Ortiz.. He could win easily if he sticks to his gameplan!!! :deal You dont brawl with a better brawler!
Khan is not really that skilled for a world class fighter. He is fast and athletic. Likewise for Berto. They are both fighters who've gotten by way more on athleticism and speed rather than skills.
This could be a more interesting fight. Khan would likely win the boxing match but I don't know that he'd survive given the ghosts of his chins past.
Ortiz by murder IMO. I just don't see Khan putting the hurt on him. I do see Victor putting the hurt on Khan though. Plus I don't think Khan's size advantage is as big a factor against Ortiz. Plus it's obvious that Victor's stepped it up a notch since he faced Maidana.
i stopped reading right there. Khans rangier, fights on the outside better, Better combinational puncher, controls the ring better.
Ortiz by KO. Specially at 147... BIG problem for Ortiz is that there isn't anyone at 147 to fight. Floyd wont do it. Mosely and Pac are fighting each other. Maybe Clottey just to see where he stands against such a foe. Everyone else - Zaveck, Aydin, Senchenko, and Brook have good records but are all home town winners. I doubt they would leave their respective home field even for the $. Bradley will now stay at 140 to fight Khan. Dont think he wants Ortiz after tonight. Maybe a Maidana rematch? That could be a big draw.
but you don't think khan would be able to survive an early on slaught and out point ortiz? look how peterson handled him, peterson has similar reach and height to amir and he just kept him on the end of his jab and moved round the ring. plus amir has the speed and stamina to rack up the points late on. it would be a great fight to watch though.
This is just how I see it. I'm a fan of Khan's style but he looked undisciplined tonight, not tight at all, whereas Ortiz looked dynamic.
I didn't hear anything when Roach was talking to Khan between rounds. Khan was wild and all over the place. I like his performance better when he fought Malignaggi.
Ortiz will TKO or KO Khan's weak chin. Even looking at Khan's last fight he was caught by a good sho t(by a fighter not known to be a strong puncher), and it bother him, Ortiz the stronger and better fighter will hit Khan more.
I think Ortiz will win more power and more technique. I used to like Khan but I'm not impressed with his improvement, he's not versatile enough for me just does the same thing and I think Ortiz will catch on to that.
