MASHANTUCKET, Connecticut?Not the most familiar boxing dateline in the world, yes, but Foxwoods and now the plush MGM Grand at Foxwoods have had their share of fight cards, big and small.
What many don’t know is that ?Mashantucket? is a old, tribal language word meaning huge upset by much maligned underdog.
Many don’t know that because I just made that up as a way of telling you that I have a very distinct but also ephemeral feeling that Vicious Victor Ortiz, branded a ring quitter for his less gutsy performance in losing to Argentinian hard guy Marcos Maidana, is going to win the ?Mashantucket Mashup? (something else I contrived, this fight has no such nifty nickname) against undefeated but often pampered WBC welterweight champion Andre Berto.
