That's the point, there is no better opponent other than Pac and that fight should have happened. If he took that fight then fought Ortiz after it he would look much better. What next after this?, Amir Khan?. If he's not fighting Pacquiao then he's going to mix it up with the new comers and that's cheap.
DE how did someone else beat you to posting this. You are supposed to be the team mayweather promo man around here:good
Trying to imagine how awful Amir Khan would be in a Face-Off, would be extremely cringey. Anyway I fancy Ortiz to do well, I can't explain why, just have a sneaky feeling.
That doesn't stop Ortiz from being a legit opponent. Or Khan if he gets a legit 147 win in, a legit fight either.
Floyd is nice to people he has just cherry-picked and knows they have no chance against them. Look back at his attitude towards JMM. Whereas legit threats like Mosley, Oscar and Ricky, get the real Floyd Mayweather.
If there are no better opponents this doesn't mean these guys are legitimate opponents. What would people say if Pacquiao was scheduled to fight Maidana or Khan?, this is no different. I'll still enjoy it while it lasts and hope, though highly and surely doubt, Pacquiao is next.
Exactly. This so called legitimate opponent, Ortiz, would still have his ass handed to him by past-prime fighters like Margarito and Cotto - two guys who Pacquiao has been criticized for picking on.
If Maidana or Khan was the best possible person besides Floyd, then they wouldn't say a thing. Thats why Floyd is not getting much heat for fighting Ortiz, cause its the next best possible thing at his weight. Pac is getting a little heat for the Marquez cause some feel there are better chooses at 147 and down other then Marquez at this point.
I wasn't aware of Pacquiao recieving any heat for fighting JMM. But if he is, then that's just retarted. While he was off fighting Mosley and Margarito, everyone was on his back for not choosing JMM - the best possible opponent while Mayweather was away. Not just that, but because he had history with him, too. JMM for Pacquiao is a far more competitive opponent than Ortiz is for Mayweather.
I guess Floyd should have stayed retired:-( before the Mosley fight I wanted Manny to fight Marquez at 140 or below and then Berto, but we got Marquez at 144 where we know he's not that good at
I call bull****!!! Ortiz will knock Margo the **** out. Margo is shot and needs to sit his ass down somewhere. He is a ****ing punching bag to say the least. He eats punches for breakfast, lunch, and dinner.
