    Mayweather by stoppage

    Love this play at +210. odds makers undervaluing floyd's ability to get someone out of there. Probably also has to do with the public perception that most think floyd has no power and he wins all his fights by decisions. Ortiz is not an accurate puncher and his defense or lack of should be his downfall. The only way I see mayweather losing this fight is if he breaks his hand/Has a seizure in the ring/Or get's hit with a fluke punch that puts his lights out. I expect ortiz to take a ton of punishment (Closed/Swollen eyes very possible making his corner/ref stop it like the gatti fight)

    Yes we know ortiz will be bigger (probably 160 pounds on fight night) and yes we know floyd is older.(Most people think his 16 month layoff of fighting will effect him a ton but I don't see it. I've watched his training videos for this fight and he looks as fast/sharp as he did for the marquez fight.)

    Look for the left hook to be a key punch in the fight for mayweather. In videos i've watched his left hook looks stronger than his right which is nuts.

    Ortiz will get gatti'd september 17th he is not on mayweather's level. Simply a tune up fight.Still excited nontheless.

    I'm telling you man this line is crazy I think it's closer to 50/50 that it will happen. Mayweather looks fuking insane.

    Ive always thought people under estimate his power. The problem is, he doesnt try to finish most of the time. But i do think he is a different class of fighter than ortiz. Not a bad play i say.

    He also does have history of bad hands though

    How is it going to be closer than we think? Don't buy in to the ortiz hype he's going to be outclassed.

    Mayweather plays this safe and wins on cards. I like Floyd by Dec at -125.

    The sicker thing is I said he would get gatti'd and gatti did the same exact thing.. didn't protect himself in a break and got knocked down.
