    Mayweather-Ortiz is a legitimate scrap.

    If the May-Pac "bout" ever went down it would be boring and hardly a fight as Mayweather plays safety first and does just enough to win the rounds, afraid of seriously engaging Pac for fear of getting caught.
    Then you haven't seen Floyd face southpaws. If it ever happens (Most likely won't) it's gonna be Mayweather cutting Pacquiao off and Pacquiao looking to find mid range room.

      I think he might change his style against Manny compared to how he fought other Southpaws in the past. If he's gonna try to fight Manny, then it would lead to his downfall. Manny doesn't need enough room to operate, and Floyd would be very stubborn to try to outfight him.

        Knowing that some posters on Boxingscene created new words that are now being tossed around in nationally syndicated news.

        It's enlightening to see how much power we truly have!

        ******* was coined on ESB, by me, around the time of the Marquez rematch in 2008. The first retaliation to the word was actually "JMMoron", not *****,

          That's how he normally approaches southpaws, I don't see why he would change his approach, I see nothing in Pacquiao's arsenal that would make Floyd do that. Floyd has always been more comfortable being the aggressor against southpaws, he operates better that way.

          To say "That would lead to his downfall" is more like overrating Pacquiao

            Freddie Roach once said that he wouldn't allow Manny to stand and trade with Mayweather. He wants him to use his legs and potshot to a victory. It sounds ironic, actually.

              LOL this writer truly is a *****:

              He said Pac fought Cotto and margs after they'd been destroyed but technically those two guys had won their previous outings before facing Pac.

              Meanwhile he praises Floyd for fighting Ortiz even tho Ortiz has already been outboxed by lamont peterson and beaten down and made to quit by Maidana, how can he not see his logic is flawed?

                      Congratulation!!!
                      Let me see if I understand:

                      ******* = as in ******, dumb, slow witted, simpleton, - Pacquiao fans
                      *****s = as in ****sexual, gay, oral copulation/sodomy, - Mayweather fans.

                      I think, *****s, has more negative connotation than *******, expecially for a male dominated sport of boxing. That's how fight star in grade school, by calling someone "gay". So in this immature name calling, the *****s loss.
                      Just my 2 penny thought.
