    Watching that video: Ortiz still makes one of the worst and most significant mistakes in boxing and I simply can't fathom how it has not been drummed out of him. He constantly squares up all the time in nearly every single exchange. It's hot he gets knocked down all the time. He has a great chin, but his footwork and thus balance is terrible. It's such an amateur mistake and it frustrates me no end. I just can't get over such a huge, blatant, obvious and easily fixable mistake being so prominent in his game.

    He squares up when simply moving around and then when he throws he brings his left foot all the way up right next to his right foot while throwing punches from both hands....which then creates very little power and a huge easy target. Mayweather won't stop Ortiz but he might catch him off balance enough to score a flash KD or two.

      I find it embarrassment of an article, I hope the author doesn't actually think he is writer much less a boxing fan.

        the writing is on the wall as far as this being a lopsided win for Floyd but hey, how about giving the fight a chance at least?


        this fight fan isn't griping about the lost $70 yet...lookin forward to seeing how Saturday unfolds
        Good **** Mak.

          Good post, something I've always noticed as well. From what I remember it's how Berto knocked down Ortiz twice.

              is this actually from a professional writer? I have never read such biased non factual bull**** in my life. Well from a so called professional writer that is. I read this type of biased bull**** on the site from just regular people fans of one guy non fans of another. i expect that. but wow they are really allowing this guy to write about boxing? like seriously mayweather runner? out of 41 fights id like anyone to post at least 5 fights where floyd did this so called running for the majority of the fight. and if they dont know the difference between boxing and running then writing about boxing is not for them. running is oscar delahoya in final 4 rounds vs trinidad. thats running. not once have i whitnessed floyd do that. ive pretty much seen everyone of his fights.
