    That was a great fight. The first six rounds were a classic slugfest. Jabs and ducking are for the weak - lol. That KD Ortiz got at the end of round 6 was shocking. I thought it was over.

    I do not want to come off as some arm chair warrior, jerk off but the last five rounds were basically sub par. Tons of falling in and holding with a deterioration of technique.

    With that being said the first seven rounds were fantastic. If that had continued the fight would have possibly surpassed Corrales/Castillo I.

    Thats boxing. YOu get two guys who throw zillions of punches and are very offensive minded and you get a technical pitty pat match. The next day you get two guys who dont like to mix it up and it turns into a war. You never know. Why its the greatest sport in the world. You cant make this **** up.

    I felt good for Ortiz. ***** was crying and ****. Then he threw up a big **** you to the fat ****s in the media and arm chair warriors who question his toughness.

    Thats my homie. I said when he lost to Maidana Bernstein wasnt the trainer for him. He tried too much to be a counter puncher. He's a aggressive boxer puncher like Oscar. One of the best athletes in the division.

    the announcers kept repeating and it was true....Ortiz had that life or death look, he was not to be denied that night.

    **** no. Maybe you could make a case for Chavez over a guy like Hearns, and definitely over Mayweather Jr. But apart from that, nahh.

    That azteca or mexican keyboard warrior in this thread had the ultimate backfire. He didn't realize Michigan produces the best fighters in the world.

    You know, in the lead up to this fight, you could just tell in ortiz's interviews, that all the fans, media, and to him im sure, the world, had disrespected him.... had written him off, and you could just tell, somethings up with Ortiz.

    Ortiz is a young fighter that has been put under the microscope throughout his career, and ya, sometimes **** happens.... like against Maidana. But Ill be honest, the way he came in against Berto, the way he put it all on the line, you know what that is just a beautiful thing..... I was never a fan of eather guy (though I respected both), but Ill admit, I just might have become an ortiz fan.

    Great fight, my respect to both these badasses, and I hope to see them back as good as ever, soon.

    How can you not fall in love with that kind of determination.

    Also, a great lesson to thin minded boxing fans, that one fight doesnt define a fighter. Neather good nor bad.
