Luis Ortiz-Bryant Jennings, Gonzalez-Shabranskyy RbR Fight Discussion Thread

[Fury4daWIN]

I don't get why people are dismissing Jennings. He has miles more experience and proven ability than Ortiz who, let's face it, hasn't fought anyone worth a damn in his entire career (best win: Kayode?).

Maybe Ortiz turns out to be this beast that we're all hoping for, but I've learnt never to judge a fighter based on appearances alone, and even then I'm not massively impressed by him.

I expect Jennings to outpoint Ortiz in a gutsy effort. I just hope people don't dismiss Ortiz if Jennings makes him look a bit silly.

Hope for a competitive fight, though. I love the fact that the outcome actually means something for the division.

Now that's a fight. Szpilka, Perez, Klitschko, now Ortiz. Jennings likes to test himself. I respect that. Some other fighters should take note.

YUP, respect.

[Drunken Cat]

Jennings by decision my pick but a good fight and heart is with Ortiz.

Surprised to hear Ortiz is the favorite.

[TheUntouchable]

Going with Jennings by KO, he got good power and stamina and showed it against southpaws.

Ortiz has no names on his resume.

A win for Luiz would be the best for boxing. An exciting big strong KO artist who happens to be a skilled boxer. Hopefully Luiz is the real thing and makes a statement against Jennings. He needs to drop his nickname though.

For the record, I'm backing Jennings 100%. Does that mean I think he'll win? Maybe. I think Ortiz is a very live dog and Jennings has to be careful. it will not be an easy night. My prediction is that he'll be in control but Ortiz will have spurts where he puts Jennings in trouble. I think Ortiz is very athletic for his size and has great fundamentals when he wants to use them.

He's not a skilled boxer, though. He depends on his power.

He's power is his main strength but that doesn't change the fact that he's also a skilled boxer.
