    He was ****ing tough in the Berto rematch AND Josesito fights. And Bert's defensive gaps are about the same as Crawford when Crawford decides to go to war. That's why I say Ortiz at minimum drops him full stop before quitting, if he does quit, which I don't think he would because again, Crawford doesn't have one punch power at 147.

      Unknown, Victor has been under the radar, last I heard was him supporting Khan over Crawford.

        Ortiz has fought once each year in 2015-2018. He hasn't fought once this year and is listed as inactive. To suggest that he is a perfect match-up for Crawford at this point is ridiculous. He's a perfect cherry-pick.

          It cannot be denied that Victor Ortiz would STILL be the best name on the resume. Unless Crawford ends up with another asterisk, like the fight being stopped off a headbutt.

            Ortiz is barely a Name in this point in his career. He hasn't had a fight in the past couple of years where he even looks half way decent.

              A name is a name. Remember, we're talking about the guy (Crawford) who just fought Amir Khan not long ago.

                  Fairly certain I read that the girl dropped the charges.

                    Hopefully that's true, hopefully he didn't do some sketchy shyt. It was a bummer to hear that news.
