Marcos Maidana Upsets Victor Ortiz in a Six Round War

[cosmico]

its all about heart

ortiz show that he didnt have the heart of a warrior. I know that there is alot of Cotto Haters here. But that's a warrior. fighting with a nasty cut since the third round he didnt quit and ortiz clearly did. Cant wait for Pac and Cotto.

@Joe Strong - I also didn't like the look of Ortiz after round 5. His corner threatened to stop it and there was no protest from him at all.

This NO MAS is not as unexpected as Duran vs Leonard. That was a shock. This one was merely disappointing because we really didn't know if Ortiz was championship stock or not.

Full credit goes to Maidana for getting off the canvas 3 times in front of a hostile crowd and getting it done.

Men I had big hopes on ortiz, he was clearly the better boxer, but he fought ****** as hell


Still cant believe he quitted, he wasnt that badly hurt!!!!!!!

Ortiz clearly the better boxer????
So why did he lose in 6 and get dropped like a simple empty bottle??

I hope you mean better technician,but the better boxer last night was Maidana,or maybe balls,smartness,will,heart and power aren't boxing qualities???

Wasn't that badly hurt??
Not sure...

I knew ortiz will lose,dude seems to be a good dude and is a good technician,but he was another US hypejob.

There is no upset out there,the journalist is a ******.
It's all about hype in USA.Biased and ignorant jouralists.
Maidana is a beast,Ortiz a green soft fighter who only fought in USA...A now soft area...

A quitter will always be a quitter. Being near Dela Hoya is so contagious that he transmitted the virus "Quitter" to Ortiz.

yeah, his corner was going to stop the fight and ortiz didn't say no... his heart wasn't in it since before that.

his corner knew he wasn't doing to right things to win the fight.

I think everyone just had high expectations for Ortiz. We saw Lumacaud quit geting counted out sitting on his asss against Arce but no one is giving him any ****. Ortiz is still only 22 and he made some mistakes. He should of boxed Maidana and should't of had a sluging fest with him though it was an exciting 6 rounds! If he comes back I'm sure he'll learn from the experience and be a little more patient and defensive.

Ortiz QUIT before the ref brought him to the doctor
