Comments Thread For: Insider Notebook: De La Hoya, Arum on Pacquiao vs Ortiz

[Carpe Diem]

gay la hoya is on crack if he thinks Ortiz will beat Pacquiao by KO in 6 rounds. I think his panties are cutting off circulation to his brain and that closet ****** needs to STFU when it comes to boxing.

Ortiz is more mexican than Kermit Cintron is puertorican, at least Ortiz really speaks spanish fluently. Cintron has a hard time speaking it.

[check hook]

lmao at arum saying ortiz isn't reallly isn't a mexican

Well Bob is talking ****e as per susual.........Ortiz is bilingual (he does speak Spanish) and those fans weren't watching for Berto. ODLH is right, he has Ortiz and Alvarez, they will both be the biggest PPV draws once Cotto, Mayweather and MP leave the sport......Arum and TR have to deal eventually. Right now he has the power because the number 1 draw is not aligned to anyone and he has number 2 and number 3 @ TR.

[koolttt]

Arum (Pacquiao's Daddy) wont let Pac fight someone fresh, young and hungry like Ortiz.

pac will win by ko ortiz is good but berta wasnt a top welter he never even fought a top welter ortiz is another vargas to me he can beat good fighters but will fall short against top fighters but arum will not make the fight ortiz should fight madaina and then khan bradley winner then fight mosley good paydays and building his confidence i think he can batter khan and beat bradley in a tough fight against madaina he kos him

pacroids will run out of old shot boxers to fight eventually.....then he'll have to fight a young in his prime fighter...then we'll see what's up.

its safe to say no GBP fighter will be fighting pac soon

Man, Arum and ODLH are something else. Arum saying Ortiz isn't really mexican and can't speak spanish. That's interesting considering Victors trainer was speaking in spanish to him in the corner during the Berto fight. Funny how he likes to downplay **** like this (who is Arum to say how 'Mexican' Ortiz is??!? WTF?), yet we all know Arum would be suddenly praising Ortiz's marketablility if he were to jump ship to TR (like how his tune changed about JMM when he was considering leaving GBP).

And Oscar... I love the way he chose to be in the U.K. with Khan, instead of being there for Ortiz in the biggest and most important fight of his career. Something tells me Oscar didn't have much confidence in Ortiz pulling out a win over Berto, especially when he chose to be with Khan half way across the world - at what everyone, including himself, considered to be a tune-up/stay busy fight at best - instead of showing his support to his fighter he says he can relate to the struggles he was going through.

They are both sickening.

For the record, what makes you think these young prime fighters could bring to the fight against the caliber of Pacquiao? Do you think being young and prime would be enough to beat Pac?

[Sugar Q]

It's funny *******s say Pac will win. Why not just accept the challenge? Ortiz is challenging him and now his promoter is also. This was always my point about Team Roid, they don't wanna fight Marquez, Ortiz, Martinez, and didn't wanna fight Berto, Bradley or even Shane until he loss so what in hell makes anyone think they really wanted to fight Floyd? You are clearly seeing why the PBF/Pac fight never came off.
