I think Floyd will be a little rusty in the first couple of rounds. A 16 month layoff will do that to anyone.
But, Floyd will warm up and once that happens, it's a sparring session from that point on.
Look, I know Ortiz was impressive when he beat Berto. BUT, you have to remember that Berto was one punch away from finishing that fight before Ortiz thew the punch from nowhere that put Berto on his a$$. Ortiz gets hit way too much and unless Pernell Whitaker is teaching him D for this fight, it's gonna be the same Ortiz.
And don't buy into Floyd telling you that he's coming straight ahead and will fight toe to toe. Floyd doesn't fight that way. He's gonna be the same sweet science professor that he's been for 15 years and will win this fight on the cards unless he can get Ortiz to fold like he did against Maidana. Don't forget, we've also seen Ortiz winning big only to check out and blow it like he did against Lamont Peterson. He's gotten a little cocky after that win over Berto. Kelly Pavlik got that way after KO'ing Jermain Taylor and thought he was gonna do the same to B-Hop and ended up getting embarrassed and still hasn't recovered from that.
IMO, Ortiz is not ready for this. If he tries to throw bombs, he's gonna get tattooed and will get beat down. If he fights smart and picks his shots, he may have some success.
Floyd by unanimous decision. I'm thinking 8 rounds to 4 with a knockdown or two.

Ortiz has a nasty habit of getting caught with right hand counters. That will be what does him in tonight.
Mayweather by KO late.
