khan/ortiz march 6th??

Where has this come from is there a link ????

After the Maidana debicle i couldnt see GBP putting Ortiz in with Khan no way !!!!!!

 

Some seriously funny comments here:

Ortiz in his loss to Maidana still looked better than Khan when Breidis exposed his weak chin ...

 

I think its to soon for Ortiz to be in there with Kahn! He needs a couple more fights.

 

just read the comments on there, so ironic how the majority were saying ortiz would knock khan out, and if asked the same question now, only a few months later most would probably pick khan, and probably by stoppage.

Khan ortiz sounds good with maidana and alexander on the same card

 

I'm surprised so many people are favouring Khan over Ortiz. Very surprised.

As it stands I'd actually go for an Ortiz win, stoppage in the mid to late rounds. I honestly don't know if Khan's defence is improved enough to withstand pressure from someone as aggressive as Ortiz. 72 seconds against Salita certainly doesn't convince me that Khan is ready for this sort of challenge.

People seem to be writing off Ortiz too much. He's a massive junior welterweight with destructive power in both hands, and he will certainly have Khan in a world of trouble if he catches him clean.

It's a great match up, and it makes good business sense to make it happen further down the line, when both have established their names and have are reached their peak. In which case, I'd be more inclined to favour Khan, as his development under Roach seems like it can go very far.

 

People are aware that ortiz has a victory over khan in the amateurs?...

 

Didnt know that! Would be a good fight, still pick Kahn because of the hand speed.

 

Isn't it the other way round dude? I'm pretty sure it was Khan that put Ortiz down in the amateurs.

(Not that it will have much bearing in a pro bout)

 

Khan would never agree to this, Ortiz can punch.
