8/14 DAZN: Vergil Ortiz Jr vs Egidijus “Mean Machine” Kavaliauskas

[klutch2381]

There are no perfect fighters. All fighters have holes. Crawford is a very slow starter and to be serious Ortiz would be the most dynamic offensive guy he’s ever fought. Hell, Mean Machine knocked down Crawford too. Crawford is also not Pernell Whitaker or some shyt either. Both guys could probably hurt the other, and Ortiz would not just give up easily. You can tell by his overall disposition and fighting style. Make that shyt happen, and let the best man win. Boxing has wayyyyyy too fukking many fights not happening between top guys because of “hypothetical” wins. Lace ‘em up and prove it in the ring.

In terms of who I actually think would win, I will say I don’t think any of the guys fighting at 147 currently “easily” beat Ennis or Ortiz, right now. Those are some bad boys. Nobody that fights at 147 currently is going to get in the ring and destroy them in a round or two. They’re clearly world class fighters.

Impressive from Ortiz as he battled through getting hurt too and I'd like to see the Bud fight in the near future but until I see no evidence of Crawford showing his age I'm picking him in this one. Ortiz leave enough opening for Crawford to find and exploit. Ortiz is very disciplined and his handspeed is great though, gonna be a stern test for Bud too

 

[Master Teacher]

147 belongs to boots, none of the guys can fukk with him its only a matter of time

He has too many skills, has defensive, speed, and power, to go with his physical attributes of being tall and long for the division, I can see him unifying 147 and then grabbing the 154 belt from Charlo, and having a mega fight with Spence at 154

I think Spence will fight Ugas Manny winner then crawford and move to 154

I think Crawford retires after spence fight win or lose

Bud Slumps Ortiz … highlight reel

I'm not suprised at the more power part, but more speed you say?

I mean I saw enough in the Hooker fight to show me that Crawford vs Ortiz is a 50-50 fight, if Crawford-Porter doesn't happen I would love to see Crawford-Ortiz next.

 

[Knicksman20]

I really like Ortiz, but Crawford dismantles him if they fight next IMO

Not without a couple of scary moments or even Bud getting dropped lol

Lol bruh you know as well as I do if Crawford can't get Ortiz out of there early, Ortiz probably gonna run downhill on Crawford.

True bro lol. But I think at this point in their careers, Bud would beat him because of the experience factor & he can give Ortiz different looks.

Make no mistake bro, Ortiz would be a handful for as long as the fight lasts. I wouldn't even be shocked if Ortiz clipped him because of Bud's defensive issues

Funny thing is watching them both fight Mean Machine, Ortiz was the more composed fighter compared to Crawford. He also looked more technically sound as well. One thing is not debateable at all though and that is Ortiz has a MUCH better jab than Crawford. He was busting Mean Machine's ass with that jab, shooting it out there looking like Kovalev with it. After seeing Brook bust Crawford up in 2 rounds with his jab I don't know.

I can agree with the experience part. Ortiz seems to start every fight jittery and anxious, like he is too excited. Once he calmed down and composed himself he high key made easy work out of Mean Machine.

You're definitely underrating Crawford's grit. Bud can bite down and bang just like ortiz can. He's also better defensively and has the better chin. Ortiz can definitely hurt bud but I think bud will be able to hurt him worse and more often.
