Ugh.............

Ehhhhh..... I guess it's alright for a last minute replacement fight and an inactive Oritz.... Would have been cool if it was Vargas though... so he could kick Vargas's teeth in

[mgsooner]

This is as good as could reasonably be expected in this situation.

From the title I thought Arreola could be fighting Ortiz

I know the fat **** could lose some weight but not that much

It's not like he's been completely inactive for all those months. Ortiz practically had two training camps to fight Berto so picking an opponent as if it's a tuneup is inexcusable.

I would prefer both Prescott and Vanes to Lopez.

Victor needs to get in the ring and get past his last outing. people wont like the name value in the opponent but the fight itself might be pretty good and both are somewhat local to LA so maybe they can salvage some fans. a let down no matter what tho. what a waste of a year so far for Ortiz
