Bringing up Prescott or Maidana is absurd.
Ortiz is clearly a much better fighter at welter, and he should have moved up to 147 years ago like Freddie Roach suggested.
We have one fight with which to judge him on, his last one.
To EVERY other opponent/situation, I will reply "sorry bro, Ortiz is clearly a different fighter at 147, and he is much more mature than the green kid who fought Maidana".
This is a dangerous fight for an older Mayweather coming off a layoff.
Pac has never fought a welter ranked as high as Ortiz, and god knows when he last faced an opponent who was young, fast, skilled, hungry, prime, and right on top of his game.

Originally posted by hitking View PostI thought he looked like every other Mayweather opponent barring the first Castillo fight. Outclassed.
Marquez is a much better fighter than Castillo, and has a much more complete skillset.
Castillo held a considerable size advantage over Floyd, Marquez did not.
Marquez was physically out-matched to the point where he could not get his game going against Mayweather, because he learned in round two that he could not pay the price for his mistakes.
Mayweather did not attempt to out-muscle JMM, but that is not his style.....
however the physical disadvantages meant that Marquez could not settle into the fight and get his game going to compete with the skills of Mayweather.
He simply could not take any risks against Mayweather's skills, because of the size disadvantage.
That fight was a physical mismatch, which is why Team Pacquiao's insistance that Marquez has to go to welter to fight Manny, when Manny can easily make 140 according to Ariza/Roach...... is a total b1tch-move.
Marquez was a small lightweight, in order for him to be competitive, three things had to happen.....
* JMM needed to take most of his power up to welter
* JMM needed to take ALL of his speed up to welter
* Mayweather had to be affected by the weight (144) and the layoff
NONE of those things happened.

Stop playing silly games.
I am saying that if Khan takes USADA testing, then he will be proven clean.
And if Pacquiao refuses that same harmless testing protocol, then I am highly su****ious of him.
Nothing complicated about that is there ?

Khan's head is getting a little big after beating Zab "i lose to every good fighter" Judah... he needs some more fights under his belt , Floyd would cave his face in with lead right hands. it'll be a shutout.

FLOYD is Playing
Floyd is badly in need of Money and you guys are eating his ploy. Floyd is playing to trick boxing fans that he will fight again after ORTIZ. He is promoting his incoming fight to sell and goes to vacation again after he have money to sustain for his ******** and his lifestyle for 1 1/2 - 2 yrs.

Of cousre Khan is gonna agree. Mayweather is the shot caller, not Khan. Pacquiao is also a shot caller, so his not gonna be on his knees like Martinez and Khan.
