Victor, who became popular after defeating the undefeated Andre Berto in April of this year, is predicted to start strong in the forthcoming Mayweather vs Ortiz fight. He is predicted to be a patient boxer in the first and second round and will be all out in the following rounds. He expects to win by stoppage because he knows if the fight goes the distance his chance of winning is very small.
"The simple truth is, Mayweather has the difficult fight, not me. I'm going to destroy him, little by little, round by round, until the knockout," Ortiz told Edward Couich. "Mayweather is not someone that I had respect for when I was a kid. He was never one of my favorites. I knew that the day they put me in against him, I would finish his [undefeated] run." as written by Jhonny Gonzalez of BoxingScene.com.
"I think Mayweather has a few defeats already but they aren't on his record. Jose Luis Castillo and Oscar De La Hoya beat him. There have been a few [fighters] who had him hurt. Yes he was good and he was good at 130. But the day I arrived to 147, he was finished."
On the Mayweather vs Ortiz fight night, it will be the first time in 16 months since Floyd fought atop the squared circle. "Vicious" Victor Ortiz and his trainer Danny Garcia believes this will play a role in the fight. Based on the tale of the tape, there are no significant advantages over the other except for the young age of Ortiz.
"I'm not thinking about the ten years we have on Mayweather [24 to 34-years in age]. But when people are at the age of 23 to 26, they are at their strongest. Once you pass 30 to 33-years-old, you start to decline," Garcia said. "We're not thinking about his 16 months of inactivity, but obviously it's going to affect him. [Inactivity] affects everyone. Why wouldn't it affect him?"
Based on the 30-day pre-fight weigh-in of Mayweather and Ortiz, Floyd has the edge. He is only 2-lbs over the maximum welterweight limit of 147-lbs compared to Ortiz who needs to lose over 10 pounds.
This will be the first time Victor fights in a mega-event. He is now considered as Boxing's Newest Star while the undefeated Floyd Mayweather is considered as Boxing Superstar. Because both are stars, the Ortiz vs Mayweather fight is dubbed as Star Power: Floyd Mayweather vs Victor Ortiz.
On Saturday, September 17th, Mexican Descent Victor Ortiz will do everything to knock Floyd Mayweather out. He wants to pull the biggest upset in the history of boxing and be hailed as the first boxer to defeat boxing icon Floyd "Money" Mayweather Jr.
