Mayweather vs Ortiz HBO Face Off Promo Video

By Admin // Mayweather vs Ortiz // No Comments

Of all the “Face Off” promos we’ve seen, this one looks like it’s shaping up to be the most scripted and goofy. Neither man can really help it — both love to act, but clearly weren’t part of their high school’s drama club, and have never done any community theater. But they are confident in their abilities, and willing to go the extra mile to put emphasis on a single line or point.

For instance, I like how Victor Ortiz holds up his index finger to hammer home his quote, “Not this one.”

But let me tell you something. (Serious business.) When I was nine years old, I always knew that someday I would see this “Face Off” promo for Victor Ortiz, who was five at the time, defending his welterweight belt against Floyd Mayweather Jr, who was 15. I just knew it. The wind spoke to me, as it did to King Terenas Menethil II when he named his son Arthas. I was also in the forests of Lordaeron when I felt this come upon me, as Terenas was.
