    MIght as well move up in weight if you can't make it or become a vegan and be able to work on the gameplan than cutting weight in training camp.

        What exactly is Ortiz bringing to the table? Ortiz and Ennis should be fighting each other.. From what I've seen both get hit too much.. The only real legit welterweight out of these guy's is Crawford anyway, the rest of these dudes should be at 154lbs..

          He's a big welter but no bigger than Spence/ Ennis and dont recall him looking severely dehydrated at any of his previous way ins. Could be the switch up and search of a new trainer that possibly caused his weight cutting regimen. Hopefully he can stick around long enough at welter for potential fights with Spence,Crawford,Ennis or even Thurman as there's not many great opponents at 154 for him.

            Keep telling yourself that. Ortiz is easy work for both of them.

              Likewise for ennis?at his size he probably got 2-3 more fights at 147 before making weight gets hazardous. Spence maybe 1 after the ugas fight. Age metabolism sitting idle injuries and pre injuries you walked at 170 with a stalky canelo like frame. Obvious spence boots n ortiz walk at 170-175. Theyre junior middleweights to middlewights fighting at welter look at brook for similar muslce build and walk weight

                  He's right, Ortiz ain't making 147, for a michael mckinson fight... but for a title shot or a top welter he damn sure will.

                  It's not like Golden Boy gotta stable of junior middles for Ortiz to fight. If anything PBC's control 154 is even more entrenched than it is at 147, and he can't force a mandatory without a belt. I think Ortiz has to stay at welter but he can't be fighting the Mckinson's of the world
