He could have put this guy out anytime he wanted, but I don't even think he knew how. I mean what the **** was up with all that awkward forward movement!? He'd come walkin in sloppy with his hands all over the ****in place. But I knew he had a left and right hook, but I think it's obvious now that's all he has, plus he was eatin Maidana's right hand since the first round. It's crazy cause I watched a lot of Ortiz' fights, and he really didn't look like he had that diverse of an arsenal at all. It was always the same punches from him. Vargas fought the same way, but he had far more defensive savvy and it didn't make that many mistakes with his feet at all. Ortiz looked like he was trippin over himself, walkin in throwin low punches, and Maidana would just come right over the top with Ortiz's chin stickin out with a bullseye on it. I don't know, I think Ortiz has the strength and speed to be a fighter, but he's just not a fighter. He seems like too nice and cool of a guy, I mean in the last round he goes out to touch gloves and Maidana just puts leather in his face lmao, that **** said a lot. There's nothin wrong with that though, if he can have more fun outside of the ring than maybe he should call it a career. I mean Ortiz was the bigger guy, stronger guy, and he had absolutely no answer for anything once Maidana started to have success. lol That's not a good sign at all...
And what the **** was up with exploiting his upbringing? Like shovin that **** down everyones throats everytime he's on TV? Everyone has problems ranging from family problems, to any other kind of problems. Now Is it just me or aren't you suppose to keep that **** within your own family? Since Oscar, I think if you're a good lookin Mexican-American kid with skills in boxing, the first thing they're gonna do is exploit the **** out of you lol. But you gotta be able to back it up. I'm thinkin as short lived as the Mexican-American boxing scene was with Oscar and Vargas, fighters from Mexico, guys who dig the dirt out of their nails and master soo many clever punches and their own styles, they'll continue to produce more thorough fighters. lol These kids in the states get GUBAR'd (gassed up beyond any recognition) and end up with no discipline or hunger.
Anyways, my prediction for Ortiz is that he won't fight for a couple years or so, then he'll want to come back, but I can't see him actually bein that improved as a fighter when he comes back. I mean he could come back improved, he's got the strength and speed, he just needs to master his own body and find what punches are his best and how to set them up with feints etc etc, instead of fightin like a mindless bully. But the actual chances of that happening are slim. lol It was fun watchin him while it lasted though.
