    i saw it differently. floyd was just getting hit a lot vs ortiz for me to conclude pac would'nt hit him hell of a lot more. i dont see floyd winning vs pac if he fights like all the southpaws he fought, actually i see him getting stopped within 10 rounds.

      exactly...it's absurd how these people can calculate pac's chances by watching the floyd-ortiz fight.

        Usually when fighters try to come forward against pac/bully him they get stopped or severely beaten. I thought fighters who come forward against pac are tailor made for him..

          It's funny how ppl are taking this fight an compairing it to if mayweather where to fight Manny, just cause ortiz hit him with sum good punches, did ppl forget we seen a style from floyd that I havent seen since the gotti fight? He was way more aggressive and put together some great combos. Ppl tend to forget that Floyd fights his fight and adjust to whatever his opponet does. So compairing how he fought vs ortiz is really making ppl look ******.

            Yeah that's usually because they don't know how to be defensive and come forward. Or they suck defensively, period.

              Who compared Pacquiao to Ortiz? I'm more confident in Mayweather's chances because he's still very sharp, and Manny's slipping in my opinion. Of course both aren't in their physical prime, but only one of them has the attributes to continue to fight at this level.

                Still when u come forward /walk down your opponent you put yourself in a situation to get hit and hurt. Floyd may be a defensive wizard but when he thinks offensively especially against pac (who is arguably one of the best offensive fighters in the game) he is putting himself in a situation where he can get tagged and hurt. Floyd's best bet is to stand his ground let pac jump in and then counter. if you try to walk down pac you can't expect not to get hurt.

                  Not Floyd - and none of those fighters Manny fight are on the same defensive planet. Universe. At all. Bad comparison.

                    And none of the fighters floyd fought are on the same offensive level as pac, which is why Floyd vs pac is such an interesting fight to watch.
