    Really don't see where it's a win win situation other than the pay check and more fame.

    Truth is, this will not be a huge upset if Ortiz won, it would be the biggest upset in recent years.

    This won't be an upset on a scale of Tyson-Douglas, more like an upset on the scale of Jones-Tarver II. A favored aging fighter who has already shown signs of decline in recent fights, losing to the hungrier fighter/underdog.

    Skies the limit if Ortiz wins, he'll get to fight Manny Pacquiao after.

    Sky is not the limit if he loses. But Pacquiao might still fight him even off a loss cause that's how he rolls.

    But, I don't see it as a win-win situation for Ortiz.
    Really Kev,if he loses,like U said,he'll probably gets Pacman.That's winning bro,period.

      Floyd
      Martinez.
      Martinez was the only 1 who beat a young,prime fighter in years.(The Punisher).

      B-Hop did,now Floyd is following,boxing needs this bro.
      Martinez is the only one actually that fits that criteria, excusing the Barker fight which I will excuse as a gimme after a good run. Hopkins hasn't been, Floyd hasn't been, Pacquiao sure as hell hasn't been. Props to Hopkins for fighting Pascal, props to Floyd for fighting Ortiz. Let's see what they do after before we start proclaiming them as fighters who take on young prime challengers all the time.

        I agree but for a totally different reason. History has shown us that the last 4 mayweather opponents have lost and gone on to fight the 2nd highest grossing boxer in pacq.

        Ortiz loses in his highest profile fight and he wins another shot at big bucks. watch and see!
