Ortiz doesn't jab, never has. He just loves to throw that straight left. He has no defense. He has/had all the physical tools, but he never had great technique. Khan Koed him in the ams in the second round.

Ortiz's jaw is done
If Collazo made him quit imagine what any contender (Thurman, Porter, Rios, etc) would do to himComment

I must have missed that fight...
Seriously though, I think Victor is done as a top level fighter.
He had some talent but maybe it all came to early for him, he is still young but I don't think he has the mental maturity to get over his recent lapse in form.
Collazo is a fine fighter and a real tough opponent, he deserves recognition for the KO.
But...
I think Victor could have made it to the bell and recovered in his corner if he still had the stones.
Victor had a tough time as a kid, I feel for him and wish him well.Comment

I used to like Ortiz, but after his no show against Collazo I can't take him seriously any more, regardless of who trains him.Comment

Yea, I know it's crazy. Even then Ortiz was considered a boxing prodigy when Khan koed him. But, Khan has a sensational am pedigree, was almost impossible to beat. AMS r interesting because no one is on peds. In a way, its the only fair boxing battle background.
Ortiz was always highly regarded for his physical ability, fast, and hits hard, but the guy never built a sophisticated boxing technique.Comment
