Fernando Vargas, it's almost eiry to me. Young chicano guy being brought up fast. Similar nicknames "Ferocious" "Vicious". Both have great power, good skills, and great finishing ability. Only difference is I think Ortiz will be the more skilled of the two.

I'll go with dans on this one,and I think he has got the tools to be even better than Vargas.I'm really excited about this guy.

Vargas; i just hope his management learn a lesson about bringing him up a little slower than they did w/ Vargas. I wanna see a fight with juanma lopez in the future

I think he will be better than both in every aspect of the game...When they ask who would be better Prime for prime between Vargas and Ortiiz or even DLH Ortiz will take the cake....No questions asked...

Really? I see Ortiz moving up to welterweight eventually. I think the highest Juanma will go is 135, 140 is stretching it.

I think it's a little premature to make assumptions like that. Ten years ago you could have said similar things about Vargas, but then boxing happens.
