Well you never know what you get with Dzinziruk, but most of the time he struggles with smaller, swarming type fighters, who wing their punches like Lujan, Konency or even Julio for a few rounds, but he can look pretty awesome, when somebody fights upright, so he can jab, counter and circle. Unlike most Eastern Europeans he also has the variety of punches to hit Kirkland from everywhere, but it´s also possible that Kirkland´s pressure will be too much to handle for Dzinziruk. I´d love to see it. Ortiz vs. Kotelnik would be an interesting chess match, that would tell us a lot about Ortiz boxing ability and punch. Guess it would be a competitive fight with Kotelnik losing a close decision.
REED would SLIGHTLY Favor Santos, but his Chin ALWAYS Gives a Chance to an Opponent that can Punch a Bit... REED:hammert:
certainly, I am in no way making an emphatic statement, but I like his straight punches and natural tendency to counter against the wild Kirkland itd be a real interesting fight
I like what Ann Wolfe is doing, but in my eyes Kirkland is a bum. That dude to me in my eyes has no skills. Yea he puts hella pressure but his defense sucks and he's so damn sloppy on the offensive end. However the dude has a strong will, but at some point his will, will get him beat due to his lack of skills. I'll Holla 5000
it was very high quality.....i was really impressed by Dzindziruk, and have been a little disappointed that he hasn't really kicked on since ....that is all i have seen on him, and on that showing i'd say he has far too much class for Kirkland Ortiz-Kotelink......i'd pick Ortiz but it is a real step up.....Kotelink is a smart dude.....fortunately for Ortiz, he doesn't hit too hard......Ortiz should outwork Kotelink..........it should really tell us how good Ortiz really is....just by winning he'd prove himself as one of the top 140 lbers......winning impressively would suggest that he is a major talent who could soon feature in the ppv stakes
I am kind of in agreement with Bigdawg about Kirkland. I dont know that I would call him a bum, but I do think he is sort of a Frank "The Animal" Fletcher flame out waiting to happen. He is too easy to hit and once a tough and skillfull pro with some balls starts hitting him back he will get taken apart
REED's Compared Kirkland to a Slightly BETTER Version of Julian Letterlough, which is VERY Similar to How Frank "The Animal" Fletcher PLIED his Pugilistic Trade, STYLISTICALLY... REED:hammert:
REED just Saw David Lopez Beat Michael Walker Last Year N Ft. Worth...Walker's Not a Complete BUM, but he's Basically a LAY-UP for Kirkland... 5 Rounds Max... REED:mj:
Im hearing John-Juarez 2 and the other fight is trying to be done in San Antonio but I dont think John wants to go back to Texas anytime soon.
Dan Rafael is reporting that Victor Ortiz will be fighting Marcos Maidana, who recently lost a split dec. to the guy he was thought to have been fighting originally, Andreas Kotelnik:
Good decision by the WBA to make Ortiz/Maidana an interim title fight. :flip::flip: It´s not like Kotelnik just defeated his mandatory Maidana and apparently for whatever reason Salita is already the next mandatory. Boxing is truly the most fucked up "sport". So within a year Kotelnik has two mandatories, and an interim champion in waiting by following their rules.
Kirkland is in jail right now, isn't he? http://sports.espn.go.com/sports/boxing/news/story?id=4084358
