    give ortiz a break, he's still got a promising future

    just because people were willing to say he'd beat pacquiao right now everyone is making fun of the kid, he's 22 younger than me! so give the guy a break, he fought the wrong fight and he will be back stronger than ever.

    i don't know how you can hate the boy either when he talks as well as he does, very charismatic and hopeful for his future.

    He should have actually won, but he fought like a moron. He'd win the rematch if their is one though.

      I think he'll come good. A defeat isn't the end of the world.

      A prospect should use a defeat as a learning curve to improve and get better. The same thing happened to Khan. Unfortunately for world class prospects like those guys, there defeats get magnified because of the 'Overhyped' tag they get labeled with.

      People need to remember that guys like Ortiz and Khan are still learning their trade.

      As a Khan fan however, i do find this whole thing ironic. A little humble pie is needed for the guys who slagged off Khan rotten for his defeat, while at the same time those guys where saying Ortiz was a future P4P#1 who would KO Pacquiao.

                  Well said, also the people who are saying he is a "*****"... they should go in the ring against him themselves and see how long they last... no professional Boxer can be considered a ***** they have balls to get in the ring in the first place.
