We all know he's become the flavor of the month after his win over Berto. Now he's fighting floyd and fans are pointing out how young, strong and prime Ortiz is but we need to face some home truths about this guy:
1. He doesn't have a strong chin, he's been down many times.
2. He will quit if he's pressured enough, he couldn't handle the crude Maidana.
3. Even though he is built like a ww he fought most of his career around 140. In fact he has never weighed in at 147 the ww limit. He is still virtually untested at ww.
If floyd wins which I fully expect to happen it will be a decent win over a decent opponent I'll go on record and give him props for that right now. However, I can't take Ortiz that seriously as a threat given his many glaring flaws. That being said besides Manny this fight is about as good as floyd can get at ww I just hope people don't get carried away with his probable win.
