I think Ortiz is great for Robert's training, we know Robert isn't that great with defense but Ortiz wants to break you, idk if Ortiz can learn more defense at this stage it seems to me its him not being patient early, Reynoso would be good for him try to calm him and box but to me thats not going really well for Oscar Valdez its good for him to learn defense but dude seems like he's not meshing well with Reynoso, same happened with Andy but its Andy first fight with Reynoso, I wonder if theres another reason for Reynosos camp (pop)pularity)
sounds like Ortiz is disappointed about Robert choosing Franco but I think Robert was right on this one choosing Francos fight, don't know what difference Robert would of made that night, Ortiz seems to be in a rush to finish fights early gets careless at least in his last two fights he hasn't been boxing patiently behind a jab dude its 12 round fight chill, after the 2-3 rounds he realizes this and now boxes well and the finish comes just a few rounds after, maybe is the hometown pressure that gets to him a bit

I really wish he kept fighting afterwards so we could have seen his new style vs the premier welterweights. I think he would have beat prime ThurmanComment

This is the effect of having 1 star fighter and everyone wants to jump on the bandwagon instead of sticking with who got them to this point. End of the day, nobody who switched to Reynoso has had canelo type success, just like nobody who switched to Roach has had Pac success and nobody who switched to Hunter has had Ward success.Comment

You always want to be your trainer's main guy. But Garcia's reasons for being with Franco that night make sense.
I don't think Ortiz is great defensively and don't see that changing in a big way. He's an offensive monster who is gonna beat you up and grind you down. I like the idea of him being with an attack-minded coach but it's his career, as long as he's gets back in the ring soon and none of this slows his momentum.Comment

Yeah that was a real feather in Robert Garcia’s cap. The whole association with ESNEWS was bull**** though. Helped the gym grow but impossible to take seriously a guy that hangs around with that guyComment

Come to think about it, he reminds me of some posters on here. Glorified casual boxing fans.Comment
