    One lacklustre fight does not make the man a poor fighter. It was more Scott being negative than Ortiz not performing well.

    He did not look all that great against Tony Thompson either. If Chisora can close the gap against the rabbit why can't Kong?

    Scott was winning the fight against Chisora, he was losing everything against Ortiz.
