    Floyd was buzzed by Shane early, he lost a few of the first few rounds against Zab and he lost a couple of the first to Hatton. No way he stops Ortiz before round 5. It takes Floyd a few rounds to deconstruct his opponent. I like the bet +398 of FLoyd winning in rounds 7-12 or Floyd by DQ/TKO/KO +243. I really think Floyd stops Ortiz, but I'll admit the -148 of Floyd by decision are tempting too.

    In June 2005 I spoke to Arturo Gatti and Buddy McGirt on a conference call just before his fight with Floyd. I was working for a site called rabbitpunchboxing.com and was assigned to call in at that conference. Buddy and Arturo were saying the strategy they were going to beat Mayweather with was called "Hacoona Matata" whereby Gatti was going to try to hit Floyd right behind the left ear whenever he did that shoulder roll thing. Dont know why McGirt called it "Hacoona Matata" if thats slang for that part behind the ear or what. I spoke to Buddy first and then asked Arturo if it was true. He said yes, they were going to hit ANY AVAILABLE TARGET---hips, elbows, biceps, behind the ear, to try and inflict any kind of pain and slow him down. The problem was Floyd was so goddam fast, Gatti couldnt touch him anywhere, Hacoona Matata or anywhere else for that matter.

    Now we're hearing Ortiz will try the same thing---hit any target legal or borderline-legal. I think despite the 6 years that have elapsed since Floyd's fight with Gatti, that Floyd hasnt really lost much speed if any, and that Ortiz will suffer the same fate as Arturo, who quit after 6. In fact Gatti had a better chin so Ortiz prob wont make it past 4 or 5 and will quit in the same fashion he quit against Maidana.

    I want to be wrong though and thankfully I often am.
    Good point Miles. But AdamGB was NEVER wrong.

    I know. But I've seen the light, and I've come to realize, grudgingly so, that you have always been right all along, and I have been humbled by that, and that a law should be passed henceforth detailing said righteousness and subsequent humility and engraved in gold and silver leaflet foil.
