Out of interest, for everyone saying this is a dud fight, who could/ should have Floyd fought? (excluding PAC)

I've also just learnt the fight is at 160! That's huge for Floyd, has he been on the Hatton diet?

It's a welterweight bout of 147.. I dont know where you got that 160. You're probably talking about Ortiz rehydrating up to 160 on the night of the night.

Read it on Skysports, I thought it seemed big! They even brang up the Oscar fight about the weight increase.

Sky has to be mis-informed then because there's no reason why the fight would take place at 160.

Floyd always stays in-shape and his walk around weight isnt much different from where he's fighting at.

This fight is for ORtiz' 147 WBC title.

160 ? Really. Would be interested in seeing if they are talking about this being higher than 147.Hey I wouldn't doubt it ya know. Forget it being big for floyd, we're talking about a guy in Ortiz who has ONE official Welterweight fight. Wasn't he the one being called smaller then Berto etc etc. I know he has the wingspan of a Condor but wow.

What are you fucking serious with that?

[CFH]

The fight is at 160!?!

[fan johnny]

The fight is at 160!?!

I doubt it! The fight is listed as a WBC Welterweight Title Fight.

I think the ultimate source was Sky Sports, who obviously got their wires crossed, assuming we all know Ortiz fights at around the 160 mark.

I read it on sky sports. But I googled it today and the page has been changed, I think it's safe to say sky made a fuck up.

At a weight of 160 Ortiz would be massive, it seemed odd, which made it seem a bit more interesting. At welter Ortiz gets taught a lesson.

But I can see why the fights been made and I'm still looking forward to it.

I guess this seals the deal for a PBF-PAC fight for May 2012

Yes Sky confused me as well with the 160lb Ortiz title holder. It was like that presenter asking Groves when he would fight Khan. Thick.
