    I wouldn't count your eggs before they hatch anyways because Ortiz is no Pac and he was able to tag Floyd pretty easily there....your boy IS GOING to have some problems in the ring with Pac.
    I wouldn't call landing in the teens pretty easily.

        Ortiz was landing easily on Floyd? Is that why he was reduced to trying a obvious headbutt out of frustration?

          That's a good idea! I like this option, talk about incentive!

                  This fight needs to be made, and maybe it will. I don't agree with anyone who feels that Pac was "baiting" Mayweather into a fight by not performing at his best against Marquez. He was trying to win that fight in every round, and he certainly would have wanted to knock Marquez out. It's just a stylistic problem he has with Marquez. Anyone who thinks he was allowing Marquez to punch him in the face and miss with his own shots is maybe forgetting how the first two fights with Marquez went for Pac in that they were both very closely contested battles. I hope the fight with Mayweather happens soon though as it is so rare for the top two pound-for-pound fighters in any combat sport to be able to face one another.

                      Who the hell did that ?

                      Does everyone really know whats going on except for most of the media and all of Pacquiao's fans?

                      What a classic, Manny on the shelf, Cotto and Marg in the fridge, and Floyd sitting comfortably on the outside laughing his arse off.

                      What an unbelievable situation.
