(VIDEO) Dan Rafeal "Mayweather deserves props, he not picking on an old shot fighter"

that's not saying much... the field at WW is slim pickings... this fight is only acceptable as long as it's a tune up for pac He's coming off a 16 month lay off and taking on a fighter that is better than Pacquiao' last 4 opponents (including JMM). Stop hating.

that's not saying much... the field at WW is slim pickings... this fight is only acceptable as long as it's a tune up for pac This fight STANDS ALONE ON IT"S OWN MERITS.

Anyone not named Pacquiao or Martinez is an easy fight for Mayweather, doesn't change the fact that Ortiz is one of the best fighters at 147.

Please explain. i though Floyd avoided southpaws, fighters who are bigger than him, and fighters who can punch. Ortiz has all three. While you're at it name another fighter at 147 that is more acceptable than Ortiz other than the obvious onoe. that's not saying much... the field at WW is slim pickings... this fight is only acceptable as long as it's a tune up for pac

Fat Dan speaks the truth. Ortiz isn't old or shot. In fact, Mayweather might just be chewing more than he can eat against Victor Ortiz.:boxing: we have an Ortiz nuthugger here... If anyone wants to know about this fight, dont listen to Pactards, Flomo's or this guy Its a competitive dangerous fight for Floyd and Ortiz and I for one cannot wait

It's surprising to me how so many "experts" are giving props to Mayweather for fighting a guy who is tailor made for his own skill set, and IMO doesn't pose much of a threat to him...

I agree Ortiz is not an old shot fighter. He even can be dangerous but it is no secret Mayweather chose him because he is the highest ranked, beatable opponent available. It does little to remove the taste Mayweather left by avoiding the fighters he did. yep, fighting ortiz doesn't make up for ducking a prime cotto or margarito.

Not only is Ortiz shot but he's a paper champ hypejob. He will never be half the fighter Shane mosley is or Marquez and thats real talk

It's a good fight. But I know for a fact Mayweather knows himself he's going to win easy. He was at the berto fight himself. Hopefully this one turns out like Mayweather-Hatton

i dont care what any of you haters say Ortiz is going to be a tough fight for Floyd i think he made a big mistake not taking a tune up first

Mayweather is fighting Maidana left overs..:boxing:

ortiz as a tune up for pac is good... ortiz as a one-n-done affair is bullshiiT.

It's surprising to me how so many "experts" are giving props to Mayweather for fighting a guy who is tailor made for his own skill set, and IMO doesn't pose much of a threat to him... I hear you homie but... We all know about his disastrous fight with Maidana. Ortiz has only looked good in 2 of his last 7 fights but he brings all the momentum of his last fight. He brings the perception of being the best WW not named Floyd or Manny. And he brings a belt! We always hear about high-risk/low-reward fights. This is the complete opposite. While talented, Ortiz is low-risk/high-reward for fighters like Floyd or Manny whom Victor would present very few problems. But because of the perception just recently bestowed upon Victor and because it is a fact that he is young and strong the "experts" should give props

I give him props for fighting Ortiz, but we all know Ortiz ain't ready. Even if Ortiz is ready, Mayweather will have an easy night.

Translation: Hate, Hate, hate, hate...../QUOTE] Don't get me wrong, Ortiz proved in his last fight to be a worthy fighter. However, seeing how many times Berto caught Ortiz and knowing Mayweather's "pot shot/defensive" style I just don't see any other outcome but a clear PBF decision...that's just me though...

Fat Dan speaks the truth. Ortiz isn't old or shot. In fact, Mayweather might just be chewing more than he can eat against Victor Ortiz.:boxing:
