Comments Thread For: Karen Chukhadzhian: "It Would Be A Big Pleasure To Fight Vergil Ortiz"

How about Chukhadzhian taking stay-active fights meanwhile like Lipinets, Dulorme or Clayton?

Pretty sure that Karen only gave Jaron problems due to the fact that Ennis doesn't really prepare for any specific styles during camp, nor does he study his opponents, rather than making Chukhadzhian out be this fighter who would take a HOF to beat him.

Also Vergil had experienced fighting a slippery orthodox out-boxer in Brad Solomon (28-1) and a southpaw in Michael Mckinson (22-0), pretty sure Ortiz would be able to make the proper adjustments of targeting the body to make his opponent stationary and corner him.

Lipinets only fought at 147 due to Top Rank's boxers not willing to fight him due to promotion issues, to make matters worse for him the top options at PBC/Showtime are high risk and low reward.

I think the winner of Cody Crowley/Abel Ramos or Kudratillo Abdukakhorov/Ve Shawn Owens are good options to see where Karen is standing.

Karen Chukhadzhian should stay away from playing the waiting game and keep himself active. Be a free agent and take fights from everywhere that is available. There's Hooker, McKinson, Cobbs, Avanesyan, Conor Benn, Van Heerden, Josesito... The list is endless for a stay-busy fight.

Sitting around for months on end will make you grow old fast and dull.

Unfortunate name

What in the Borat does this foo think he deserves a fight with Vergil after that lackluster performance he put out vs Ennis?

If it happens I see Vergil stopping him though

Any one of those names would be fine for a stay busy fight. Two more fights for this year if possible. One fight a year is just too much to stomach, especially for boxers (I don't even want to call them fighters anymore) who haven't even reached superstar status.

Karen Chukhadzhian vs Blair Cobbs would be a fun fight. I won't mind Chukhadzhian vs Avanesyan. I agree. Fighting once a year is an aberration.

How about he fights Butaev and see who gets back in the win column. If you don't pay attention to the bias commentating you can see Butaev gave Stanonis all he could handle.

Sad that NSB doesn't want to see Vergil Ortiz get rotated for 12 rounds while swinging at air.

Come on people, Karen is now the benchmark for which fighters suck at cutting off the ring.

A Vergil fight had he remained at 147 would have ended in another Virgil KO. He would just body snatch Karen . Karen just like Solomon and McKinson would last @ 6 rounds that's it !
