Victor Ortiz on Berto: Can't Wait To Beat That Ass Again!
Posted by: Edward Chaykovsky on 3/15/2015

By Edward Chaykovsky

Welterweight contender Victor Ortiz (30-5-2, 23KOs) is hungry to get in the ring again with Andre Berto (30-3, 23KOs). In 2011, the two boxers exchanged knockdowns with Ortiz winning a 'Fight of The Year' unanimous decision to capture the WBC welterweight title and handed Berto his first career defeat.

Both fighters have suffered several defeats since their meeting four years ago. Ortiz snapped a three fight losing streak in December with a TKO in three over Manuel Perez. Berto himself snapped a two fight losing streak last September with a decision over Steve Upsher and this past Saturday he knocked out Josesito Lopez in six.

The Berto-Lopez bout was viewed by some as an 'eliminator' to get Ortiz in the ring. Lopez broke Ortiz's jaw and stopped him in 2012.

A Berto-Ortiz rematch was actually scheduled in 2012, but canceled after Berto tested positive for a banned substance in a pre-fight drug test. Berto was later cleared after VADA [Voluntary Anti Drug Association] determined that Berto did not intentionally take anything and it was highly likely that something he ingested was "contaminated" with the substance.

Following Berto's win over Lopez, Ortiz posted the below photo on the social networks with the following message - "Can't wait to beat that ass again!!!!."

I know Virgil Hunter is trying to have Berto duck Ortiz, but ......we need this fight

 

[Amare's Right Hook]

Sad thing is he is probably right.

 

[YvrzTrvly]

god damnit joesito. how the fukk you lose to AB "Another Bum"? I DO NOT WANT TO SEE THESE GUYS FIGHT AGAIN...whats the point?

 

[ChocolateGiddyUp]

Give Victor Ortiz Josesito next

Let Berto fight a top 10 Welterweight or Avenge the L against SotoKarass

I'd let that rematch cook for a bit...see if Berto can get some good Ws N become a player at 147... See if Ortiz doesn't crumble first time he gets touched

Say Berto loses to Devon or Soto Karass or Guerrero then id cash him out vs Ortiz

 

[YvrzTrvly]

the fact that Another Bum lost to Soto-Karass, who is basically the boxing equivalent to the guy from the Goonies, should immediately be banned from fighting any somewhat high profile fighter...

<-----SotoKarass

 

[Kobes Two Jerseys]

This fool got KOd by Collazo, and talking about Berto?

Berto was one armed for 80% of that fight tho

 

[YvrzTrvly]

he definitely was but i mean soto karass has three left feet. Really his problem is that he wants to bang when he should be making best use of his skillset...which I might add is impressive when under control.

 

[Jello Biafra]

Allah Haymon needs to get that fight signed for one of his summer time TV slots and then do a couple all access joints just to see the Ortiz fukkery.

 

[JDee323]

Only fight i care about seeing ortiz in is against rios.

@ any other fight for him right now

 

[Reggie]

At the least it will be another decent fight and I do think Ortiz would win the rematch too.

 

[Big D Bangston]

The way ortizzzzz chin been looking, i hope berto can touch him FIRST

 

[mr. smoke weed]

Berto was one armed for 80% of that fight tho

When amateur bustdown dropped JSK I was he gave it his all that fight, major props from MSW

 

[patscorpio]

@ any other fight for him right now

at least with that one i can expect both fighters to come in with their heads on straight....so each one can try to knock it off their shoulders
