    Ortiz isn't exactly iron-chinned. He loves the canvas. Maybe accurate punches on the glass jaw will do him in

    I know Mayweather is going to dominate this fight, but Mayweather hasnt been an OLD Floyd in a long time, i dont see him throwing more than 3 punch combos at all. I mean i know he claims he's going to go toe to toe, but i wont believe that til i see it.

    it will not be a KO but a TKO - the Ref will stop it.

    If Floyd's aggressive, he isn't going to let them hit him just because he can.

    I see Floyd pounding Ortiz with bodyshots and stopping him.

    I think Ortiz is as agressive as Hatton yet slower and more open with a weaker chin.

    Its going to be Ortiz's agression that gets him knocked out, he doesnt know how to go backwards.

    I would. I see Ortiz as someone who is very capable of being stopped.

    Ortiz will fight Floyd like how Hatton did, bull rush in and throw a bunch of punches, and maybe thats why Joe Cortez is ref.

    Ortiz has a chance imo. Floyd gotta keep distance, and get off first, i dont think its a good idea to stand in front of Ortiz, because he will try to swarm and throw body shots.

    floyd targeting the body with the right hand and landing the straight right all night winning a decision 119-109 type.
    Thats the most logical outcome imo, but I think ortiz has the power to drop mayweather if the lay offs have affected him.

    If he really tried to, he could stop him late.

    Hasn't got a great chin

    Been known to fold under pressure

    Heart has been questioned in the past

    I think he could get a late TKO, I expect Mayweather to pick him apart to be honest, Ortiz might cause some problems early but I think Floyd takes over from about 4-5 onwards and I just don't think Ortiz has the experience, speed, brain etc to whether a prolonged beating like Marquez and Mosley did.

    Hope I'm wrong but im going for Floyd TKO11
