    Zero percent chance this goes the distance.

    Who ya got? And how likely does the winner get Bud? IIRC Bud has to fight Fundora next whose mandated to face Bud if he wants to keep the WBO/WBC.

    This could end up being an awesome playoff of Bud v Fundora in Spring and Saturdays winner versus Murtazaliev in the Spring..then winners for 154 undisputed in Summer/Fall!

    I was considering betting on Boha here. Any thoughts as to his chances in this? Hes like +250

    The problem is if it does go to the cards he loses if the fight is even close.

    Hmmm.

    Only if you are betting by stoppage for the reason you outlined, no way he gets it on the cards.

    Ortiz , now or never for the “Kid”
    Faster hands
    But boha has a tight defense & is a killer himself!

    Will be a great fight!

    Tough fight for Ortiz but I think he will get the stoppage around 8-9 rounds.

    just saw some footage of vergils pops getting into it with some of bohachuks entourage. never seen sr lose his cool before. vergil sounded pretty salty himself, just before sr took it up a notch. might influence vergils temperament in the ring. fighting with emotion burns up lots of energy. should be violent, though.

    I think they're acting that way through nerves.

    It could, Bohachuk is his toughest challenge imo, but I think Ortiz will keep his Knockout streak alive. At least we're going to see Ortiz' true level in this fight.

    They're very similar fighters. Not identical but very similar styles. Both aggressive, high guard defence, throw a lot of punches, hit hard, and good combination punchers. But Ortiz has faster hands and his combinations are more zippy and I think that alone could prove to be the difference.

    No chance, neither guy waste anytime getting an offensive going. I’m going with Ortiz based on him having a better jab and faster hands.

    Ortiz looks nervous but he wants all the smoke. This should be like 52/48 in favor of Ortiz but I love upsets.

    Love the way the Golden Boy creams his jeans over Ortiz. He may be shitting in them after tomorrow.
