Comments Thread For: Berto-Ortiz Inching Closer For Khan-McCloskey Double

[flint]

just keep the fights coming.both guys are under pressure to perform and win this fight based on what happend in their last fights.this could be a good one.

[sicko]

thats is a decent Double Header, glad to see McCloskey will get a chance to fight on HBO, he is a tough guy and he could give Khan one hell of a fight because of his toughness even though I think Khan SHOULD Win


As for Berto vs Ortiz...Berto won't get credit even if he wins so I don't see the point of this fight, I guess it can help get Berto EXPOSURE...but I think this fight is Shane Mosley vs Fernando Vargas all over again, either Berto via UD or he stops Ortiz late

Berto is a much better fighter then Peterson, he is faster, quicker and more has much more Power, so if Berto land those counter rights like Peterson was able to do so, it won't be a long fight, I think GBP is pushing this kid too soon, they are going to RUIN Ortiz, he should either be fighting Peterson or Maidana again

GBP looks DESPERATE to build a Fighter that is a Draw and is trying to SPEED their development up so they can hurry up and become stars but I think they will end up ruining their young fighters by trying to push them into big fights TOO SOON!

GBP are idiots. their matchmakers suck. ortiz is asking for a catchweight. even if he beats berto, he's just gonna run back to 140 lbs. ortiz/berto is one of the ******est fights ever.

I rather see Khan Vs Berto at 140

[Phil Ivey]

They're waiting on Berto's responce Ortiz already said yes to it...He wants people to forget about the Maidana fight by taking on name opponents...I have a hunch that he's aiming to knock Berto out...

You might wanna add Holt as well, that was disappointing.

If Floyd can fit into welterweight, I don't see why Ortiz can't as well. Physically he may seem better at WW than JWW now, and he is a better opponent than Adyin. But, I still pick Berto to win by TKO in 7 rounds or less.

should be an entertaining fight, looking forward to it

berto-ortiz in UK?

[Slevin]

Would love to see this fight. Ortiz is always exciting to watch.

This will be a good entertaining fight but ortiz is gonna get his ass whipped. Berto is no joke, he is abnormally fast and has power. If he fights with more aggression than he normally shows he could knock ortiz out in style. Ortiz has good tools but know one has taught him defence, a little like devon alexander he is just way too open, I see a mid-rounds stoppage for berto
