Who has the better boxing future? Khan or Ortiz?

Wow I didn't know that Morales is a possible opponent for Khan.

What I see in Khans future is that he outpoints Kotelnik for the WBA belt, fights Morales at 140 then fights Hatton late in 2010 at which time Ricky will be 32 and even worse than right now, possibly fights Pacman in '12 when Pacman is 34 and doesn't have the reflexes or speed anymore and maybe a future fight with Mayweather in '13 when Floyd will be 36 and needs money and doesn't have the speed and reflexes anymore. Then Khan will pronounce that he beat so many top legends and will be known as one of the all time greats.

Khan has a bright future indeed, but he has to get past Kotlenick, which I think he should be able to. Warren is a shrewd man.

Ortiz did the smart thing. He couldn't see out of either eye. He young and he'll live to fight another day. Khan would have never gotten from the fight hand Ortiz took in the first.

Ortiz

Heart is an illusion that boxing fans use as a reason to praise or diss a fighter. If a fighter quits on his stool he has no heart yet then they go on to have a war its all forgotten.

Vitali was called heartless, Wladimer was called heartless and unable to bend to pressure. All was forgotten when Vitali went tooth and nail with Lennox Lewis.

I agree with Ortiz that he shouldnt be taking punches like that, he is a boxer puncher, not a slugger, he has the boxing skills to not be dragged into wars like that. I think thats what he meant and i completely agree

If he had the boxing skills to change the fight he lacked the bottle/heart to try. So either way he quit through a lack of bottle/heart.

He admitted he quit because he got scared of the punishment.

I'm sure there are dozens of examples of fighters quitting but they try and disguise it and certainly don't admit it afterwards.

Good for Ortiz for not bullshitting, i guess.

I hope your joking.
