I think Ortiz wants to be serious when he says things like "He's back" and "He's hungry". But I also think hes too laid back and possibly a little too immature to really buckle down with his career.
When you hear a fighter (with that kind of talent) say things like that, mean, go out and do it, that fighter isn't joking around about things. He is serious and focused. If a reporter askes him "What about you and _____"? The truly focused fighter will say "All im thinking about is Callazo".
And at the very least a truly focused fighter would know he is fighting for a belt. That in itself says it all to me.
Ortiz is a beast no doubt about it. He should probably sill be a reighning champ and we should be talking about where he will rank amongst the greats.
I just think hes too laid back. He has that hippy/surfer dude/free spirit type personality.
