Watch Berto vs Ortiz Fight

Advertisements

WBC Welterweight champion Andre Berto will fight junior welterweight contender Victor Ortiz on April 16th at the MGM Grand Theater at Foxwoods in Mashantucket, Connecticut.

Many experts have called the fight nothing but a farce criticising the defending champion for fighting selectively. Andre Berto will be defending the title for the 6th time in his career. Berto is gifted with lightning fast hand speed & tremendous flexibility. He holds a record of 27-0 with 21 of them being KOs.

On the other hand Victor Ortiz is a natural right hander trained as a southpaw. Because of this he has a tremendous right hook which is more than enough to rattle a few of Berto’s nerves. He also has quite good head movement & decent footwork. But he lacks the essential qualities when it comes to defence. He has also been proving himself in the 140 lbs since capturing those regional belts. He has defeated Nate Campbell & Vivian Harry (by KO) after losing a tough match against Marcos Maidana.
