Boxing odds and expert predictions are unanimous on this one ? ?Vicious? Victor Ortiz will suffer his third career defeat in 33 fights at the hands of Floyd Mayweather Jr., a fine crafty pugilist who is undefeated in 41 fights and held multiple titles in five weight divisions before his initial, self-imposed hiatus after the Dela Hoya fight.
Analysts and bookmakers peg Mayweather?s overall superiority in boxing skills, defense, high ring acumen and experience as the fighter?s essential assets against the very hungry and driven lad from Garden City, Kansas.
Looking at the big picture, it is almost certain that Ortiz has little to no chance of beating Mayweather. But boxing can indeed pull a lot of rabbits out of that hat and come fight night, Ortiz just might pull a few things here and there and do the unpredictable. Allow this writer to go against the grain and cite some reasons why Ortiz will win.
