This was horrific man. I mean we've see 'bad' but this smells like theft and politricks.
This is definitely the robbery of the year.
errrr wot.... I didnt even pay attention to the announcement of the scorecards as I thought it was a formality, I went to the kitchen, was it really a draw :S
That's interesting the star gets robbed :S
This should be a good one. I got Ortiz, the big baby killah!
Once the bell rings Ortiz looks 15 years faster than in that interview!
WAR JENNINGS...and ffs move your head! ;D
Ortiz hand speed man.Wow
oh wow ortiz looks good, jennings will do well to survive this one :S
Hahah,I think the HW landscape has been a bit different than we thought, perhaps;D
looks like it ! I hope ortiz makes the most of this and gets into the world title picture soonQuote:

Nice job from Jennings to get back into it, working the inside better and took that round. Good fight.
Oh man, let it rain. Ortiz a scary type puncher
Jennings better hope ortiz runs out of steam because it's not looking good for him right now :S
Ortiz is built like Larry Holmes. Even the high trunks
Jennings thinks Ortiz is going to grind down and pressuring like it. Given Jennings the pre 2016 Mercer award for soaking that shot up.
Ortiz kills it at range, long as he doesn't let Jennings lay on the inside he looks awesome.
Really nice win for ortiz, hats off to the guy ! he looks like a bad man, getting old though so I hope he gets the really big fights soon !
Great finish, Ortiz is a scary guy. Crazy that Jennings got up from that, and like Kellerman was saying, totally coherent throughout the whole finish, don't usually see that.
the translator seems so intense when he is speaking to kellerman :S
Is Wilder still fighting TBA next month..or the guy Jennings demolished??? Call Kong. Old guy has tremendous hands
As bad as the HW division has been, the division itself can't afford to drag out potential big marchups. Ortiz will definitely get an immediate push.Quote:

Looks like Jennings was riding high...a little too high after his "impressive" loss against. He thought his same approach would work for him. Didn't work out that way. Almost no head movement at all.
Chagaev vs Browne is like a C- level fight, Kong vs the winner would be a total waste of time. Kinda doubt Wilder will be in a hurry to sign for this one, though it would be an awesome fight. Hard to know what should be next for KONG. Whoever he fights, he should definitly shave his head and wear diaper style drunks, then crawl during the ringwalk with an enormous rattle. If I were his promoter I would double his purse to do it.
You're a bit of a deviant aren't you?Quote:

Thats because Tyson has said it himself. Not that he would give him the most trouble specifically but that hes in the who needs him club. Very good but would not generate big money. Tyson has had his eye on him from afar.
Nice fight. Ortiz is a classy fighter & on that performance is right up there.
I wouldn't give chagaev or Browne much chance against him. As far as natural talent goes he may be the best heavyweight on the planet. I think a povetkin vs Ortiz fight would restore everyone's faith in heavyweight boxing
Ortiz was impressive (as far as heavyweights go). Two weeks in a row we've had good heavyweight fights. Amazing.
I expect Wilder and Fury's mob won't go near him with a barge pole.
I thought Jennings would have eked out a decision in this one. But Ortiz has power AND tremendous skill. Something you don't see much of in the HW division anymore. I guess if we want to have real, birth-born heavyweight champions, we have to look outside of America with these manufactured heavyweights and look to Latin America, the Caribbean and some parts of Eastern Europe.
I don't think Wilder would be able to take Ortiz IF Wilder has been struggling with the likes of guys like Duhappas and Molina.
:cool:
The problem with cuban heavyweights is while in Cuba they are poor and live and breath boxing. As soon as they leave Cuba they seem to over indulge and not train. Ortiz is gifted but he still looked lazy last night. He could have stepped up and taken Jennings out early but was happy to have breaks with Jennings leaning in on him.Quote:

MAybe, but does Ortiz not look like a giant infant?Quote:

LOL your smugness is failing you.Quote:

Yeah he reminds me of a mix between Foreman, Holmes and even Berbick... All with the face of Laurence Fishburne ;DQuote:

Jennings tried to do what was needed by getting inside but he hung around in there a little too long.
This division has really heated up. Lets hope for exciting times ahead.
I think Jennings v Chisora would be interesting.
I was impressed with Ortiz' footwork and movement. Once he found his range (around the 5th) he started to take over.
