Lubin, late KO x2

The Hammer ain’t playing. Look at the fighters he’s fought, win some, lose some. He’s got this.If Ortiz wins, it’ll be an early KO, but I still think his health could be an issue down the stretch.

Lubin will need a KO, or the world's best performance to get a decision from the judges.

Man, if you get this right I'm going to bow to your superior knowledge

Ortiz's resume is not made of tomato cans, either. Lubin lost bad in both the biggest fights of his career (Charlo and Fundora), and might even be damaged goods after the Fundora fight, he took a lot of hard shots in that one (although, in truth, he was winning). My pick is Ortiz early, but now you have given me the itch to put some money on Lubin late - the odds are in the region of 56/1 for a Lubin KO in the late rounds

Tata, listen, he took no damage vs Charlo, early KO. With FunDip he was at an 7 inch hand length disadvantage. He didn’t quit! Now, if anyone was damage goods, it’s Ortiz. Ortiz dealing with the remissed Rabo.
that stuff shows up in late rounds I bet. Lubin has gone the distance plenty of times, has Ortiz? No. If he cannot get a quick KO, 1-4, he won’t win the fight.

I remember Ortiz finishing strong vs Bohachuk and Madrimov, to be fair. Still, your theory fascinates me, I'll be seriously thinking about putting some money on Lubin KO late
