Would Arturo Gatti Hav Beaten Floyd Mayweather In A Rematch If...

he gained 15 pounds and turned southpaw?

That's what Ortiz/Mayweather will be. Ortiz completely unsold me on his chances after the 'Face Off'. Victor Ortiz is overconfident and underprepared. He thinks he will just show up, blast through the doors, and win. He is going to come in with a mindset that's straight ahead forward, wound up, and eating punches just to prove a point. Mayweather is going to land at will and all Ortiz will do is take a frightful beating until someone stops it.

I think you're underestimating Ortiz. The kid has SERIOUS power and can take huge punches. He ate quite a few punches from Maidana before he was taken down, in what ended up being a very good fight until he lost, not to mention the shots he succesfully took in the Berto fight. . Now he is at 147 so his chin is probably even stronger than it was at 140. I see this fight going more along the lines of Mayweather vs Hatton, but a lot more competitive than that, with Mayweather victorious.

Arturo Gatti is one of my favorite fighters ever.


But no.

He has SERIOUS power; and just talked for fifteen minutes like SERIOUS power is an automatic victory. You know who the last guy to think he could win a step up to elite class automatically was? David Haye. David Haye, with SERIOUS power.

That mindset that Ortiz just presented tells the story of a guy that thinks he'll just show up and Mayweather will fall over because Ortiz is bigger, younger, and hungry. He doesn't think this will be tough at all.

He won't come in looking to not get hit where possible. He thinks he just walks through and takes 10 to give 1 and win on the spot that 1 lands. Mayweather batters him; and Ortiz won't know what hit him. Thus, Mayweather/Gatti II.

Oscar better get ahold of this kid and straighten him out. A Victor Ortiz that acknowledges that he will have to do certain specific things to win is dangerous. Not one that literally says he has no gameplan.

I didn't expect to read that, I was going with the flow until you said 15 pounds and southpaw. Damn dude....

What you are saying is true. If he goes in betting on a one punch knockout he's probably screwed. But considering how that interview ended, I think Ortiz realized how good Mayweather actually is, and knows he will have to get a serious game plan together if he wants to win. Watch the video at the very end after Mayweather looked at Kellerman and said "I'm gonna kill this kid." Ortiz laughed uncomfortably and responded with a weak "shutup." .He then tried to deflect the aggression towards Kellerman. You can tell that at the end of that interview Ortiz realized what he was in store for. I think his ideas of Floyd being scared, and the reality of the FMJ that is going to show up on fight night is starting to dawn on him. I just don't think he is really that confident--especially after the interview.

He would have beat Mayweather if he had been 5 years younger and not shop worn
