    “Everybody thinks because Ali finished his fight with Norton that you can still fight on. The difference is Ali could keep his mouth closed. Victor’s jaw was so broken his mouth was hanging open and he couldn’t keep his mouthpiece in place. The fact that he went on like he did shows how much heart he’s got. Most guys would have quit right when it happened.”

    It was Oscar de la Hoya who was responsible for bringing this unlikely pair together. Having been trained by Mayweather for nine fights, De La Hoya knows Mayweather extremely well. His knowledge of defensive skills is unsurpassed, as evidenced by his son’s achievements as the pound-for-pound greatest fighter alive today. De La Hoya spoke with Ortiz and his manager Rolando Arellano and recommended he hook up with Mayweather Sr.

    “Trust me, some defense is gonna change Victor Ortiz” Mayweather Sr

    That puts the last nail in the coffin of Ortiz, the dude is done he would be better off surfing.

    Interesting... A definite contrast to Garcia.
    (Looking for defense obviously, Why not)

    I doubt they gel well together Mayweather Sr seems like a hard task master and I don't think many young guys can handle that.

    Will be interesting to see how Victor looks in his next fight though.

    LOL

    Ortiz is going to be out of boxing very soon.

    Ortiz's problem is his mentality... same goes for Khan

    Defence is their second biggest problem

    Ortiz: "Hey Floyd, look at me, I'm a tree bro"

    Floyd: "Look here man, you need to get yo ****** ass on the pads"

    Ortiz: "But.... I'm a tree, bro"

    It's almost impossible to teach defense to offensive minded fighters when they're already in their 20's.

    Damned. Roach needs to get a 147 pounder to KO Ortiz so we can watch Sr. hit the door as his fighter is on the way to the canvas.

    When Ortiz get knockout, Sr. will storm into the locker room faster then Usain Bolt.
