This is a no brainer for me if I were in the states.
Ortiz Tszyu is a main event, FOTY, violent fade on paper
You got two action fighters in Pitbull and Rayo, plus you know the Mexican fan base is gonna have the atmosphere turned up for Pitbull.
You get the chance to watch a generational talent put in work at the tail end of his career, in a dangerous fight in a fourth division.
Plus you get to watch two fantastic talents in Andy Cruz AND David Morrell.
There's something that gets lost in translation, between live boxing and watching it on television. You get a fuller sense of what exactly sets apart these warriors from the rest of the world, and even their peers.
To have seen a 6'7" boor move gracefully on his toes and swiftly evade punches, defying what you thought was physically possible.
To hear an entire arena cheer on a 40 year old Filipino before he cuts down the ring in a fury and lands one precise shot to drop his opponent.
To be in the nosebleeds in Brooklyn, and hearing the pandemonium when Wilder pulls the miracle right hand that put Ortiz to sleep, justly at midnight.
You really see how close these fighters get to being otherworldly. On TV it's dominant, in person it's otherworldly. On this card, you get to witness 5,6 great fighters in one night.
The only question mark is the price. I usually try to get my tickets on the second hand market, but this event is sure to sellout. I'd try my hardest to buy a ticket as soon as they're out.
