    This sounds like the plan. What Floyd would have to do is actually win the fights though. Ortiz negotiation should be easy.

    Ortiz looks to be open to the lead left hook - and Floyd is the best in the biz at delivering that punch..

    Ortiz might have his moments but Floyd starts breaking him down and tko's him.

    Floyd does not have the pop nor style to stop a strong, young welter like Ortiz!

    $ was rocking a granite chinned warrior like Zhen Mosley. He also had enough to keep iron chinned Oscar with a significant weight advantage off of him.

    Ortiz is okay chin.

    Oscar and Shane= two old fighters.

    FLoyd could not even hurt the past-prime and smaller JMM.


    Moot point though, FLoyd wouldn't dare take on a fight like this!

    No reflexes do. Floyd's power at 147 is mediocre and and his reflexes are not getting any better.

    Who said anything about a KO:patsch

    JMM has a sturdy chin but he was still rocked and hurt by smaller fighters than Foyd. (here is where you bring up FLoyd's flash kD of JMM as a reply:lol:)

    yeah? a much heavier floyd cannot drop a bloated lightweight! what does that mean? floyd doesnt have enough power in his punches. there are punches that are heavy when lands and there are punches that sting! floyds punches just sting and still it hurts but its not that heavy to knock somebody out at 147!

    Berto couldn't keep Ortiz down with those bombs he connected, Ortiz would be laughing at Floyd's punches.

    IF Floyd had the balls to take this fight he would dance his way to a boring UD!
