I'd prefer Ortiz fights someone better than this but I'll still watch. Munguia is exciting but he seems to just be waiting for a Nelo payday. Ortiz by KO 2-3.
Man I really hate prolonged careful matchmaking aka "cherrypicking".
I mean, I'm all good for prospects baking rounds and making experience, but I hate when champions and former champions keep on taking on cherrypickings, really hate that. I'm hoping the kid grows a pair and fights a legit guy for once on his career, with all due respect to Rosado, he wasn't gonna beat Munguia.
Gonna root hard for Ballard to win this fight, hate the path Munguia has took on his career.
Munguia could easily get a shot at Charlo or Andrade...what happened to fighting Adames at least after he beat Derevyanchenko who Munguia was mentioning fighting
at least Ortiz opponent is Ranked in the WBO
Munguia is waiting for Charlo and Andrade to move up so he can fight and unify the division without much opposition.
Munguia wants GGG that's the end game. Its obvious he signed to fight GGG years ago but Nevada wouldn't allow it. Munguia was in talks to fight GGG last year but GGG decided to take the year off and wait for Murata in December. That fight has been delayed until early 2022, so Munguia fighting Ballard early 2022 basically on the same schedule as GGG.
Ortiz on the cusp of a title shot against Crawford. McKinson high ranking with WBO, Ortiz probably will be ordered mandatory immediately after this fight.
