    Fortuna has the speed and power to trouble Uchiyama and I agree that Takashi has seen nothing like him. The thing that troubles me about Fortuna is his recent association with Memo Heredia. We know what Memo is about which was further exposed by Vanes and Jesse Vargas. I think that Uchi should demand testing be part of the deal.

    Uchiyama is a slow starter, old, and his defense is soft. He will have to survive the early onslaught that Fortuna always brings. Uchiyama's strength is that he slowly picks guys apart, goes to the body, can counter, has that devastating power in both hands and can knock guys out late. Fortuna has never been in with anyone with this kind of power and I think he has been matched pretty soft. Fortuna's best win was against Vasquez who he dominated but who also was stopped by Uchiyama.

    If Uchiyama can get out of the 3rd or 4th round without being seriously hurt, I see him eventually wearing Fortuna down and stopping him. I think he will get caught during one of his wild barrages when his head always seems wide open.

    Man, this Tiliheels guy really has a big woody for Javier. I would like to go see this fight live but I'm having 2nd thoughts. Because if Fortuna wins I don't wanna get sprayed by Tiliheels!

        Fortuna also lunges when he punches.

                My thoughts exactly. Smfh @ WBA.

                Fortuna is no chump but I'd have preferred Uchiyama/Walters

                  Dominicans are famous for peds use in all sports? Ignorant much? Other than baseball (which a lot of races have been caught not just Dominicans) please mention a few other athletes that come to mind. So, just cause Fortuna is Dominican it automatically makes a him a suspect...ok. I guess under your theory all black people are ****** and all white people are racist...get the picture?

                  I have no issues with testing but becareful how you go around labeling people...it's complete bull****.

                    It's a damn good fight, a damn good one, that said I can't see Fortuna coming out victorious but I think he'll learn from it.

                      Damn it, I thought Uchiyama/Walters was all but official.
