The wait is finally over, after 13 months of inactivity since fighting Sugar Shane Mosley, Floyd Mayweather appeared to announce that he will fight WBC Welterweight Champion Victor Ortiz on September 17, 2011 at an undisclosed location as of the moment.Some boxing writers or commentators suggested that Mayweather picked a young fighter who is not yet well equipped with the necessary experience to fight him. But I would disagree with such claim, i think that the Mayweather vs Ortiz match is a
good one considering that Ortiz is one of the fighters who I believe deserves a fight against Floyd. The other one is Sergio Martinez.

Moreover, the Mayweather vs Ortiz is better than the earlier proposed Mayweather vs Spadafora fight. Ortiz is a young fighter who will do his best to outclass the undefeated Floyd Mayweather Jr. Floyd’s decision to pick Ortiz somehow resembles the old Floyd’s style of picking opponents despite the risk involve such as the fight against Genaro Hernandez. But it was until Floyd experienced some stiff competition against Jose Luis Castillo that he decided to just play safe and look for low risk and high reward opponents.
