    Cute story about Ortiz.. But same ole "raised from the block, now he's on top" BS. Nice guys wins popularity, but drama sells.
    Can you imagine if there were TWO Floyd like personalities on 24/7? Ratings would go up the roof! Bank on that

    HBO are masters of manipulation.

    They made me think for a minute Margs had a chance against Pac.

    They ain't fooling me again. This will be an easy fight for Floyd.

    No. It is not. I don't recall Nate Campbell or Lamont Peterson being knocked down. :-(

    Both of those guys were knocked down by Ortiz.

    It doesn't matter though because those guys aren't elite fighters.

    +1. Another very good business move from Mayweather I must admit. I watched Ortiz fights and I don't think he has much of a chance but after watching the ring life video I could almost believe in Ortiz chances (I don't). But people will definitely buy it!! Top rank better wake up bc Golden Boy is just starting to put some real cards together. If the main players on the market start to step it up the fans will benefit from it and the whole sport too. Props to Ken Hershman & Richard Schaefer so far.

    2 personalities like Mayweather would be too much **** at the same time. In this one Ortiz is playing like he's pissed off so far and Mayweather is like the humble guy. I got the feeling Mayweather will keep on playing this role until the last press conference where he start talking some real **** to Ortiz. Kind of what Hopkins did against Pascal: u be respectful to the guy until the last press conference where u take it all out on the guy. Pascal admitted being taken aback by Hopkins with this move.

    The only thing this video has accomplished is to make me feel sorry for Ortiz when he gets his ass whipped. But he's young so he'll bounce back. Good story.

    There was an official KD against Campbell but it was more of a push.

    Why do bad amateur and hobby boxers love Mayweather ? Always wondered that connection,
    Victor Ortiz Rd. 4 Stoppage. Will be brutal.
