Didnt expect oritz to just give up like that, he was still winning but Maidana is a warrior. That guy came out the 6th round with mean intention, seem like he knew he could make Ortiz quit. Its bizarre how Ortiz corner kept telling him they will stop the fight and Ortiz was not responsive. Ortiz got caught with some good shots on the fifth round but he was still winning, what did i miss? why in the world would a corner suggest stoping a fight their fighter is winning? The fight was a good one but its just awful how a guy named Vicious would just quit after a knockdown far from worst than the first kd he suffered.

I respect what Ortiz said in his interview, he has all the right to discontinue fighting if he feels like he has had enough. Im just shocked he gave up on that fight. He was winning and Maidana is the one who suffered from the worst of the beatings.

This is a bit similar to Izzy Rafa I, Izzy quit and knew he had enough but knew if he fights another day he could win the next bout. However Izzy had a legit injury, Ortiz just gave up....if he gets a rematch with Maidana i still think he would win. So much for the heart of a champion quality, every spectator looks for in a fighter.

Do you guys think Ortiz can be a celebrated champion? his only 22 but his gonna go through a hell of a lot worst beating then that. He needs to think if he really wants to be in boxing cause you can't just quit when your not even getting pounded that bad.
