He needs to smother PBF so much that he can't throw his left and only able to throw his right across his body. We all know that PBF is going to tuck his chin behind his shoulder and give his opponent his left side. Problem is, Ortiz square himself up when throwing power shot when his opponents are against the ropes.Quote:

Yes, I think pressure is the key, but intelligent pressure. I'm not sure Ortiz really knows how to do that for 12 hard rounds though. He typically likes to use movement and have distance and he also falls asleep for rounds which is never good. Hatton's style was ideal IMO and he has become very underrated due to the career blowout, but people need to observe that fight and see that for the first half at least you can be very competitive with Floyd. You can't afford to get the red mist though as Floyd is too relaxed and calm and will take advantage.Quote:

Castillo did so well and we used to say that Hattons swarming pressure could trouble mayweather and it did as you say and yes the point deduction was the turning point in the fight and Hatton unravelled right there and then. I think he felt as though he was fighting 2 blokes that night.Quote:

I see Cortez is refereeing tomorrow. Wanker! :mad:
Ortiz is in big trouble then, Cortez might as well be on Mayweathers Staff for the totally biased nature of his refereeing, (how he and Kenny Bayliss are still working is beyond me)Quote:

Well Cortez was as I predicted his usual neutral attentive unbiased professional expert self and did not hug Mayweathers nuts in any way, and Kenny " Can you believe how camp I am ?" Bayliss was right to let brave Cano carry on fighting despite his useless corner failing to notice their fighters cut was bad enough to threaten his eyesight and future career.Quote:
