just watched castillo vs mayweather 1 and no dought castillo won that fight and hopfully ortizs camp has watched it too and has took the map layed out to victory.ortiz is a bigger stronger and younger version of castillo if he follows this fights gameplan he will ko gayweather.
Castillo was a BETTER fighter with a more suitable style against Floyd than Ortiz and still didn't manage to win.
I've always said it'd be someone like Ortiz, who can hurt a guy badly with a good punch, would be the guy to beat Floyd. You're not going to decision Floyd, the guy is better at making adjustments than anyone in boxing. Don't get me wrong, it'd be a massive upset, but thats what it'll take to stop Floyd, a crushing clean power shot.
1) Ortiz isn't Castillo. 2) Mayweather was a smaller guy back then, and less experienced. 3) Mayweather won. Twice.
ortiz has no ring IQ no D hes just strong with power mayweither is stronger with more D best in the world with boxing IQ you do the math
I want to see how big Ortiz physical size compared to Mayweather is or vice versa. Who wins Mosley 2009 vs Ortiz?
Ortiz is a far inferior fighter to a prime JLC. If he's going to win, it won't be by executing a perfect pressure fighting gameplan. He's too stiff, basic, and doesn't have the jab required for that to happen against a great defensive fighter with versatility like Floyd. If he wins, it'll be by a barrage after landing something huge. Don't count on that though. Floyd's gonna put on a clinic in accurate punching.
I can't imagine anyone out there really pictures Ortiz outboxing Mayweather. He has a punchers chance but personally I think the term "punchers chance" is ******ed. Its boxing. A guy who can punch is never out of the fight until the ref waves it off. Floyd can be hit. He doesn't get hit a lot but he can be hit.
