    If Floyd does struggle acorss the whole fight with Victor Ortiz then he shouldn't go anywhere near Manny Pacqiauo.

    They're a different class of fighter and it will indicate a clear decline.

      Exactly, .

      That's why he should just retire. No need to build Manny's resume up with another shot fighter ala DLH, Margarito and Mosley.

        No, Larry. If Floyd doesn't do the shoulder roll even once, he should announce his retirement immediately after the fight.

        Max Kellerman: "Floyd you looked awful tonight. What happened to the shoulder roll?"

        Floyd: "I don't know, Max. I couldn't roll my shoulder and got caught. I'm going to have to talk with my promoter and see about retiring.

        Max: "What promoter, Floyd?"

        Floyd: "See, that's what I'm taking about."

          Ignore those twisting your words. I know what you mean, and I agree. Unless Floyd has some valid reason, like some illness or injury he suffered in the lead up to the fight.

            if thats the case i'll become more and more su****ious of manny. Manny has about 50 something fights, most of them are brutal wars and he got better late in his career. floyd barely takes damage. iunno. if floyd struggles then maybe we are under estimating victor. i already know floyd is not the same fighter he use to be. but you can't really tell, he changes his style every fight.

              i do think his performance will be an indication of whether he chooses to fight pacquiao.

                  If he loses or Ortiz comes within a point or two of winning, Floyd should consider retiring. Ortiz isn't THAT good, it would definitely be more a case of Floyd dropping off due to age.

                      I wonder if Wazaa would post the same ****** **** if it was Khan vs floyd...lol

                      Mayweather will beat Ortiz but it's a lagit fight and Ortiz with his speed and power is a dangerous opponent.
