21-0 Cuban Heavyweight Luis King Kong Ortiz Kayos Monte Barrett and Retires Him
By Robert Brizel, Head Real Combat Media Boxing Correspondent
Indio, Ca (April 5th, 2014)– Circling erroneously into the power of his opponent, an inactive, rusty and aging 42 year old Monte ‘2 Gunz’ Barrett got knocked out with a power left to the nose thrown by Cuban heavyweight prospect Luis Ortiz, now from Miami, Florida, now 21-0 with 18 knockouts. The main event bout at Fantasy Springs Casino in Indio, California, on April 3, 2014, was the last for Barrett, who announced his retirement immediately after the bout.

Ortiz, a 34 year old southpaw, keep the heat on Barrett with melodious exchanges which found the mark and left Monte, slow, awkward and wild, taking consistent punishment. Barrett, now 35-11-2, 20 knockouts, Queens, New York, was unable to get started. It appeared Barrett had insufficient time to prepare for the bout, and it wasn’t the Monte Barrett fight fans remembered. Monte, with a knockout loss to Shane Cameron in 2012, and a draw with Charles Davis in 2011, had little left and his skills were only memories against Ortiz. Fight fans will remember Monte with love. The old Monte we remember last showed up against David Tua twice.
Ortiz seems unlikely to be the type to fightthe likes of Deontay Wilder, Bryant Jennings or other contenders. If he is waiting for a title opportunity, the likes of Wladimir Klitschko, Alexander Povetkin, Chris Arreola or Kubrat Pulev could be in his future. Ortiz will need to win some step up fights if he is to be taken seriously. Beating the aging Monte does not prove Ortiz worthy of world class status in term s of ability yet.
