I have a feeling that Berto vs Ortiz will NOT be made...

[tito_bandito]

they havnt sorted a venue yet because they want to see how much attention it will draw IMO. i think the fight is defiantely on.... i can see where your coming from though, i has had very little publicity so far

I have a feeling that it's either not on and it was just publicity for a future fight OR they will push the fight a couple months...

Ortiz got a gift draw against Lamont Peterson. Ortiz also cheated on the scales in that fight.

Andre Berto would be much too dangerous for Victor Ortiz.

Ortiz got a gift draw.

Boy, you are thick.

Ortiz will just quit once he gets jabbed in the mouth again.

???????????????????

I have Berto beating Ortiz as well but a gift draw? Ortiz won that fight, I was surprised at the draw.

Ok I just heard from camp Ortiz that Berto is the one who has NOT signed the fight yet. The contract was given to him about three weeks ago and he hasn't signed it...

I think that what's gonna happen is that there will be some BS about the venue. Negociations will be off, and Ortiz will headline against another 147 pounder on April 16th. Managers always have a back up opponent. I have a feeling that Koltelnik or Senchenko will be in line for Ortiz on April 16th. This Ortiz vs Berto negotiation was probably a measurement to see how many people are interested in the fight; should they make it a PPV. They let the fans advertise for it. It's already a month before fight night and there still isn't a venue or press conferrence? This is total BS...Promoters wanted to know if this is a sellable fight for future refferences....Dibella and GBP are putting their cash cows on the line for a non PPV fight? Nah I don't see it happening now...

no matter how you spin it, berto-ortiz is not a ppv fight. gpb and dibella can figure this out all they want...they can hire somebody to make a survey or **** like that but no ppv will come out of it. and no, they're not cashcows...they're overpaid but not cashcows.
