    I voted 50%.
    Too young, too strong... Mayweather has to give eventually.
    Why not?

    anyhting can happen in boxing and everyone has a chance. i just think that ortiz has virtually no chance to pull this off after seeing their last two fights. floyd knows this as well that's why he is quick to grab this fight. he knows this would be an easy fight and get his easy $40M. why fight pacquiao for more the amount if ortiz is by far the less riskier fight?

    Ortiz will start strong, win 2 or 3 rounds while Floyd figures him out and weathers a storm, then jabs and potshots Victor to death. Floyd is deceptively strong as strong as Manny, but he wont let his hands go unless he really has to and his defense failed him like in the second round vs Mosley. It doesnt matter if its a jab, hook, or uppercut Floyd has gotten nailed with punches he didnt see coming. He sees straights, but he has trouble with right hooks. Victor has a nice right hook. I give Ortiz a 30% chance mainly due to his southpaw style and tendency for in fighting. Strength I think they the same, but almost every other category belongs to Floyd. Ortiz is in with the big dogs now. If Victor starts clowning with his defense with his hands low, maybe a tko for Floyd, but most likely a Ud.
