dorticos is massively overrated. gassiev ko's him easily

[jas]

dorticos throws the same combo over and over again- jab followed by some variation of his right, mostly the straight. very rarely throws a lead right hand. shockingly repetitive.






here are a couple fights. am i missing something? dorticos looks extremely basic to me.

gassiev is an improving fighter with great power. gassiev wins via ko easily.

bookies have this about a 60-40 fight for gassiev ,

i made the thread because i think this is such a good bet .mismatch imo.

The Kurdyashov fight really showed the limitations of Dorticos, he had thrown the same, right left-right-left-right left- combination and most of it where in the gloves. Until finally it landed.

I am in no doubt in my pick that Gassiev breaks Dorticos down in the middle rounds as he gas.

As long as Gassiev isn’t caught/hurt early, I’m convinced he starts to beat up Dorticos and stops him in the mid rounds.

Wow, shocking, a boxer throws the best possible combination - jab followed by the right, mostly straight, absolutely shocking.

Seriously, Dorticos has weaknesses, mainly his inability to get out of range combined with low hands and fairly poor stamina but his punch selection and execution are better than those of 90% of high level pros out there.

I pick Gassiev to win but it's not an easy fight and Gassiev has to be careful not to get knocked out early.

He's appears quite basic for sure though there's quite a lot of variation on that right hand its very educated.

I'm not 100% sold on his chin or stamina but those solid fundamentals can serve him very well against a rather green pressure fighter who often struggles to get off and has no head movement. Its steady pressure but Gassiev is one paced and imo a bit of a one dimensional left hook artist.

I think he needs to get off first, keep it simple, keep it long.
Keep Gassiev on the end of that long, stiff jab.
If he has the tank I feel he can potentially outbox Gassiev rather easily. He is by far the better boxer.

That said I'm not sure who I like to win both still have a lot to prove. Stylistically I favour Dorticos but his stamina is questionable along with his chin, its a tough one.

Yeah this isn't punch out an actual functioning human being learns how to deal with a repetitive 1-2. And what execution? You know that fighting cans that act like heavy bags are wildly different from fighting live bodies right?

How dare you talk like that with your somewhat primitive knowledge.

The way Dorticos sets up his right hand with the jab and finds openings is amazing. He throws it to the head, straight to the body and wide to the ribs as well.

With accuracy and power. And Dorticos throws good uppercuts with his right, too.


The offensive arsenal he has really isn't his limit.
