So why did Mayweather Pick Ortiz?

Ortiz will take the Test.

1. Ortiz quits too much 2. Ortiz easy to Counter 3. Ortiz Swings like a orangutan, wide open 4. Money BrokeWeather lost all his money betting on the spurs 5. Ortiz isn't Manny Pacquiao Anyone got orther reasons why Brokeweather picked Ortiz?? Ortiz agreed to OSDT.

1. Take some English classes, please brah. I would love to see Mayweather/Cotto because I'm 100% sure Cotto rapes him If that is your best answer you are an idiot

He saw flaws in Ortiz. He would never pick a fight he knows he wouldn't win, but at the same time I commend him because he's giving the young lion a shot and what if Ortiz can fix his flaws come fight time? Right now he's a bigger/stronger Judah but Ortiz leaves so many openings it's ridiculous. He's the definition of a front runner, and just like in most of Mayweather's big fights, the first 3 or 4 rounds will be exciting, then Floyd will adjust and do his thing.

1. Ortiz quits too much 2. Ortiz easy to Counter 3. Ortiz Swings like a orangutan, wide open 4. Money BrokeWeather lost all his money betting on the spurs 5. Ortiz isn't Manny Pacquiao Anyone got orther reasons why Brokeweather picked Ortiz?? that pretty much sums it up but you forgot to mention, 1. He's Scared of losing his precious 0 in the Loss column and lastly 2. He's Scared of Pacquiao

I dont understand how Ortiz is a low risk no reward fighter. When everybody wanted Floyd to fight Berto. Not only that, but Pacquiao fans have already been exposed on them supporting a Victor Ortiz fight against Pacquiao. So Victor was a young future legend when it was Bob Arum talking about him vs Pacquiao, but he somehow changed to a bum when it was him vs Mayweather.

better questions... Why did Pacquiao fight Clottey?? Why did Pacquiao fight Margarito??? Why did Pacquiao fight Mosley??? NONE OF THESE GUYS WHERE THREATS AGAINST PACQUIAO, THEY WERE EASY BIG PAYDAYS.

duckquiao hasn't fought anyone good coming from an impressive win..every opponent was just a shell..margarito fought a good cotto..mayweather fought a good hatton and a good de la hoya...mosley beat a good margarito..then mr catch weight grabbed the leftovers..we all know margarito,cotto,mosley,hatton,de la hoya weren't the same fighters..and most of them were drained when mr DUCKQIAO faced them. me no like blood test me weak..that's why me lose to morales and my shoes was small too..me like fight top rank damaged goods..ok bye i go sing song and cheat on wife.

because he's not duckqiao who's after old drained damaged goods coming from a loss.

easy money to take for another long and winding vacation plus of course put some of that $$ on the piggy bank for the manny payout....lol

Because Ortiz is a low risk high reward fight for May just like all his fights at WW and Junior WW with the exception of Mosley..

because he saw something in ortiz that made him think he can win a fight against him. also, i think mayweather is a laker/heat fan, not sure...

When has Shane ever quit before he fought Pacquiao? Mayweather is fighting a proven quitter. Nice try. when someone said manny fought someone who quit..the first fighter that came to your mind is shane..really

1. Take some English classes, please brah. I would love to see Mayweather/Cotto because I'm 100% sure Cotto rapes him Ur stuck on stupid mode ,,,cotto has zero chance .too slow n predictable, just like you n ur fellow stupid assed posters !

because he's broke and needs some money quick nothing wrong with Floyd vs Ortiz

Mayweather wanted to fight Cotto when they were both at 140 and Mayweather was still trying to build his name and reputation. At the time, Mayweather had only had two fights at 140 and Cotto was a world champion at 140. Cotto would have had a significant strength advantage if they had fought. If you are a world champion, you should be ready to fight any top contender. The reason Arum didn't make the fight is because he knew that Mayweather was a significantly better fighter than Cotto and would ruin Cotto's career. However, the idiots on this site ignore this fact when they make the ridiculous claim that Mayweather was avoiding Cotto at 147. Arum will do the same thing 2012 when he refuses to put Chavez Jr. in the ring against Sergio Martinez because he knows that Martinez is significantly better than his paper champion and he doesn't want to ruin his investment if he can avoid it. Cotto was NOT ready to fight Floyd at 140. At least they admitted it that they were not ready. The fight should have happened at 147 at or around when Cotto fought Mosley .... but Floyd retired! Just because you have a title does NOT mean you are ready to fight someone of Floyd's caliber. This is what happened with Hatton who was clearly not ready to fight Floyd at 147 ..... same with Marquez (P4P #2 BUT NOT A WW) who was not ready to fight Floyd at 147 and so on. Cotto clearly needed more time ..... Like I said, it should have happened at 147. Another guy who said he was ready to fight Floyd at 147 was Margarito ... but Floyd clearly avoided that fight.

Wifebeater chose Ortiz because ortiz struggled with lamont peterson.he knows that as long as he doesn't brawl with ortiz its gonna be an easy fight. Berto lost to ortiz because he got too wild and started to brawl with ortiz.for ortiz too beat wifebeater he's gonna have to pressure wifebeater and walk thru wifebeater's best shots.but hopefully his chin will be up to the challenge.I doubt wifebeater has as much we power as berto our Maidana. You are obviously the most intelligent person on this site, so please enlighten the rest of us who are not quite as brilliant as you. Which is worse: beating your ex-wife or cheating on your present wife with a prostitute and fathering a child with that prostitute?

and you are proud to say that Floyd wanted to pick a guy that was not fully matured, as a boxer, nor ready to fight Floyd? I know that it would have "looked good" for Floyd to the average boxing fan ..... BUT what would be the point of the fight? Mayweather wanted to fight Cotto when they were both at 140 and Mayweather was still trying to build his name and reputation. At the time, Mayweather had only had two fights at 140 and Cotto was a world champion at 140. Cotto would have had a significant strength advantage if they had fought. If you are a world champion, you should be ready to fight any top contender. The reason Arum didn't make the fight is because he knew that Mayweather was a significantly better fighter than Cotto and would ruin Cotto's career.

Ortiz comes from his biggest win (with Berto being the betting favorite) for the WBC belt (Floyd'as favorite belt) at WW (Floyd's division) and is ranked the best WW (2# contender) behind Manny (who has a fight set). fact is that the fight did high HBO numbers (1.5M) and Ortiz has a big fanbase in Mexico and America. any questions? You lie. If Ortiz is so damn big why the empty seats in his Berto fight? Mexicans don't follow him much because he quit because he was getting punched too hard by Maidana. Fact is Mexicans will always doubt him. His hometown is divided on him because he blamed them for his loss against Maidana. These are common facts known to hardcore boxing fans. No idea why I picked this song, must be I'm tired.
