Statement From Rolando
Arellano,
Manager Of Victor Ortiz
Victor Ortiz and Andre Berto rematch of The 2001 Fight of
the Year has been rescheduled for June 30 at Mandalay Bay
Resort and Casino in Las Vegas.
I would like to dismiss any rumors that Victor may fight
Robert "The Ghost" Guerrero first.
Victor's primary obligation is to fight Andre Berto. The
fight was to have taken place this Saturday, Feb. 11, but
had to be postponed because Berto suffered a training injury
last week.
Guerreo is a fine young man and a very good fighter and we
would be pleased to fight him in what could be an
entertaining match.
However, I would suggest that Robert not wait around for
Victor but restart his career that was interrupted by a
training injury that required surgery.
If the opportunity arises in the future to fight Guerrero,
we would be happy to commence discussions.
But for now, Victor Ortiz' focus, as it has been for the
past three months, is to fight and defeat Andre Berto again
in a match that boxing fans the world over want to see.
