Floyd Mayweather's Girlfriend: Shantel Jackson Will Have to Console a Beaten Man

Shantel Jackson is going to be in unfamiliar territory after tonight's fight. She is going to be engaged to a fighter with a loss on his record. She is engaged to one Mr. Floyd "Money" Mayweather Jr., and "Money" has never tasted defeat in the ring.

That is about to change for the 34-year-old boxer. Floyd Mayweather is set to step into the ring on Saturday against Victor Ortiz. Mayweather is a heavy favorite in this bout, but I believe he is headed for a loss.

Mayweather is an aging fighter that hasn't fought in over 15 months. There is no amount of training that Mayweather can undergo that will find him on top of his game over what promises to be a long bout. Age has undoubtedly stripped Mayweather at least a split second in his astonishing quickness.

This is going to be a huge blow for a fighter that has attained his dominance in large part to his stellar defense. Ortiz will need to be accurate with his punches early and work Mayweather's body.

All of this will take its toll on Mayweather, and the later this fight goes, the more the advantage will go to the younger Ortiz.

At some point, he will be throwing punches against a tired Mayweather and he will find an opening to send Mayweather to the canvas.

This result will not only hand Mayweather a loss, but it will crush his bargaining power for the super fight between he and Manny Pacquiao.

With a loss to Ortiz, Mayweather will cease to be thought of as a legitimate threat to Pacquiao and just another opponent that Mayweather will dominate.

A loss in this fight will cost Mayweather countless millions of dollars. It will also catapult him right out of the boxing spotlight that Mayweather has been feverishly trying to maintain, even while he was not fighting.

Floyd Mayweather will be returning home to his fiance not only beaten in this fight, but also in the long-term prospects of his career.
