I'm going to download the Ortiz-Berto fight tonight. I missed it, just got off work.
From what I hear it was a hell of a fight. I'm surprised Ortiz won, I didn't think he had it in him. Props to Ortiz.
But, Mayweather is a total different animal than Berto is. There is nobody at WW right now, that has a chance to beat Mayweather besides Pac.
Saying all that, Ortiz is a legit tune up for Floyd. I like this fight. And, Floyd does like the WBC belt. He might go after this. I never thought Floyd would go after Berto because of the Al Haymon connection.
And, Ortiz being with GBP is a fight that can be made quite easily. However, the wildcard is GBP. Would they do this. I think Ortiz will jump at the opportunity no doubt. But, will GBP cash out on Ortiz? Or not that Ortiz seems rejuvenated try to make him into a star. Lets not forget that GBP put a lot of stock on Ortiz before the Maidana incident. Ortiz was suppose to be the next best thing. Will GBP move him in that direction or feed him to Floyd? I don't know that's a tough decision in GBP part.
Oh and Ortiz vs Mike Jones is not likely cuz' of Jones connection with Top Rank. And, the feud between Top Rank and GBP would not make that happen. However, Ortiz-Malignaggi be a fight that might happen is a safe fight for Ortiz since Malignaggi can't punch through paper bag and you have Ortiz vs the Khan-Bradley winner, however that might be a dangerous fight for Ortiz. And, if you going to give Ortiz a dangerous fight might as well feed him to Floyd and cash out instead of risking him losing to a lesser fighter for less money.
But, if they will start banking on Ortiz and try to make him a star again. Then really you have to give him safe fights. Against Malignaggi or the other weaker title holders. I will stay away from dangerous fights like the Khan-Bradley winner. That's a fight that Ortiz could lose. And, if you going to give him a fight that he could lose, then might as well have him fight Floyd. That would be a no brainer.
