If it happens, who will win? By KO or by decision?

Difficult one to predict. Ortiz is a strong puncher, but if it goes into the later rounds, anything can happen.

[Born2Live]

Kotelnik has a great jab, can easily counter over Ortiz's lazy jab. Ortiz fast & stronger in the punch, it's a pretty even fight but Ortiz by UD.

Ortiz should win, but Kotelnik is no joke and I won't pick Ortiz in these fights until he wins one. What will Ortiz do when Kotelnik is frustrating him and landing good shots of his own?

Kotelnik by decision.

ortiz by dec.

[Silencers]

I kind of expect Ortiz to come out like he did against Campbell and Alatorre, more movement and combinations, trying to box more and not stand his ground too much. So this could turn out to be a little bit of a dull fight. Kotelnik's timing will give Ortiz quite a lot of trouble, his timing would give every junior welterweight out there problems, but I think Ortiz will win a decision, I think his size might play a pretty big factor, he'll be a welterweight in a couple of years.

Ortiz by close UD

[tito_bandito]

Ortiz seems to have recovered from his shattered wrist since before the maidana fight...dont be surprised if Ortiz KO's Koltelnik...

[John Hue]

I only see one winner here . Ortiz by UD or late stoppage.

kotelnik is too short, too slow and he doesn't punch hard enough. bad style matchup for kotelnik. ortiz will win this in similar fashion as he won the campbell fight but kotelnik will be more game.
