Oh, that's right, he got the jump on Ortiz and knocked out a guy that wasn't defending himself. Since not everybody is naive like Victor, we can assume that was an isolated event and certainly not a legitimate KO.
The last stoppage by Mayweather was Hatton, 7 years ago. That's almost as long ago as BHop's last stoppage. Maybe they could call their fight: 50-50=0 chance of kayo.
Prior to defends-with-face Hatton, you have to go back to Sharmba Mitchell - knocked out thrice in 5 as he closed his career, finally by PW - and the shell formerly known as Gatti, a kayo of a guy who had traded on toughness but who had the ability punched out of him - and was knocked out later by Alfonso Gomez.
The only way this happens is if Maidana is overly aggressive and sets himself up to be KO'd. Which considering his style is very possible. But I'm still going with Floyd by decision.
Maidana can only fight one way and that's straight forward and he will be overly aggressive when gets frustrated. I still dont think Floyd will knock him out. I can see Floyd drop Maidana a couple of times but the only way Floyd stops him is if he goes after Maidana and force a KO, so he needs to leave his safety-first style and I don't think Floyd will take any unnecessary risks even when he has Maidana hurt and ready to go.
Joel Diaz, " Tim, try to knock Manny out"
Bradly "Seriously?!?!"
Joel Diaz " Yeah , swing away , you'll drop him"
Bradley "OK done deal, Manny is going down!"
Joel Diaz "Mayweather will knock out Maidana."
Lollolol.
Floyd wins by decision. Let's not get carried away kids
