Does Ortiz convince you that he has heart by fighting Berto?

    I have always felt that Ortiz is the potential dangerman in the LWW division with a lot of potential upside but because of the mental emotional issues of his upbringing has underperformed recently. He is not firing on all cylenders right now and needs to get some momentum before he takes on top challenges again. I had a feeling Alexander had bitten off more than he can chew with Bradley and I feel the same with the Berto fight
    GBP seem to be be giving a sink or swim approach to Ortiz but not Khan and right now Ortiz needs more help.

      Not at all. It shows he is willing to test himself, but if he goes out and shows no heart in the ring, then him taking the fight means nothing about his heart. Definitely a winnable fight for Ortiz, we'll see how he responds to most people counting him out at this point.

        He's not a duck, he's been in the ring with some good fighters. But I don't think he has much heart. In some of the videos I've seen a lot of people say that he just doesn't like to get hit. I guess he just doesn't have a warrior's heart. He's a good fighter though and will win a world title some day, hopefully sooner rather than later (i.e. against Berto).

          i get the impression this guy knows people around him are dissapointed...he seems a fairly bright kid and must have known GBP were banking on turning him into a superstar....after the Peterson fight when he is at the post fight presser, Oscar DLH is listening in to him talk to the media and looks so dissapointed and non-interested in what **** excuses he is making about why he didnt win...

          i get the feeling Ortiz is trying to make up for the Maidana fight still and is doing things to please others when his head really isn't ready yet...i could be totally wrong, but thats how i see things...the kid is putting on a front, trying to be the hero he was meant to be, but in reality he keeps coming up short, but rather then take a step back and try and get his head together, he trys to please others around him but i'm not buying it.....

            I can see Ortiz winning this fight because he can if he decides to make it a technical war...Berto will be willing to exchange to which favors Ortiz...but does Ortiz wanna get into all that?

              All these PROFESSIONAL FIGHTERS have heart man, they are just at different levels.

                Not only did Ortiz lose, and lose badly to Maidana. He destroyed his reputation, thanks to his idotic comments. Asking for a rematch against Maidana would speak volumes of him.

                GBP should invest in someone else, I doubt Ortiz is the same animal.

                  Berto beats up on another smaller guy,




                  but I'll be supporting Vic.
