Comments Thread For: Berto-Ortiz Rematch Looms as The IBF Title Vacated

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Welterweight contender Andre Berto has vacated his IBF title in favor of a lucrative rematch with Victor Ortiz, which may take place in late January on HBO. Ortiz handed Berto his first career defeat, by unanimous decision, in a Fight of The Year contender in April. Randall Bailey was Berto's mandatory, and the IBF was pressing for the fight, but none of the major networks were interested in picking it up.

no way the fight is as good as the first one. I'd probably favor berto slightly in the rematch though. Depends if ortiz still has that same fire which I doubt.

I hope they make Bailey vs mike jones for that vacant title.

Good for hbo taking a stand against berto with his bullshlt fights.This has
nothing with berto wanting to avenge his lost to ortiz but more of hbo
forcing him to fight ortiz.If berto dont clinch as much as his last fight
with ortiz,Then i got ortiz by ko.

[J-Smooth]

ortiz is gonna win again...

it's not berto's fault Bailey was his mandatory. Berto is just going after the money and what the fans want, not sure what else is to be said on the matter.
