Very simply, will Floyd Mayweather Jr. -vs- Victor Ortiz end in a decision or stoppage? Will this go the full 12 rounds or not and why? Poll to follow, please discuss! :boxing::boxing:
From the start I always said Mayweather stops him. If him and Manny do fight, I'll also pick Floyd to stop Pacquiao.
Not going to happen. I do think Floyd would convincingly win by UD.
I really thought I was in the minority predicting Mayweather to win this fight by stoppage. Apparently not.
I was very sure Mayweather would break Ortiz down mentally, and he did, just far sooner than I expected.
floyd by decision, but i think floyd will be rocked and or knocked down just because of what he did to his pops! just my personal opinion!
What do more ppl think? Decision or stoppage. This poll is nice and close, haven't seen a real tossup in terms of fight endings in a while.
Lamont Peterson hurt Ortiz
Anyone saying Mayweather does not punch hard enough to hurt Ortiz doesn't know what they're talking about. When you regularly square up and don't tuck your chin against elite level boxers, you can be hurt.
Floyd UD Ortiz. The last time Mayweather register a KO was like 4 years ago. He ain't the same anymore.
I'm guessing this sort of thinking: "He hasn't knocked anyone out in 4 years" is the reason there is such good gambling value on this fight not going 12 rounds.. Because the reality is a knockout in this fight is a very live possibility.

Im actually quite surprised at the poll.
Floyd hasnt stopped anyone for some time and Ortiz has never been stopped. On one hand people say he is bigger, younger etc, and it will be a good challenge for Floyd, but on the other people expect floyd to stop him.
I hope people arent voting for Ortiz to win by stoppage.
I'm sure it's a typo or slip but Ortiz was stopped quite famously by Maidana.
If goes the distance Floyd. If it's a KO Ortiz. Why?
I don't see Floyd taking any chances & trying to go for the KO. I see him playing it safe as usual & putting on a boring fight just boxing enough to win on points with out taking any chances.
Ortiz if he's as aggressive as he was with Berto I think he might feel like he had Floyd hurt & try to end him, but still a dangerous move IMO. The only way I see Ortiz winning by D is if he scores multiple knockdowns. Witch won't be easy with some one that has great defensive skills like Floyd, but still possible.
OUTCOME IMO… Victor Ortiz late stopage over Floyd.
Poll results are probably about right for this fight.. But I still see Ortiz eating counter rights all night, and even with one pot shot at a time, accuracy will kill as they pile up. I'm thinking target practice, unlike his brother, don't be surprised if Garcia is willing to save his fighter.

Also a great possibility. With that said, and my above post.. I still think there is an excellent chance of Mayweather going into cruise control for 10-12, which would kill my bet.
I dont think so if you remember he landed a high volume and threw alot of punches against marquez in the 10-12 rounds and against mosley he kept holding may was going for the knockout so i dont see a cruise control because if he dont knock him out may will get crucified
