Mayweather vs. Ortiz: 3 Reasons Ortiz Will Stun the World

Everybody in the boxing world expects Floyd “Money” Mayweather to dispatch of Victor Ortiz in Saturday’s highly anticipated bout.

They cite Mayweather’s undefeated record and his insane confidence. They cite his experience and quickness.

Well, that’s not telling the whole story. There are numerous key factors that give Ortiz more than a puncher’s chance to shock the world.

Here are the factors that will eventually give Ortiz the win.

Mayweather Rust

The last time Mayweather fought was way back on May 1, 2010. That means it’s been over 500 days since his last fight.

Think about how many days you have gone to work in the last 500 days…now think about taking the next 500 days off. You're telling me that first day back isn’t going to be really rough? You’re not going to need at least a week to get back in the swing of things?

It’s going to be very interesting to see how Mayweather performs once the bell rings and he takes that first punch.

Ortiz Lands the Big One

Ortiz has 22 knockouts in his 29 career victories because he has one of the most powerful punches in recent memory.

If he can land a killer uppercut on an unsuspecting Mayweather, this match will be a quick one.

Floyd better be extremely concerned with this potential situation.

Mayweather’s Lack of Focus

How hard did Floyd prepare for this fight?

Watch HBO’s 24/7 and you would think he’s been training very hard in the past few weeks.

Can’t dispute that, but how long has he been doing it?

Considering he hangs out with 50 Cent, Flo Rida and Ray J regularly, how serious is he taking this fight?

Ortiz is a 24-year-old up-and-comer that certainly doesn’t have Mayweather’s respect. Has Mayweather overlooked his opponent? Has he already started to think about a potential fight with Manny Pacquiao?

Tons of question marks surround Mayweather’s focus and preparation heading into Saturday night.
