Classic example of Old Lion vs Young Lion

[brocktonblockbust]

Walcott vs Marciano comes to mind. Could this be the time when Floyd simply crosses over into that vague, undemarcated zone characterized by imperceptible decreases in hand-eye coordination, timing, and execution? We have seen it all too many times, and we were always amazed by it, WHEN THE OLD LION'S TIME IS ECLIPSING, and the New Young lion was just a little too energetic and determined and tireless, to Old Lion's great surprise.

Could this Ortiz fight be just one more of these classic cases of the Changing of the Guard?
Time will tell, just a few days now.......this will be interesting indeed.

No, it's not. It's going to be a slaughter. Mayweather will beat Ruiz easily. I wonder if the loss will be so brutal it'll damage Ortiz's career indefinitely.

[brocktonblockbust]

Yeah youre probably right. Did you mean Ortiz and not Ruiz?

Yes, sorry.

[Master]

I hope you are right but highly doubt it. Loved it when Tyson beat Holmes, Norris beat Leonard.

if it was 18 months from now after Ortiz had a few more victories against good competition at 147 then I'd be confident of a changing of the guard. But at this point, I think Mayweather should be able to weather any early storm and outbox Ortiz down the stretch to a UD or late TKO.

Mayweather ain't the slaughtering type

[brocktonblockbust]

damn right. He's the dawdling type. This fight is easy to foresee ending in a UD fr mayweather. or the coward Ortiz may quit like against Maidana.
In any case, no slaughter, thats a fact.

..youre calling Ortiz a coward? A guy who will fight anyone and is fighting the best in the world tomorrow? Yet werent you the guy who wanted to use your 'size advantage' to beat up some koreans?

[brocktonblockbust]

..youre calling Ortiz a coward?

YES.

as far as beating up a smaller korean fighter goes.....Im 47 years old, asswipe. Never fought in my life. That korean fighter is a pro and half my age. So you think that gives me the advantage?
