Saul Canelo Alvarez vs Victory Ortiz in September - Trying to Finalize Deal
Physically, Canelo and Ortiz are very similar. Both boxers stand at 5'9 and Canelo has a one-inch reach advantage - 71 to 70. Canelo would have the edge in power, with Ortiz being the quicker of the two. In terms of their styles matching up, a knockout ending is certainly a bet worth taking.

Bob Arum Cashed Out Manny Pacquiao
By Shawn Craddick
