From the pictures from the Ortiz press conference, Floyd is looking very old, He really has aged alot these past 16 months since the Shane Mosley fight. He is really looking his age and I think the majority of people would agree with that.
When you hear him speak how sounds desperate, Desperate for what you will ask, The answer will be media attention because the lime light is on Pacquaio, Coming out with quotes like "All im asking for is respect", "I cant look past Ortiz" , "I want the fight with Pacquaio". It isnt his cocky usual self, He really does seem like a broken, demoralized man that is perhaps looking to cash out, Perhaps not this fight but maybe the next one. I think he will beat Ortiz get a fight with Pacquaio and loose to him but cash out with $100 million.
Its great seeing Floyd being served the humble pie and being brought back down to earth but I really do think that Floyd is old, desperate, broken, demoralized and on the verge of a total boxing defeat, That defeat may not come at the hands of Ortiz but perhaps Pacquaio, Mayweather will take solace in his loss by the large cash out.
Its hard to say if he's past his prime. Not being in the ring for nearly 16months definitely won't help him. But, we all know that Floyd is not your average fighter. Plus, he's never taken a beating in the ring and he always stay close to fight weight. I think the Ortiz fight will be highly competitive.But Floyd's defense and experience should get him the victory. Manny didn't look his best against a shot Mosely. So the question should be if Manny is past his prime.
Pacquiao fans are rooting for Mayweather cuz they are affraid that Ortiz beats him first. Now they start getting delusional thoughts hoping that Pacquiao fights an old washed up Floyd to get a victory win...***** please! Lol if and that's a big IF Mayweather beats Ortiz then Pacquiao will be an easy fight cuz Pac makes so many more mistakes than Ortiz. Pac gets away with these mistakes to viewers eyes cuz he can take a punch and he throws a lot of punches to discourage opponents which is why he doesn't use a defense. Ortiz makes less mistakes, picks his shots well, has better defense and a longer reach which will give mayweather a hard time to pull and counter. With Pacquiao he'd make him look similar to Marquez...
meh. for all we know its just a ruse by floyd, pretending to be shot when he's not. remember that one of floyd's skills is in playing mind games.
maybe he's doing this to give Oritz a false sense of security.
or maybe people are simply over reacting. i for one DON'T want floyd to be out of shape. it would be a hollow victory if Pac fought and won against a shot floyd.
Floyd still prime
He without a doubt is still in his prime. He is filled in to his frame and is now a very strong welterweight. His body shows it, and Ortiz will not last. Floyd is also being smart he knows that by being humble now and drawing attention to the steroid issue he can corner Pac later. When this fight finally does happen Pac will realize he is in real trouble. A bigger, stronger, faster, hard hitting version of Marquez. Peace out
Didn't a colombian brawler beat up your hero in 1 round?
Didnt Victor Ortiz quit like a dog against Maidana? And also didnt Pacquaio the best fighter in the world loose to some random guys called Torrecampo and Singsurat? :bottle:
Mayweather reality check:
"All roads lead to Floyd Mayweather"
All roads lead to Manny Pacquaio and Floyd knows it, Thats why he was literally begging for media attention at the Ortiz press conference. Nobody really cares about Mayweather anymore other than African Americans.
"Im the king of the throne!"
What throne is that? Pacquaio has won more world titles in more weight categories and he is the P4P king.
"Im dedicating this fight to battered woman"
FLoyd had the audacity to critic Diego Corrales and dedicate that fight to battered woman and then Floyd starts beating his own wife, What a hyprocrite. Then people wonder why Floyd is so hated.
Floyd Mayweather has gone the way of OJ Simpson, Its his own fault, Its nice to see him crying for some limelight. :crying:
I just think you need to become a fan of boxing, no one but bums care about all that race hating crap, and all of this stupid hating Mayweather stuff.
If Flody comes out cocky they whine, if he comes out humble he's desperate. lol clowns.

They'll always find something to whine about, it is what it is.
lol,watch how this guys tune changes after the fight
I said Mayweather will beat Ortiz, But im saying that he will be given a total beating by Pacquaio. Mayweather is looking to cash out against Pacquaio he knows he wont win.
