Ortiz has a better right hook. Even though he was getting clocked by it he was better off not getting clocked by Ortiz's RIGHT hook.
Either way he was screwed. All you had to do is watch Berto vs Lefties.
Collazo
Quintana
Ortiz
They all landed the left hand when they felt like it. This wasnt a surprise.Comment

I don't know that it mattered. Ortiz hurt him with both hands. But yeah, he should circle away from the power hand.
I was more amazed at way too many people talking in his corner. The trainer is the only one who should be talking. Not the cut man. Not his brother (who was being nothing but a distraction, STFU)Comment

Berto's corner was fkn horrible... just a mess... there were like 3 people talking and screaming at him between rounds, his trainer wasn't giving him much technical advice other then, "your a beast, your a beast" or "show them what you're made of"... his corner was a disgraceComment

just like bernard hopkins was tweeting during the fight, berto needs a professional corner, they were weak and provided no real instruction. i don't think that berto would've followed the best most perfect instructions if they were laid out for him though last night, he looked flat and had no rhythm, he looked confused and probably wasn't expecting ortiz to be as mentally strong and determined...... berto must have been on boxingscene threads reading about the perception of ortiz.
one thing is for sure, ortiz gained his credentials back, he showed he has a fighters heart when getting dropped........ i was rooting for berto, but was happy to see ortiz get his manhood back, so to speak. all the fights of ortiz leading up to this fight, didn't prove anything, this fight PROVED he has what it takes.
i really think that the weight affected ortiz response to maidana's punches at 140, he clearly proved he was able to handle the power and had better recuperative skills this time around. being drained from making weight, punches take on a whole new feelComment
