    Good acton fight this was. Torres acquitted himself well for the first 4-5 rounds and even stunned Carlos once or twice, but the bodywork Ortiz invested in early along with Torres punching himself out somewhat started paying dividends by the middle rounds and from then on it was all Carlos until the KO.

    Torres showed himself to be an interesting prospect, but Ortiz had the upper hand throughout and was clearly a level above.

    This was the first fight of Ortiz's that I watched, and I came away very impressed by him, and Torres too for that matter.
