    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.

    I think Ortiz has redeemed himself against Berto and winning a version of the title.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    Hard to say, Floyd gives so many looks and styles it's really anyone's guess? I really think the layoffs have given Floyd the opportunity to grow into a welterweight thats why he wasnt shy about facing Shane straight up and on the front foot even after being crumpled.

    Is it conceivable Floyd fights straight ahead on the front foot dishing it out? Sure is, but at the same time so is a content to box his ear off scenario too.

    I think Floyd will draw him in absorb hooks on his shoulders and arms in the shell just to rough Ortiz up and score big time inside. Floyd is a tremendous in fighter, couple that with some forearms and spoiling and I think he unnerves Ortiz and really drags him into deep cold water mentally to drown him. Ortiz will get cut fast and it will go down hill from there

    I'm not saying that I'm never wrong... Just that Floyd, a cautious, relatively small and light punching welterweight is very very unlikely to stop Ortiz within 4 rounds.

    Floyd is not a KO puncher and a slow finisher. He hasn't stopped a guy within the first half of a fight since 1998... At 130 pounds. I can't see him breaking that habit now... To me it would be as likely as Vitali getting disqualified was.

    I hope that Floyd does KO Ortiz in four, because that insane post has me dreading a 'cable guy' type of scenario from you if I am right again.
