What Cotto did in the 6th & 8th rds was miles better than a flurry in the 4th where ortiz never landed clean
At welterweight nobody has done better against Floyd than Victor Ortiz

Agree with the above, Ortiz only looked like threatening to win a round just before he almost got DQ'd then KTFO'd. IMO, Cotto and Hatton both did better. Probably De La Hoya was the most competitive.Comment

Ortiz is so mentally fragile that Mayweather would've picked him apart later in the fight. He was already rubbing his head in the first round due to frustration. And afterwards, the coward goes on in interviews saying Mayweather elbowed him 17 times and such BS.
Ortiz was losing the 4th round too. Mayweather was controlling the round until that little flurry with 20 seconds left. A 166lbs Ortiz wasn't a match for Mayweather.Comment

First of all, Victor was not doing that well. All and all, he was getting tooled, and was well on his way to getting stopped. His whole gameplan relied on being bigger, stronger, and younger. We saw some glimpses of that early in the fight, but that would certainly not have been the story of the fight if it had kept going. Most of Victor's success was mauling and fouling, he wouldn't have been allowed to keep it up and he was on his way to a stoppage loss either way.I'm not trying to praise anybody. I'm just telling the truth.
While it lasted, Victor Ortiz was doing better against Mayweather than I have ever seen, besides Castillo.
This style of fighting puts heavy pressure on Mayweather, and Pacquiao is the master of this style of fighting.
PAC fights nothing like that. Pac would not be in Floyd face trying to grapple with him and foul him. Completely different fight. Either this is a poor troll job or you really don't know boxing very well.Comment
