Comments Thread For: Gassiev Drops Dorticos Three Times For Dramatic KO in Twelfth

[StefanTosic]

I though it was even after 8 but with Gass sweeping 9,10and 11th for a 7-4.Not sure how other guy had it 9-3 after 11????I assume it was 8-3 which is close to what I had

No, the punk I'm talking about had Dorticos up by a point or 2 before the final round, I think his username is build the wall or something

Why 4 cards? Since when?

They're using it for the WBSS to pick the guy that goes through in the event of the regular 3 judges scoring a draw. The official result for the sanctioning bodies would still be a draw, I think, and a champion would get to keep his strap if the 4th judge went against him but one guy would have to progress. In the event of it still being a tie even with the 4th judge they do a countback.

No, Dorticos is a 1-2 puncher, the worse to go against southpaws. Gassiev has great left hooks to the body and to the head to punish Usyk everytime he tries something

Gass is very strong with a very good punch.But he is also square and has limited am ex.He is s8t up and down don't move his head a lot(but does keep that chin tucked)and is not fast.There was a reason Gass moved back for 1st 4 or so its because Dorticos can PUNCH.He also don't give up his height as easy and he is faster.Now after this fight who knows where he will be mentally more then anything(but he is 31 with 300am fights)but style wise he brings more danger to fight then Gass at least with Usyk.Outside of left to liver Usyk is gonna box and turn him to his right all night.imo

Gassiev and usyk have both confirmed they are moving to HW after the final.

Oh Gassiev, too? That's very interesting, never heard of it, it's not that I don't believe you but do you have some link of him or his team talking about moving up? I'm intrigued.

I agree with you completely. Dorticos is very limited and keeps doing the same thing all over and over. Plus as you said the 1-2 won't work against Usyk.

I have also heard that.It sounds like Bredis too.It sucks because I don't see any of them becoming top 5 heavys but what a cruiser div they make.I know I said it already but I would love to see Bredis v Dorticos with winner getting 1st chance at winner esp if its someone they aint fought yet like Usyk v Dorticos

Yea that's kinda tough too see but maybe not impossible if you see EVERY close round for Dorticos.IDK it was a close fight I had 7-4 with Gass winning last 3 to pull out a lead.Now had the fight went another 8secs and he STILL had Dorticos winning then it must be his mother.

Dorticos is not just 1-2 puncher, his punches are slow (albeit heavy) and his right is either straight or straight with little sideway swinging. No uppercuts at all. Hucks? Barely. His right was ricocheting from Gas' block.

Left was OK though: jab and body shot.

Oh now Briedis too? Lol, well i wish them guys nothing but the best and I will surely root for all of them 3 because I love the shorter, compact fighters, but I kinda agree with you. I mean I see Usyk and Gassiev being successful, Usyk because of his footwork, quickness and technique, and Gassiev because of his agressiveness, power and strenght (but at the same time would be hughly undersized, so may need to add the headmovement), but Briedis would probably have less success because we saw he was already smaller than Usyk, so imagine him against Joshua, Wilder or in-shape-Fury. He would be handicapped against the Heavyweights by the lack of size coupled with his non agressive style (because in my mind most of the smaller guys have to be agressive in order to have some success against the heavies).

Secondly it would suck for the Cruiserweight division because it's currently the best division in the sport, followed by Lightheavy.
