Official highlights
Pretty good fight between what initially appeared to be two well matched combatants, that was until Ortiz got into his stride and it was all over rover for Corral. Ortiz looks very sharpt and appears to be back to his best.
Hearing that he was back after yet another humiliating loss, I felt a bit sorry for Ortiz. He’s always had the offensive gifts and daring without having the jaw or the judgment to stay on top. The bit about him fighting because he has a new baby daughter was kind of like the set up for a Stephen King story.
He looked decent, but who wouldn’t against the world No. 354th? The further he travels up the food chain, the worse things are going to get for that little girl.
