Boxing  > General Boxing  > Is Ortiz on the same level as Pacquiao and Mayweather?

What a fight between Ortiz and Berto. I didn't think Ortiz had it in him to beat Berto. What a turnaround for Ortiz. For those who missed this fight, you missed a good one. I'd like to see a rematch.
Now that Ortiz is now a welterweight champion, is he on the same level as Pacquiao and Mayweather? Berto was undefeated before Ortiz beat him. Berto is no joke, its just that Ortiz wanted it more.
Looks like Ortiz has reinvented himself to be on the same level as Pacquiao and Mayweather. Better watch out for this guy. What's your take?

Absolutely not. Ortiz does not have the same heart as Pacquiao or Mayweather. about 3 fights ago Ortiz said "I don't deserve this" after getting whooped in a fight. He can punch, but he lacks in the "going out on my shield" dept. Just because you go out and get a few tribal tattoos doesn't change whats inside. Both Many and Floyd would turn Ortiz's face into hamburger.
