Damn it. I was all set to cheer Andriy to victory (he'd have broken Vic's heart). Lamont...does not exactly have the style to completely strangle Ortiz's will. He could well upset him with a very good performance, though. This should be interesting.
I really hope this phrase dies down soon. :yep If it's still going strong in 2011 I'm going to be :wall
Overall I'm totally ambivalent toward Ortiz, actually (like his boss and predecessor as Mexican American "golden boy"). I'd just really like a big win for Kotelnik.
Peterson could outbox him. Peterson has a highly polished style, technical style which is enjoyable to watch.
Just a note to those jumping to pick Ortiz with confidence: this is Lamont Peterson, not Anthony. This is the guy who's probably been more competitive than anyone with Tim "Desert Storm" Bradley (regardless of the scores).
