      This makes perfect sense..

        Through Social Media: Tim Tszyu: “Yo Vergil Ortiz. Welcome to the “54 club. I’m always keen for a modern day classic.”

        Vergil Ortiz Jr: “I knew you would be man! Let’s do it.”

          Good move, Ortiz isn’t going to a star due to being undefeated, his style makes him a fan favorite so why not go for harder fights? Even in a loss the kids star would grow.

            Both of these guys torture their opponents by inflicting calculated and serious damage on their opponents. Unless one guy just gets caught too early, it could be brutal for many rounds after it warms up. Both have been stunned or knocked down. Fight of the year candidate.

                Screw marinating. If ortiz wants it next then make it. I think he wins.

                  Ortiz has issues, but so does Tim. Ortiz is a sick man, the sooner the better, before other symptoms kick in, but Tim has that hometown aroma. Can he take the bright lights?

                    Ortiz has never been down I think he was slightly stunned by Mean Machine though.

                      And most likely due to weight as well.
