The people here don't know **** about boxing.
Floyd is most definitely the underdog for this fight to me. Sure, Ortiz hasn't fought the best competition, but he's been busy, he's strong, he's bigger than floyd, and he's an aggressive southpaw. Floyd only has a slightly beefier record compared to Ortiz. He hasn't really fought great opposition in about 4 years now. Shane Mosley was definitely OLD when they fought and JMM was at too high of a weight for sure.
Floyd has skills, don't get me wrong... but if he can't control the pace for this fight like he is used to, I wouldn't be surprised to see him lose/get ko.
