[2 Up 2 Down]

I see that a lot of people thought it was boring but I was into it lol I have no problem watching someone dancing around picking shots and countering, and taking someone out of their gameplan.
I've seen actual boring fights when both fighters barely throws any punches

far from boring but was expecting a more engaging fight, maybe i was being too optimistic.
Ortiz had a plan to win but lacked the offensive.

I thought his offense was enough. Lopez didn't do what was needed to increase the engagement for himself.

Teo looked a bit tentative when missing and couldn't hold ortiz in one position,. he lacked the IQ of trapping his opponent.

Looked lost like the Martin fight and the rounds Loma turned it up in their fight.

Btw, this reminded me of when Canelo had trouble catching and cutting off the ring with the human Gazelle Lara. I think it might be difficult to cut the ring off when someone is actively moving both ways laterally and not looking to engage. This is not your ordinary fighter where you can just cut off the ring here and there - this is someone doing everything to avoid interaction. Not the same.

I certainly had Canelo winning that fight btw because there’s no way in hell I’m giving the W to a man literally running and NOT looking to fight his opponent. And yeah, some haters had Lara winning - just like some haters have Ortiz winning now. The right man won tonight though. Anything else is just a reflection of their disdain for Teo.

Has Spence been in any public outings since the loss?

Yeah there's a big difference between fighting someone that's boxing and using legs to set up offense versus someone that's flat out running. I felt Ortiz was running tonight and completely avoiding trading. Teo needs to work on holding his opponent in position once he gets him cornered for sure, but Ortiz spent two minutes at least of every round actively running. It's hard to look good against a talented fighter that's not trying to fight. 117-111 is a ridiculous scorecard but I'm happy with the result. The fighter doing all that move has to look to establish some kind of offense.
