I swear I was going to make a thread saying J. Lopez had value
This guy is a bum and needs to retire. He's also a dirty ass fighter.

"Broken Jaw" -- Never hope for anything negative for a fighter, but his jaw better be broken, because if after an x-ray it is shown that its not, then his career as anything more than a midcarder is likely over
Very close fight.. then they looked at the score card and Ortiz was up by a wide margin which is absolute nonsense.
Just unreal those cards...I had 87-84 Lopez at that point.

That had to have killed a ton of parlays. I had the under 10.5 but only cause I thought Ortiz was gonna walk through him.

Kind of convenient time to give up heading into the money rounds.

You know, I had a hunch if the going got tough Ortiz would quit, again, and sure enough he wussed out and made the difference between having a good weekend and barely making anything. Never bet on a fighter who is emotionally weak like Ortiz. A guy like Ortiz needs to find a new occupation. This is three instances where he's given up or done something extremely stupid in the ring and I for one will never, ever bet on his sorry ass again.

I bet Matthysse straight up and also by KO. I also bet the fight wouldn't go the distance so he made me some cash. I had him at -137 and -150, glad to have got this while it was available.

What in the world does Canelo do now? Lara doesn't have the name but would be a great fight.

It's almost incomprehensible how few legit contenders there are these days. I thought the heavyweight ranks were pathetic but 147 & 154 pound divisions are equally bleak.

Oh, Victoria Ortiz. The same guy who got put on his ass a few times, had a cut over one eye, a hematoma under the other... and QUIT, just 2 years ago?

We are talking about a professional boxer, correct? A "champion" no less that quits every time.
Victoria Ortiz IS an armchair warrior, playing a fighter on TV. I'd say the criticism he receives is justified.

But the thing is he quit in the exact same manner against maidana without even being injured. He was just losing the fight and wanted out. He expected his corner (robert garcia) to throw in the towel but they didn't. Caused him to switch camps started training with garcias brother to spite him, Robert said ortiz is a pussy with no heart.
When he headbutted mayweather that was his way of quitting then as well.

I don't know the official scorecards, but IMO he also quit in the 10th round of a close fight.
I picked up on his discomfort in the middle rounds. I think it was broken in the 6th, he whispered into his trainer's ear and the body language told me something happened there. Victor Ortiz is the last guy who can afford to quit any fights. He doesn't have a fighters heart. Quitting on the stool robbed boxing fans of a 50/50 fight going into the championship rounds. Unacceptable.
Give me Cotto/Canelo, Showtime/Golden Boy.

Judging was horrendous. Two judges has Ortiz up WIDE, the other had Ortiz edging it.

Right, Ortiz has got a lot of money now but his head is not in the game. Its a shame because he has a lot of talent. The problem here is the first time he quit. If he hadnt quit against Maidana I think people would give him the benefit of the doubt here. A broken jaw is no joke. But even before that I was thinking that Lopez really came to fight last night. Not what Ortiz was looking for.

i had 2k on matthysse at -215...was talking to "rocky mattioli" about this and other fights in pm's.....loved this play...line was around 220 all week....checked it in the morning saturday and was up to 225....i went to place my wager in the evening around 8 oclock and it was at 215..i wanted to make a post touting this play but i didnt get a chance...i thought it was a slam dunk play
soto is a career 130-135 guy...the 140 guys on his resume are nobodies....the guy is chasing money fights.....while you have a guy like matthysse who actually beat devon in the lou....handled zab....these are legit 140 guys who have been up at 147 too.....it was an easy play....loved it....

Forget his past because that is irrelevant to the topic at hand..
We are talking about yesterday and IF he had a broken jaw, then its totally acceptable to throw in the towel. Your only hurting yourself further and putting your career in jeopardy. Broken Jaw is no joke.
He didn't quit vs. Floyd ... I don't even see where you may have a point to be honest. Dirty as hell, absolutely .. but quit? Don't let your bias against someone or something blind you from what is actually going on.

yeah this was a great fight though, wish it would of seen more of it. but it certainly looked like he was alot of pain. blood bleeding nonstop out of his mouth.
was watching this on my new tv which is hd * 10. can't wait for the football season, and need to call up my cable company to see how much espn 3d channel is. might be worth checking out for the football season, i know they only put 2-3 games on their a week then replay it so it can't be that much.

Mayweather -600 would be a gift. Doubt it happens but the jail stint might bring it down. More likely -800 to -900 range.

No way Lopez belongs at 140 and Canelo at 154. They both have bright futures but not vs. each other.

Ortiz was on the radio in Kansas City today....he's still in the hospital from the broken jaw...his bud does a morning show there...he really was down bigtime
