    Well if GBP has options on Peterson if he wins, then that makes GBP not having that much confidence on Ortiz.

            Matter of fact what top prospects have they had?
            This whole Top Rank are over protected of their prospect is not true at all...They just know how to build up fighters unlike GBP.
            Your comment kinda makes you come off as a TR d!cksucker, GBP yeah doesn't know how to build their fighters (like TR does by feeding them tomato cans until they the prospects themselves are ripe for an aging veteran to sacrifice for a belt). Ortiz got pitted against a puncher in Maidana, Jacobs went against a crafty EE fighter, Khan was pressured and ultimately took the fight with the Maidana, Ortiz is fighting a guy whose only loss is to arguably the best 140 lber out there. And had Peterson chose to outbox Bradley, the fight couldve been won or alot closer.

            Top Rank does the same thing instead they only pit their fighters...get ready....WITH THEIR OWN FIGHTERS! Only TR fighters fight TR fighters so if 1 fcks up they can cash out on the other one, quit suckin that TR teet. Fckini double standards man I swear. Marg-Cotto, Pac-Cotto, Why didn't they have Pac fight Mosley? Why they didnt have Juanma fight Caba or John? Why didnt they try to make Soto-JMM? TR does the same **** , its just called "fighting someone under your own promotion".

                Pacquiao took up Cotto at a catch weight. Roach: "I told Mosley he is just too good" people cant always be confident in a sport where any thing can happen. not even the best.

                    It wouldnt surprise me in the least bit to see Ortiz get beat by Peterson, and IMO it would be a easier fight for him to face Maidana. 3-1 betting favorites just mean more people bet on Ortiz to win than they do on Peterson. That has more to do with Ortiz being the bigger name than it does on there ability.

                    There is a reason they chose Maidana the first time, it's because technique wise, he isn't good.
                    who is boxing in the video that's part of your signature? he's all over the place. I'd like to youtube it.

                      catchweights are for making fights between 2 guys from 2 different divisions.

                      so you want 2 see the mosley fight then?
