz and found him better at all than DLH. Mayweather has weapons to unarmed Ortiz. One of the main reason why Ortiz obviously will lost that fight is his slowness, formal boxing and unability to defend himself. He's like overrated and hyped Fernando Vargas.

I would love to see how Floyd would deal with a bad cut.
Don't know anything about Morales opponent so wont pretend i know what i'm talking about but Morales could suddenly get old, although he had a good performance against Maidana he could be ripe for the taking any day now. Still an absolute living legend though. ;D
Ortiz definitely has a chance, there's been bigger upsets. (i think :confused:)
Just have a feeling that Ortiz may be a bit starstruck/occasion might get to him/could be too respectful and wont fight his fight or even get started but it's unlikely.
You mean Morales hasn't gotten old yet?Quote:

Mayweather will batter Ortiz. Don't even need to say anything else on this matter I don't think.
I can see Mayweather getting caught and maybe hitting the canvas. But Mayweather has heart and a ego. If Mayweather don't get RJJ(Tarver 2), he will adjust and still beat Ortiz. Mayweather recent fights, he been barely slipping punches. He actually been getting touch a lot. But Ortiz don't jab or even pretend to jab as a blinder. I can't see Ortiz winning.
Mayweather is the Silvia of boxing. Even if Ortiz is beating Mayweather the first half of the fight, he is still skilled enough to pull off the win in the final rounds of the fight.
that's why Morales was being considered a 6-1 underdog going into the Maidana fight, and given his weak performances against mediocre opposition like Alfaro, Limond, and Lorenzo, no one expected him to put on that great of a performance let alone with one eyeQuote:

yes, yes i was, but that's beside the point, he still picked gloves that benefited him over his opponentQuote:
