Why the hell does Ortiz/Salita/Khan deserve title shots?

Ortiz deserve a title shot after he KO Maussa in 1 round!
I agree, Ortiz deserves a title shot, but perhaps not Khan and certainly not Salita.
Salita has never defeated a top 100 light welterweight, and has struggled against low-level clubfighters.

Originally posted by Silencers View PostArnaoutis was supposed to be that guy and he blew him out which was why it was so impressive, it's not like Ortiz hasn't gone rounds before, Emmanuel Clottey stretched him to 10, he's been the distance before, he's fought the fellow prospects, the gatekeepers and the experienced veterans, the next logical step is either a fight against a top contender or a title shot, he's killing 2 birds with one stone by fighting Maidana, who is a top contender and he's fighting him in an interim title fight so it's fine with me and the fight should be really good.
I think that overall, tites are too easy to get in boxing.

I think that titles holders have the obligation to unify. If you arent ready for that, you dont need to have a belt. Do you think ortiz is ready for that? i mean, he can still make a name for himself without a title so i say he should get some names under his belt before he start calling himself champion.

I think Ortiz crossed from top prospect to serious contender when he blew out Arnaoutis and I think he is ready to hold a title, he might not be ready for the elite like Pacquiao but he is ready for the Kotelniks of 140 IMO and maybe even the Urangos.
I agree that titles are too easy to get nowadays, maybe 20 or 30 years ago he'd need more time to develop but he's ready for it in today's world of boxing IMO.
