Mayweather announces ring return against Ortiz on Sept. 17

Nobody from the Y2k era can beat Floyd.. Maybe a prime Forrest but that's about it.

He deserves all the credit once he steps inside the ring with this true young lion in Victor Ortiz. I can't believe some of ya arent happy with this matchup.

Floyd is going to rip Ortiz a new asshole and here's why. Besides the fact that he's few notches above him, FLoyd fights souhtpaws aggressive. He totally switches up his style when up against these southpaw opponents and he's going to walk Ortiz down and punish him. He should fight Martinez after and retire as a true great. Beating martinez means just as much to the eyes of true boxing fans and he should retire after that.

If he beats Ortiz and MArtinez, he'd be a top 20 ATG for me..

I agree, that is what's going to happen and because I already know the outcome is why I can't look forward to it.

if this fight isn't going to be a tune-up for a possible pacquiao or martinez fight then i'm not interested. i've got a feeling after he beats ortiz he'll just go away for another long vacation.

Maybe this is just floyd's plan. Fight once every couple of years just to keep his name in the £4£ list.

At least Floyd is getting back in the ring. People were saying Ortiz would be a good fight for Manny Pac aside from Floyd, so this should be ok for Floyd to fight him, i'am hopping that it is only a warm up for Pac man tho as Ortiz is also a southpaw.

Mayweather slipping in the backdoor here to grab yet another meaningless trinket from a gutsy guy who prior to exposing a frozen Berto was thought to then have little chance, no chin and even less desire for the ring. As long as he fights, good, but his timing and selection need perspective. I think he knocks Ortiz out when he wants, how he wants and if he wants. Ortiz has earned a big fight he did himself proud and proved the naysayers wrong.. Good luck. He'll need it.

I think it's a good fight, Ortiz deserves the big payday. I think after this fight Floyd goes on another long vacation. I'm not a PBF hater by no means but i do hope Ortiz KO's him, i just happen to like Ortiz better than i like Floyd.

i think he's more concern these days in making easy money.

Not long after the Ortiz vs Berto fight, Berto accuses Ortiz of using PEDs. It is interesting how Mayweather acts on this accusation. Will he require Ortiz to undergo OSDT? If not, then all of Mayweather's claim of wanting to clean boxing of PEDs is just an excuse to avoid Pacquiao.
