    Floyd is usually the gay, but Ortiz was there. "Not this one".....right so Floyd would be stopped by Maidana too right. Hahaha, Floyd is going to stomp all over him. You can't beat Floyd without a jab.

    I reckon this fight will be a PPV, so if I do watch it, it will be on a stream. I like Surfer Vic's attitude, this could be an interesting fight because of Duckweather's inactivity and distractions outside the ring, it might be more competitive then most fans think.

    Ortiz is gonna get beat up bad imo.

    He's talking a good game but reality will set in on fight night when he can't get away from Floyd's right hands, left hooks, etc all the while he can't land anything of his own.

    There's no way Floyd would of taken this fight if he thought that Ortiz had even a decent chance of beating him also.

    .
    Do you realise that this will be Duckweather's first fight in 16 months, and will only be his 3rd fight since the Hatton fight in 2007, close to 4 years ago?
    I could be totally wrong, but I think this fight will be competitive, Floyd is good at the shit that he does, but he ain't fucking superman, there's no substitute for getting in the ring and fighting regularly.

    It doesn't matter.

    Mayweather had long layoffs between his Hatton and Marquez fight. He still looked great. His layoff between Marquez and Mosley was quite long also and he still looked great. The guy trains all year round, he's always in good shape. I'm not saying he can do it forever but he's still clearly in good shape physically and mentally.

    You don't have to be superman to beat Ortiz...........Maidana done it and Floyd is twice the fighter Maidana is.

    Ortiz does nothing in the ring that to me proves he can beat Floyd.

    He doesn't have a good jab and his footwork is average plus he is hittable. He only has alot of success when is opponent lies on the ropes. Ortiz only beat Berto because Berto constantly lay on the ropes and allowed Ortiz to throw his short shots.

    Mayweather won't give him that, he will keep it in the middle of the ring using lateral movement and pick him apart with his jabs and lead right hands.

    I see Ortiz losing clearly, he will be lucky to win a round imo.

    I agree with you on this.

    A lot of people seem to just automatically assume Floyd will beat everyone on autopilot and buy into his invincibility. More ironically, most of those who do this, are actually doing it to avoid giving him credit for his wins, 'Oh he just handpicked another easy opponent to beat' etc etc.

    With the inactivity he has had ANY fighter would suffer, and if he does come back and stomp Victor Ortiz after yet another long layoff he deserves a ton of credit for it.

    Coming back after 14 months out of the ring and only 2 fights in the past 3 or 4 years to fight Ortiz is a massive challenge.

    Ortiz is no joke. Ok he came up short against Maidana but prior to that he was wrecking everybody, and he showed against Andre Berto (a better fighter than Maidana imo) that he can take a punch, and does have a heart.

    Floyd although much much much better than Madiana, is arguably not as dangerous. He will be happy to outbox Ortiz and win without engaging which means Ortiz won't be under the same pressure.

    Of course I heavily favour Floyd, he's an all time great imo, but Ortiz has the tools to cause an upset, and upsets do happen, especially when a fight maybe isn't as well prepared as he ought to be, or is overlooking his opponent, or has gotten past his best etc.

    It's almost refreshing to see Mayweather get some shit for a change.

    Anyway, Roach speculated after the Mosley fight that Mayweather's legs might be going/ gone... I'm still here hanging on his word tbh. I'm keen to see just how aggressively Mayweather chooses to fight THIS southpaw.

    IMO, this fight is going to be won, not by what Vic don't do well. Jabs and Lateral movement. But going to be own by what Mayweather do best. Stomach jab in the early rounds. Then pocket fighting. Floyd knows how to break fighters will to win. Although I think this fight is going to be tough for Mayweather, I do see him winning clearly.

    I will be rooting for Ortiz, that clip was too short and this fight could be on primetime in the UK
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
