Floyd Mayweather Jr. vs Victor Ortiz Fight

In an interview from BoxingScene.com, Victor Ortiz continues his counter trash talks against Floyd Mayweather Jr. and even called him an "old man." He also said that he will be the one that will end the old man's career and will surely make way for the birth of a new breed of fighter under the name of vicious Ortiz.

Here's the excerpt of his statement from BoxingScene.com:

"I don't care what he brings. He's done. He was done when he signed to fight Victor Ortiz. Everything will be told September 17 when a man's career ends and another man's career begins. I will bring a cane for the old man so his back won't hurt too much."

... "Floyd is a good fighter but I've always thought he wasn't great. I'm not impressed and I'm not going to hold any respect like his 41 victims. Those fighters he fought, none of them were me. Somebody is in trouble. It's not what I think I can do. It's what I know I can do."

Well this looks interesting. At first, I thought Ortiz will not ever got a chance with the undefeated Mayweather so I did a little research and check his previous fights. The only video that I watched was his fight against Maidana when I left a remark on this blog that he can't win this match but this change a lot when I saw him fight, Andre Berto. His performance is really amazing and you can see in his eyes and his vicious attacks the hunger to win which even made Berto to rattle and eventually lost on their fight. I hope this hunger will be present on the Mayweather vs. Ortiz fight.

I am wondering right now if what is the reaction of the "trash talk" king money Mayweather!

There's a question right now raised if Floyd Mayweather Jr. will be over weight again on the Mayweather vs. Ortiz fight this coming September 17, 2011. Such suspicion is raise due to the fact that "money" May did this overweight with penalty stuff during his fight against Juan Manuel Marquez when he first return from his first retirement. He was overweight of 2 pounds and cost him almost $600K penalty but gain him a tremendous advantage against a small opponent like Marquez.

In his upcoming fight with Ortiz, there's always a possibility that part of his strategy will be by over-weighting again. But of course this is just a "suspicion" and doesn't have any real basis or whatsoever. I think he can follow the allowable welterweight limit this time and avoid unnecessary penalties plus unnecessary feedback from his haters.

Oh well, it will be a tough fight for Mayweather but as I have predicted on my previous post, in the end the undefeated will still be the undisputed undefeated welterweight fighter of the world and it takes more than a southpaw like Ortiz to take him down.

I decided to watch the previous fight of Victor Ortiz against Marcos Rene Maidana before I made this post so that I could assess properly the match and make a prediction that is quite close to the possible result. You can watch it below too so that you have an idea on what I am talking about.


Based on his performance and style of Ortiz against Maidana, I believe that he will probably lost this event and will surely loose his WBC Welterweight title to Floyd Mayweather Jr. on the later rounds of the match. Why? If he will continue with his vicious offenses which lacks defense, he will surely meet 'fatique' cause by the 'running' and solid defense of Floyd. He might land some couple of punches to Floyd but it will be not enough to take on the undefeated pound for pound boxer. He will then receive some beating on the 7th and up then might eventually get KOed before the 12th ring of the bell.

Ortiz needs to improve his defenses and avoid the counter punches of Floyd to survive the 12 round match and possible defend his crown successfully but Mayweather will be a hard shell to crack and requires more than "vicious" brawl to break.

What we can do is to watch Ortiz vs. Maidana this September 17, 2011 to really find out what will happen with the defending champion.

Prior to the big fight night of Floyd Mayweather Jr. and Victor Ortiz on September 17, 2011, you might want to watch the great fights of the two boxers and to compare their styles and fighting skills inside the ring.

Let us start with the fights of the undefeated welterweight and pound for pound king, Floyd Mayweather Jr. starting from Mayweather vs. Hernandez to Mayweather vs. Marquez.


The next video shows the greatest fights of the vicious Ortiz beginning from his fight against Carlos Maussa.


By watching the video, I see how really vicious is Ortiz and the fight between these will be very explosive. Aside from this I also want an Ortiz vs. Maidana rematch. I think he deserves another fight to recover from that big lost.

Now what will be the appearance of the Mayweather vs. Ortiz fight well I think Ortiz will really strong punches to Mayweather and it will be an exciting exchange of counter punches. I am thinking right now if it still possible for Mayweather vs. Marquez after this because there's a possibility that Floyd can be defeated on this match-up. His opponent got a ferocious southpaw that might deliver a blazing end for him. I am really excited now.

By the way, later I will create a Mayweather-Ortiz poll / survey here so that you can cast your votes if who do you feel will win from this boxing event. Later guys!
