    as the fight approaches i get the feeling Floyd will stop ortiz between 9-12, although i had a weird dream in which floyd won a tough close fight.

    i placed a bet on WK to beat haye on UD and mayweather by ud
    so my question is, was this a bad bet to make?

    May on UD is most probable. Floyd outclasses his opponents, its not about KOing them. Although, a KO is possible, i think Ortiz's chin can hold up for a long night of punches

    Floyd stops no one except those who head butt ring posts. He's too careful about not getting countered with a big shot to open up and put someone away. The only way Floyd stops Ortiz (imho) is if Ortiz' corner throws in the towel (distinct possibility)

    No your bet is logical,but you could cover it by the fight to not go the distance.

    Mayweather is capable of stopping Ortiz, whether he does is another story.

    I told my mate to put a bet on Mayweather TKO Round 9 or Round 11. I don't know why these rounds stuck out, but oh well.

    I've dreamed about fights before. I mean, idk it just happens sometimes. I guess i just really like boxing. I watch boxing everday, chances are its gonna pop up in a dream every once in a while.

    thats pbf. he doesnt get paid more for kos so he doesnt go for them. i had the over on pbf/masely and after nine rounds i really felt that pbf could've gotten mosely out of there if he really wanted to.

    pbf decision.

    what are your set to win? Floyd UD poses next to no profit for the amount I would be putting on
