Well Gassiev doesnt have the hardest body either so Dorticos can target Gassievīs body aswell. Plus he has much more experience as a boxer. 257 amateur fights Dorticos vs 20 amateur fight Gassiev

Gassiev has a six pack!

Dorticos thinking on KOing Gassiev inside 4 rounds, if he does that and shot his load early while not yet cracking Gassiev it is all over for him.

Thats what I am saying. "The longer the fight goes the better for Gassiev." BUT Dorticos showed toughness when he stopped Kalenga in the 10th round when he was behind on the cards. It was also in the opponentīs backyard in France. This situation is not new for Dorticos.

Neither Gassiev nor Dorticos were dropped in pro bouts so far.So Dorticos apparently can take a punch too. I can't wait for this fight which won't go past 5 rounds.

Dorticos admitted in the post weigh in Interview that his game plan is to KO Gassiev inside 4 rounds. He will throw heavy bombs early which Gassiev never experienced before. On the other hand the longer the fight goes the better the chances for Gassiev.

These, i think are the two most likely scenarios, either Dorticos gets to Gassiev in the early rounds like he did with Kudryashov or Gassiev holds on and takes Dorticos late by ko. Both are very heavy handed, i don't see it going to the judges.

Cuban fighters have big amateur records but left their fight in the amateurs. RARELY do they deliver very long in the pros. They talk their asses off but that's it. I hope Ortiz proves otherwise. Dorticos is in for the fight of his life. There are no tougher, more disciplined better schooled fighters than the Eastern Europeans. Like Latinos, they do their talking in the ring and usually always make their point. I pick Gassiev because 1. He's solid and by far the bigger puncher well schooled with excellent fundamentals and 2. HE'S EASTERN EUROPEAN lololol!!!

Yes I agree. Either Dorticos early by KO or Gassiev mid to late rounds by KO.

Also guys remember that Gassiev just like GGG need 2-3 rounds to study their opponent before doing anything serious in the ring. Thats the chance for Dorticos to deliver the KO.
