    Pryor, close but clear... Bad style matchup for the great Carlos Ortiz... he was such a smart fighter, very adaptable and clever but in this one he's dealing with a guy who is both faster and more powerful than himself, with an offense that really demands from his opponent either A) serious, accurate power and punch placement or B) incredible speed and defensive slickness... Ortiz is not powerful enough to back Pryor off of him and while his skills were superb, he's not fast enough to consistently make Pryor miss... I could see Ortiz changing up his strategy several times during the fight and having success, but every time Pryor would eventually start to puncture the strategic bubble and force Ortiz to change his stripes again... I like Pryor 9-6... Ortiz was really more comfy at 135

    Yeah Pryor via UD is the right call. He was too fast and put on so much pressure and I don't think at 140 Ortiz had enough to back him up.
