Floyd claiming he will KO Ortiz

He has made this claim every time he has fought for the last five years, and it has only happened once, that in the tenth round after a limited Ricky Hatton gave him all he could handle. Floyd also claims that the only reason he hasnt knocked out all of his recent opponents is that the wouldnt stand and fight. That is simply a lie that can be proven by simply watching his fights. I was pleased that Floyd was so aggressive against SSM, however he did not get the KO, and it is not because SSM ran. SSM stood and traded. If Floyd does stop Ortiz, I will be impressed, and I will give him props, but I dont think he will. If Floyd does stop Ortiz, will you be impressed and give him credit? If he doesnt stop Ortiz, will you be dissapointed and even bother listening to his claims of immenent destruction the next time around?

The right style? Oh, you mean to get sucker punched. Right you are... Gatti got the same "sucker punches", fell down for the KD, got back up. Mosley got the same right hand, flinched, continued fighting. Not comparing Ortiz with Gatti and Mosley. But either Ortiz could have gotten back up, but thought he'd get a NC or DQ and had no heart to actually fight, or Mosley/Gatti's chin is 10x better than Ortiz's chin. I think both are correct. Ortiz is the better fighter all around though, than Gatti, definitely doesn't have the same heart and chin as the late Gatti, and doesn't have the chin of Mosley. Gatti got hit with two hard left hook "cheap shots". Mosley got hit with left-right but not as hard as Gatti and Ortiz got hit.

Ortiz has the right style to get stopped , I dont think its important anyway as winning is the name of the game , he stopped Hatton but not JMM because of styles , Floyd is not a big puncher but he can box the ears of a mouse , KO is the pop generations macho mentality , I look at a fighter for what they are over the whole fight , not what they are not in an instant , Floyd is a ring general he owns elite fighters through skill , a KO really only means you landed one big shot . The right style? Oh, you mean to get sucker punched. Right you are...

If Mayweather ko's Ortiz it says more about the level of fighter Ortiz is than it does about Mayweather's performance.

Hopkins has being saying it every fight and he hasn't scored a KO in like 35 years, so it is what it is. I actually do think he stops him though. Maybe not a pure KO, put a stoppage at least. Lol at the 35 years, not far from the truth.
