"I can't ****ing breathe!" Is WAAAAY different than "I don't deserve to be taking this kind of beating!" Izzy had to have surgery to repair his shnozz, what injury did Ortiz have other than "omfg quit beating me!"?? Izzy came back and won 2 fights in a row against the same dude that pushed his nose in... Ortiz has a ways to go before he's living that **** down for real. :deal
If ortiz beats berto he earns his respect back! Hes going up in weight and hes fighting a good fighter... Hes a 5-1 underdog.. Ortiz has balls!
Vitali quit after that lost a bloody war and then became a great HW champion. Life and boxing are unpredictable if Ortiz gets his **** together he could still make it.
I really want Ortiz to implement some bobbing and weaving to neutralize Berto's head hunting. If Ortiz can do that, he's got a good shot.

I must apologize to all those who believed in Ortiz. Am absolutely amazed at how the guy went through that sixth round. I was expecting him to be dominated but he proved that when you have a punch and you can hold on while taking several flashy shots, you have a chance of producing upsets. As for Berto, he saved himself from the big fights and challenges to lose to a GBP ex-hopeful, bad move from DiBella.
