Jim Rome Weighs in on Mayweather/Ortiz (video)

Rome is disappointing with his selling out.

The Vargas and Morales fights were good but the rest of the fights sucked.

Well, he's about right.

Money has been paid to many journalist or Ortiz rubs them the wrong way. I don't think Ortiz is going away, much like people expected Marquez to go away after his second fight with Pac. Ortiz just going to get better. Should be interesting. Down the line (cause Floyd isn't giving Ortiz an immidiate rematch) people will be calliing for Floyd vs. Ortiz II. Wait and see...

This is one of the first 100% objective even handed reviews of the Mayweather/Ortiz fight I've heard.

Why are you guys buying PPV fights anyway? unless those two gets in the ring i dont see the reason why you guys are paying to see them beat up on over match opponents.

Jim Rome was right on just about everything he said. Especially about the fans being robbed again on a ppv. That is what makes me upset about the fight it was yet another unsatisfying ppv. Although it would be hard to find a fight to justify the $60 ppv.
