      It comes with the territory. You cant have it both ways, be a badass or fight like Mayweather.

      I enjoy the style of Ortiz. But when you fight like that, you better be able to to take a Trinidad-Mayorga style beating and then laugh. Ortiz doesnt have it in him to make it the hard way. He will never be elite.

      I just cant stand fake tough guys while the real ones get trashed.

          He can come again, he's a good young fighter with time on his side.

          That said he wont fufill the expectations of the guys on here, over rated from the start

            I hope you guys are right. I like his style. But over the years ive noticed a few things. Taking punishment isnt something you can learn. Its in them or its not. If I could make a prop bet if Ortiz will ever make it big i would. He will never be elite. And he wasnt even fighting a grade A opponent tonight. The elite fighters wil be even more hard on him.

                    I think more is expected from a world champion like cotto than a green prospect like ortiz.

                      True, but he was getting repeatedly clubbed in the back of the head, while the ref stood idly by doing nothing about it. Its hard to continue when you are in the process of getting G-Manned.
