The win by Victor Ortiz over Andre Berto in a welterweight title fight last month left quite an impression on Shane Mosley.
"I was very excited for Victor Ortiz," said Mosley, who no doubt got to know Ortiz while the two were at Golden Boy Promotions together; Mosley has since left.
"Very happy that he accomplished that goal, won his world title at welterweight and he beat Andre Berto. Nobody thought he could because they thought he didn't have heart."
Mosley said Ortiz more than showed that against Berto.
"He proved everybody wrong that he had heart," he said. "He proved that he was willing to fight. He proved a lot of people wrong and I take my hat off to him."
