• Victor Ortiz vs. Andre Berto – September 11th, 2011

  A lot can change in five short months. Just look at Victor Ortiz. When he fought Andre Berto for his WBC welterweight title on April 16 at Foxwoods Resort in Mashantucket, Connecticut, he was a virtual unknown with a so-so record.

• Fair or Foul: Mayweather vs. Ortiz – September 20th, 2011

  Robert Ecksel, Editor-in-Chief of Boxing.com, spoke with Rick Strom of TYT Sports about Saturday’s PPV fight at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas between Floyd “Money” Mayweather and “Vicious” Victor Ortiz. The end result of the fight for Ortiz's WBC welterweight title is still sending shock waves through boxing and beyond. One camp says the knockout was within the rules, which it was, and tells those that question Mayweather's actions to man up and stop their whining. The other camp talks about standards and good sportsmanship, and worries about boxing regressing back to the barbarity from which it came. This may be a case where two rights don't make a wrong. Or it may be a case where a sport, even a sport as inherently violent as boxing, has lost its way, and all the "Money" in the world won't help it find its way back...
