Official:*Mayweather vs Ortiz* Boxings Reactions on the Fight [Max, Dan, Arum etc]

[misterjt09]

Are we forgetting who we are talking about here?? We're talking about one of the most techincally sound boxers ever to lace up gloves against a tough but reckless at times, questionable hearted kid. The fight against Berto was definitely a Fight of The Year candidate but Ortiz showed no signs of intelligence in this fight. Yes, he showed a ton of heart and courage in that fight but it was Andre Berto he was fighting. Other than speed and power, Berto lacks the intangibles it takes to be one of the greatest fighters in boxing. Lets not forget, Luis Cullazo pretty much handed him a lost and Berto hasnt faced much opposition that could hold a match to Mayweather. I understand that styles make fights but that wild, throwing and lack of tact will get u knocked out or UD'd by the end of the night. Although Mayweather is 10 years this guy's senior, I still see him picking him apart and this becoming a technical schooling on September 17th. Keep in mind, Mayweather made JMM, one of the better boxers and counter punchers look like he was fresh out of the amatuers. Notice I said boxers. Lately, I see people have forgotten the science of boxing. Boxing is not standing in the ring throwing wild punches and standing waiting to get a punch in return, but it is simply the art of scoring on your opponent without getting hit in return. This is what Mayweather does everytime he goes out. I dont expect different for this fight. Ortiz gets quite reckless at times and I think Floyd will make him pay for the mistakes he makes in that square circle.

This fight will show where Floyd is at for his next 3-4 fights (1 year from now). If his reflexes are shot or not. Should be a good night of fights.

Emanuel Steward "Exciting Match up... Very surprised Floyd took the fight..."

Max Kellerman "Young, big, hungry, In his prime strong welterweight..." The Odds opened at 7 to 1 for Mayweather and have not moved, And I think that reflects among the betting public you may not Like Mayweather, you may not Like the fact that he is as good as he is... But you better recognize it.

damn! wish this one was still up, i missed it

I know people harp on the age, but Floyd is a very young 34. When MJ was 34, he was the undisputed best basketball player in the world. The Bulls won their last championship when he was 38. By keeping himself in shape all the time, his body is still young. By the time Ortiz looks up, it's going to be the fourth round and Floyd is landing his straight right punch with regularity. If you watch a Mayweather fight, once you see that punch landing, it's all over.
