    Floyd is poking Ortiz in the neck, and that Brandon Rios is calling Ortiz, a fellow Mexican a phony? Some posters here put in a lot of hard work defending Ortiz's image. That's got to hurt.

    Can't put my finger on it, but something about Ortiz's demeanor strikes me as phony. First time I noticed it was when that Israeli dood asked him about Rios' beef with him. The way he said that he didn't know made me think not only did he know, but also he thought that Rios has a reasonable basis for his anger towards him.

    Rios has said similar things in the past.

    About Ortiz and his friends making threatening calls, and another time sending his goons to either his or his friend's house. I can't remember if he was talking about his GF or a friend's GF, but the story is that the girl got scared and ran and ****ed up
    her head.

    I read what Rios said about him. A fellow Mexican at that. I'm not taking sides. Just wondering if Ortiz has been on the up and up.

    Just caught the total weigh in. No choking went on, just pointing. My bad, I seemed to have pulled an Ortiz.

    Floyd got in Ortiz's face, and when that didn't phase him, Floyd tried to choke him

    I saw it. No choking going on. I'm glad Ortiz doesn't seem intimidated.

    To me it looked like Floyd started by sticking his fingers in Ortiz's neck. Right before they were pulled apart, Floyd had his hand around Ortiz's throat

    I still think Floyd wins; but hopefully, Ortiz at least makes it interesting
