Amir Khan stopped Victor Ortiz in 2 rounds in 2003

good fight against Khan vs. Ortiz

[Allucard]

there is a rumour that Henry Tillman beat Mike Tyson and in amateurs and then got destroyed in 1 round in Mike's comback fight

also i cant remember Tyrell Biggs having a stellar career ,allthough he beat Lennox Lewis

abdullaev beat Cotto in the Olympics ,Cotto beat him as a Pro

This really means nothing ,one of the ones that i can think of that did have a bearing was Mosley v Forrest

actually it means something if you beat them by ko.

This would be a very good fight. I doubt it will happen soon though because Ortiz isnt as famous as Khan is now. SO it wouldnt be that interesting for the promoters at this moment. The fight will most likely happen if both of them are world champion so that they can promote it as unification.

A year ago I would say that Ortiz would beat Khan because of the very poor defence of Khan way back then. But now that Khan is being trained by Roach I see him beating Ortiz. If you watch Khans latest fights you scan see his improved lateral movement. He never did that before. Now he actually does.

Didn't Calzaghe stop Chris Byrd in the ams? (which is to say the ams don't determine what happens in the pros)

[Alibata]

stopped him? sounds like bs to me, Ortiz would whoop him in the pros...

He is not a real boxing fan all he knows is Mexican and Pinoy boxers.

I bet Ortiz stops Khan in 2 rounds in the pros.....

The amaetuer game is completely different than the pro game. Taylor beat Pavlik in the amaetuers but look what happened in the pros. Ortiz would beat Khan in the pros you can take that to the bank.

A stoppage is a stoppage whether its ameuteurs or pros, its just the scoring and game is different, but a Ko is a KO. saying someone who lost on points in an amateur fight is gonna win is one thing, but someone who got knocked out is uterley riddiculous Amir Khan is ten times better and punches harder these days, Roach made Khan loads better, Ortiz has improved but I think Khan has improved more. I give Ortiz seven rounds before he is on the canvass max

"Not a lot of people know that I boxed Ortiz in the amateurs and I stopped him in the second round. I beat him in the 2003 Junior Olymipc Games in Louisiana, and I remember the whole American team coming up to and saying, 'You're not going to beat this guy.' But the guy didn't hit me once. He was the number-one guy and going into the fight he was unbeaten for so long, so the odds were completely against me."

-Amir Khan September 2008 issue of The Ring

Did anyone else know about this?

We are at a loss for words!!!

Ortiz already adressed this comment. He stated the fight was STOPPED BECAUSE OF THE POINTING SYSTEM.

Yes he lost, but it was never a TKO, KO or anything along those lines. Ill try to pull up the video

Nationality doesn't mean anything, If your born in Puerto Rico and move to America when your 5 and live there the rest of your life... guess what? Your Puerto Rican. Ethenticity means more.

Makes no difference where your raised, who your raised by etc..

By that logic all yanks are actually European.
