I love how people just say the words "use the jab" as an answer to everything...lol
That is exactly how he HAS to fight vs Mayweather. Let's look at the reality here. Mayweather is about as a complete fighter as you will find in boxing. Ortiz can't stand outside and box with him, he can't counter him because Floyd won't come forward so what is he to do?
The only thing he can do, pressure Mayweather the way he did Berto, get inside and make this as rough of a fight as he possibly can. There's no way Ortiz can match Floyd's jab and skill from the outside, he will get picked apart.
Ortiz is stronger than Mayweather and needs to use his aggressiveness and size, especially on the inside with those powerful hooks and upper cuts coming from the right hand as a left handed fighter.
That is why Garcia is right...
