Amir Khan vs Victor Ortiz

[Violent Demise]

Ortiz would torture Con. Con wouldn't make it out the 2nd round

[OumaFan]

I'm high on Ortiz but for me as a prospect he's not active enough, at least lately. Needs to fight every couple months.

Completely agree with this statement.
I mentioned this on one of the YouTube videos of his that he needs to fight more often.

[HattonTheHammer]

Ortiz would have to be insane to go back down to 135 and fight khan.

Too many possibilitys for him at 140/147 to even think about fighting at lightweight.

Khan will only come up to 140 when he is either an established world champ at 135 or warren doesnt wanna risk him against casa/nate and sees his chances much better at LW

[Galaxy]

Didn't Ortiz get dropped in his last fight?

Despite that I think it would be an easy win for Ortiz!

[Fenster]

Khan stopped Ortiz in the amateurs

[Kirkland Laing]

I've only seen Ortiz fight once but he looks physically bigger than Khan. I think Khan is a better boxer though.

Khan stopped Ortiz in the amateurs

Like that means anything in the pros.

You do know that Ortiz was "tortured" and didn't make it past 2 rounds when he fought "Con" in the amateurs in 2003??

I doubt that he would torture Khan, Khan is much more technically skilled than Ortiz and would probably stop him in the late rounds. Saying that Khan does need to tighten up his defense a bit more, other than that he is coming along perfectly. People keep saying he fightin bums etc but thats due to Warren, Khan will soon be leaving him, you heard it here first!

Don't worry about VD, he just hates British boxers. It doesn't matter if Khan becomes pound for pound number one, VD still won't rate him.

Personally I'm hoping Casamayor keeps winning so that eventually Khan can KO him.

Con will keep winning. No doubt. Especially considering the shot fighters and bums he's facing. Seriously does anybody really think Gomez has a chance?

[Saddo]

Seriously does anybody really think Gomez has a chance?

its all down to how much you rate Khan in the first place...

I think Gomez might just shock a few people mate

he aint the fighter he used to be but if he connects he'll hit Khan harder than hes ever been hit.

really supprised with this matchup as Gomez has a good chance of winning this IMO i think they are underestimating him BIGTIME

Yeah Khan is someone who has legitimate problems with his chin. I think that's been more then proven and until then I can't possibly pick Khan against anyone with a talent and some pop. And the lightweight division is one with a bunch of a power, I mean even Casamayor has a ton of power, one shot power. And then go jump a division and possibly even 2 and match Khan up against a guy with huge power? I don't care what they did with headgear on I don't see how anyone picks Khan in that matchup when he has this giant red flag in his chin.

If Khan's chin is half as bad as it looks like it might be, he isn't going to win a lot of fights against the top tier charging forward recklessly. Hate to be so down but finally they matched him up with someone who isn't a powder puff puncher, let's see how he reacts. If he gets hit flush and keeps coming then I'll ease off the brake pedal a bit.

Khan has dodgy chin, for sure. Chances are he'll lose sooner rather than later because of it.

But Ortiz was hurt and dumped on his arse by a journeyman last time.

Lets be fair

Gomez will be dangerous for about six rounds then he'll gas like last time out. I wonder if he'll try and throw rights over the top or will he just throw his left hook. Still don't see him beating Khan though.
