Ortiz is barely a JWW anymore. anymore fights at 140 and hes draining himself. he has the height and frame todo well at 147. his has very good power and skill. IMO Berto will lose againest Ortiz or even get KOed.
Ortiz > Berto.
Ortiz WILL not be the smaller fighter come fight night and Bertos speed wont be much when hes suddenly getting hit with Ortizs shots. Mark my words. great fight to get ortiz in the spotlight and rebound. take down HBOs poster boy and replace it with himself.
I'd enjoy seeing the bout. The winner, either way, moves forward and we know what we need to know about the loser, really. I wouldn't mind seeing the fight.
Personally, I think Berto takes it at this point. I'd know if I was right, right after the first round. It could reasonably go either way.
Lamont's best work came in rounds 6-8 when he would clinch Ortiz on the inside, and stick and counter Ortiz on the outside.
Berto will be stronger than Ortiz in the clinches (If Lamont was, Berto will be). And Berto's hands speed (faster than Lamont's IMO) will be able to capitalize on any mistakes Ortiz makes.
If Ortiz had a decent jab, and knew how to counter punch he would have a good chance. But he doesn't. And if Garcia was legit about Ortiz's tendancy to to quit after he gets hit, getting hit with Berto's lighting fast hands will definitely make him quit. Imagine Berto's lightning fast straight rights, or a well timed upper-cut. It may not knock Ortiz out, but I'd bet he wouldn't want to feel no more of them.
A more like prediction is Berto sticking and clinching his way to a decision.
But u do have to commend that 140lb division. They r fighting top guys
ortiz fights like a pussy nowadays
if he'd press the fight like he used to do pre-maidana panda would pick him but he's too chickensh1t to even try
sadly this might be the best win on berto's resume to date :nonono:
I'm definitely not a Berto fan, but I can't see him losing to Ortiz. Berto is a better fighter than Peterson, and he just gave Ortiz all he can handle.
i honestly feel ortiz had a bad night. and the fact hes putting on more weight after fights didnt help him. it gave him a bigger size advantage, but im sure hes not used to it yet and shouldnt even be at 140 anymore. he looked sluggish cause of it imo. i could be wrong, but i really think ortiz can beat berto. i honestly dont remember berto in with a live puncher with decent skill. and collazo had berto on the brink at times, nd collazo isnt even known for being a puncher..
That's possible.
But Ortiz is going to have to let his hands go.
I don't think Ortiz can outbox Berto.
He's going to have to pressure him.
Good luck to Ortiz.
I think Berto would beat Ortiz. Its a decent opponent though, something Berto is lacking recently. I'd be fine with this fight.
I hate to simplify things but Berto is a much better fighter than Peterson.
He literally does everything better than Lamont.
Ortiz has a puncher's chance.

this fight isnt as bad as people make it seem. Berto likes tobe macho, if he trades with Ortiz, hell be on the losing end. Ortiz can really crack, and his skill is under rated at times. its just his heart and mentality he needs to man up.
I agree, but those aren't easy fixes.
