    To be fair he has made a lot of them look easy, look at Canelo

    that is true . u have to fight floyd like victor and cotto did. but u kno wut under his dad he woulda took a whole different approach to those fights.
    he fights more boring under his father and wit roger his fights were gettin fun for a second... and thats why he switched trainers everyone was trying emulate him wit the shoulder roll and everyone started to study it. once he seen clowns like berto and broner do it an alot of the young a couple young prospects here n there. mayweather hardly does that crap wit his dad a little here n there but now floyd just comes in the right in great shape like always and he plans on boxing ur ears off on the move all night it seems with very few moments he gonna be puttin on pressure but he will have a few rds that do to put a stamp on the decisios

    After Ortiz beat Berto, all everybody (fans and media) was talking about was how Floyd or Pacquiao would never go near Ortiz. Way too big of a danger with his youth and power in combination with coming off the big FOTY-caliber win, everyone thought...

    Then Floyd signed to fight him and a whole different tune has been played regarding this fight.

    Tough fight as in how it played out in the ring?

    Or tough fight as in the consensus caliber of opposition being difficult?

    Either way, he has had a couple from that first category and many from the latter.

    It was a crap win, but we all have to take into account that punching power and style is a big issue here.
    Floyd was outclassing Victor from the start, and would have eased to a 120-108 type decision but he chose to cheapshot Ortiz twice after the latter started to get dirty out of frustration.

    Floyd is a defensive fighter with decent power, so he normally wouldn't stop guys like Ortiz. I expect him to stop Khan though if that ever happens, wich would be he first legit stoppage after Hatton.

    lmao at people thinking that Floyd cant pull Maidana from a Broner rematch. Maidana would drop the rematch in a heartbeat just for the cash incentive of fighting Floyd. He'd make more money losing to Mayweather than beating Broner a second time.

    drainelo at 154 averages 45+ punches a round.

    152 drainelo, ~40punches first 5 rounds, zombier than zomby dela hoya who averaged 60+ first 5 rounds against pac.

    pedweather has been fighting berto-level since unretirement.

    pee- 2weight classes below, first fight at ww, cheated in weight for good measure.

    granpa- 2 yrs off, beat no-bricks margo, took 19million punches. unroided, slow with snail mail punches almost decapitated ped.

    ortiz-berto1

    guerroeto-berto2

    cotto-damaged goods, busted his nose. (can only go up 1 weight class, pretty ordinary).

    maidana/khan-berto 3.

    ped is cycling off as we speak.

    Ortiz was in a FOY with berto and took his title, i thought he earned his shot.

    Win doesnt look to good now though but hey Mayweather took on a prime, heavy handed southpaw back when they fought, just chalk it up.

    Thats why i think its took so long to announce the fight. I know hes trying to pay Broner step aside money or whatever to get that fight. probably even telling Broner u can get my undercard spot if u let me get him

    It doesn't matter who Floyd fights, your critical ass will be as negative as ever.

    Cotto and Alverez where good wins.

    Guerrero and Ortiz where ****.

    If he fights and beats Manny, you'll just be calling Manny shot.
