    Obviously the right hook is his lead hand, but it doesn't really compensate for his lack of a jab. He doesn't commit to it and if someone is going to beat Canelo (Who isn't named Mayweather) then they will need to jab, and take control of the distance.

    **** I didnt know that. Well anyway, I think Canelo probably comes in around 170, he's huge at 154.

    What gives Ortiz hope is his incredible Stamina and Great Power...

    What Hurts him is his ability to fight off the back foot where Canelo will be stalking him, and he doesn't like to be stalked and pushed BACK he loves to go forward... but that ain't gonna work if he gets countered HARD... he will then proceed to go BACK until his demise... that's how I see it. I may be wrong.

    I also have a feeling this fight will LEAD to Either Cotto Or Mayweather if CANELO wins in spectacular Fashion.

    Saul stops The PED Killer. The PED Killer will test his chin!

    Cotto would be a nightmare for Canelo IMO. Maybe even more so than Mayweather would be.

    Saul should fight Cotto(e) next after he beats The PED Killer. Then Mayweather later next year if he can impressively get pass Cotto(e).

    Awesome fight! A real test for Canelo? I would say so. Ortiz is a mental midget at times, but he packs a punch and is pretty explosive. This should be a good scrap. Not sure if it is PPV worthy, but it is a damn fine match up.

    Definitely Will...

    and this fight will sell Very well.. specially the Mexican fans... Pretty excited it's a fan favorite fight IMO that will at least deliver a KD if not a certain TKO. Good ****! Something to look forward to.

    The size difference won't be much IMO. Ortiz is huge for a WW!
