Khan NEVER KOed Ortiz !!!! Get it right.....

Nope
Khan didn't quit
The bottom line is, when it got tough Vic quit, showing his mental weakness
He restored a bit of pride in my eyes in the Berto fight
But still, you mention Ortiz to most fans and I'd bet the first thing they mention is him quitting against MaidanaComment

that's another misconception technically the doctor stopped the fight because of the cut now you could **** on Ortiz post fight comments that's fair game but Ortiz got up from the knock downComment

I watched the fight, and what I saw was Victor Ortiz practically waving the fight off himself, before the doctor was called onto the apron
Then we get onto the post fight interview, ''I don't deserve to be getting hit like this.'' Really?? Watch that interview and look at Oscar's face in the background, he knew what was up, and that was that Victor QUIT. Plain and simple, he was looking for a way out WHILE WINNING THE FIGHT
That to me shows mental weaknessComment

that part I agree with and since you watched that fight then you seen how the cut was bothering Ortiz and how he wasn't seeing the right at all in the 6th roundI watched the fight, and what I saw was Victor Ortiz practically waving the fight off himself, before the doctor was called onto the apron

Ortiz does have some weakness and is happy to let the fight go to the cards if he doesn't finish them early, he pretty much let Lamont Peterson off the hook and stopped pressuring thinking he had an easy UD in the bag. if he had a better corner then he would have dominated the entire fight imoComment

You make valid points, but I just dont see the Khan Vs Ortiz outcome being determined by mental weakness. Ortiz already proved he wont quit with Berto, and he took a massive shot in the 6th rd and just got up. Same with Khans chin and the maidana fight. Ortiz was 22 Years old when he fought Maidana, he is close to 25 now and probably older when he faces Khan.
I would think the outcome would be decided by either Khans speed and skills, or Ortiz power and pressure. Good fight regardlessComment
