[TredKiller]

everyones talkin about how ortiz will bounce back, he's still young, ex.

but give props to maidana, that motha ****a came to fight!!!

he new he was being set up as an opponite
for an HBO prospect hype job, but he aint give a ****,
he would have ko'd ortiz if ortiz hadent quit in that round,

he looked great, i think he's a good fighter,
even tho he got knocked down, he never
really looked hurt.

c'mon show some love to the winner

Yea thats a good point. He showed very good power and an enormous amount of heart. If Ortiz had that much heart, he probably would have won

Ortiz made the mistake of brawling with this guy. He could have won by sticking to boxing.

EL Chino was good tonight. Thought going into the fight that Ortiz was going to roll over him and early on it seemed that way until he landed that right hand that about put Ortiz out. Maidana got back up after those three KD's and kept coming. Gotta give him respect not giving in and really in the end just wanting it more than Ortiz. Props to Maidana.

Every fighter get's respect from me. However Maidana is an ok fighter, excellent power, but needs to work on his boxing skills. He could be good enough if he works on that.

yep add some defence, and improve his footwork, and he could be really good
