I like Ortiz and think he is a great talent, but, I can't understand how people anoint him with greater accomplishments than he deserves. Let's rewind the past 2 years: he get's stopped by Maidana, beats 2 journeymen (Diaz/Alatorre), beats 2 old over the hill fighters (Campbell/Harris), has a lackluster draw agains Lamont "freakin" Peterson and a great win against Berto. That's the past 2 years and imo the only 3 competitive fights he had he went 1-1-1. Where's the consistency? Where's the string of title defenses? I still can't get over the look he had when he quit against Maidana and when he let Peterson back him up throughout the championship rounds. That being said, I like Floyd's choice and think there is a strong possibility of an entertaining fight if a game Victor shows up. Hopefully this kid puts up a good effort cus boxing needs more stars!

i see ortiz pressing the fight and having moments, but his inexperience will be on spotlight... floyd will counter punish him, causing ortiz to slow down & be reluctant to throw. then floyd will do what he always does, step up his offense the remainder of the fight & school the kid...Oh its always interesting to hear from Uncle Roger as you never know what ******ity will come out of his mouth.
So now Ortiz is better than Pacquiao huh?
Well I sure hope you're right Roger that way it can at least be a competitive fight. As I see things now, I see a very boring, dominant UD for Mayweather.
optimistically, i see a hungry ortiz try to bring the fight to floyd... but ultimately get outclassed in a somewhat entertaining boxing clinic...
but realistically, we might get a stinker of a fight... ortiz befuddled & nullified as floyd pot-shots for majority of the fight. ortiz getting the biggest payday for showing up. GBP in-house bonanza
but floyd get props for fighting ortiz... pac SHOULDVE fought ortiz for unification...Comment

LOL, they did the same **** with the Mosley fight, they didn't have to, it's a solid fight! you don't have to sell us on why you're fighting this guy rather than Pacquiao. I'm looking forward to 4 months of Roger quotes, and the **** Floyd says to get under Ortiz's skin

"Yes, anytime a guy is making the kind of money that Floyd is making, ****, who aint going to come back? A dead man would come back if he could," Roger rambled on.

Maybe Carlos Baldomir is better than Pacquiao too.
So if Ortiz is better than Pacquiao, why doesn't Floyd fight him make more money, add to his legacy and have an easier night?Comment

Pacquiao refuses to fight Mayweather because of drug testing. Props to Mosley and Ortiz for stepping up the plate!Comment
