At least according the this Ring Magazine poll:
http://******.craveonline.com/
Ortiz KO: 39.3%
Ortiz by dec.: 8.9%
Mayweather KO: 14.6%
Mayweather by dec.: 36.0%
Draw: 1.2%
GBP much?
I've seen a few different polls that had it close yet none that I rememeber had Ortiz as the favorite.
However there are a lot of Mayweather haters that want to see him lose like every fight no matter who it is. Its always after the fact to people flip the script.
In this case with those numbers I can see Hoya having something to do with it.
That's what I was thinking. GBP has every motive to try and make this fight look competitive, but shame on them if they are willing to drag down the reputation of Ring Magazine in the process.
It cant really be this close in peoples minds. It's 2 of my fave fighters going at it in a bit, but the solid money has to be on Money pot shotting to a UD.
I looks rigged to me. No way ½ the population thinks Ortiz will win.

This is not a pick'em fight imo. It's a clear Mayweather win. Ortiz got the fight because he beat a ridiculously overhyped Andre Berto. Before that he was drawing with Lamont Peterson and quitting against Maidana. Whilst Peterson and Maidana are both good fighters they are nowhere near Mayweather's level.
I'm not saying i won't give Mayweather credit because you have to as he was the best opponent available, but Mayweather has beaten better fighters than Ortiz and i'm quite surprised at how hyped up Ortiz has got just off that one win against Berto.
It's called "wishful thinking".:cool2: It's good for Floyd. When he takes Ortiz to school these same people have to give him credit.
It must be fake man.
Ortiz is a 5:1 underdog on betting sites.
Yeah its either rigged or people decided to vote with what they want to happen. No way can that many people see it that way. Mayweather wins by late stoppage.
Ortiz should be the favorite. Big money has been on Ortiz since day 1
Which lines reflect that? I'd love to find a bet on an underdog Floyd, I'd put everything on it.
Ha! Thanks for sharing that... good to know what people out there are thinking.
That is about the same ratio on facebook.
