Vergil Ortiz Jr v Mean Machine Kavaliauskas on Dazn
One of the better young prospects in boxing going against another top guy tonight. There’s a new class coming to 147. Division is filled with so many names but it sure feels stagnate. Guess Ortiz Jr is better described as legit contender should he dust off Kavaliauskas tonight. He’ll get all he can handle if Mean Machine is close to what he was two fights ago where he rocked and knocked down Bud Crawford. Have a feeling the brutal body work off the jab of Ortiz Jr will ultimately be his undoing but this March has all the makings of action as Ortiz looks for another breakout performance.

Re: Vergil Ortiz Jr v Mean Machine Kavaliauskas on Dazn
I think mean machine is in for a beating here, he looked pretty good v crawford but I think crawford totally underestimated him and thought he'd be no danger and he got caught early... Crawford took over pretty good once he recovered... I think Ortiz will be too quick and powerful and won't be caught complacent.

Another rematch don't see them happen back to back to often. His brother tore thru Isreal 'Don't call my Izzy' Vasquez quick!

He wiped him out pretty good... I love the way these central Americans fight, they're just a bit crazy..
Pretty close fight with rene and the Venezuelan, good watching here

And this is a pretty tactical and calmish fight, I'm thinking the Venezuelan(which is not central America, I know) is ahead so far.

Re: Vergil Ortiz Jr v Mean Machine Kavaliauskas on Dazn
Missed most and Dazn is doing it's whole timing out and hit refresh thing :D. ESPN and Showtime cards kicking off this is too much. Oof wait it's Rau'shee Warren we'll wait ;D.

Here come the judges :wisesmilie:, what do ya think on those cards?

Re: Vergil Ortiz Jr v Mean Machine Kavaliauskas on Dazn
Have to love the temperament of Ortiz Jr. Save the fluff and twitter entitlement tirades we see a lot today ;D. Line em up. Got hit a little v Hooker but behind that hammer jab just brutal. He's gonna learn something with Kavaliauskas
-
Re: Vergil Ortiz Jr v Mean Machine Kavaliauskas on Dazn
I agree I think Ortiz is pretty self aware I think he has the mentality to be a proper world champion... I suspect crawford might have fun with him though hopefully he's young enough to recover from a defeat.

Seemed ok to me, that's a few rounds either way, I wasn't scoring the fight though just watching... Maybe minorly suspicous they all went the same way but I think that might just be looking for problems... No complaint from me and I wanted Nicaraguan skeletor to win!
-
Re: Vergil Ortiz Jr v Mean Machine Kavaliauskas on Dazn
Cagey start but I think Ortiz looks pretty comfortable here, clearly wary of mean machine and he blocked a lot of punches and landed a good one... Good start for Ortiz even though not much happened.
-
Re: Vergil Ortiz Jr v Mean Machine Kavaliauskas on Dazn
Ruh Roh :angryxo4: Ortiz rocked badly tries to give it back
-
Re: Vergil Ortiz Jr v Mean Machine Kavaliauskas on Dazn
Oh bloody ell Ortiz was looking good there and then mean machine gets him good and probably should have had a knockdown... Ortiz came back alright though at the end... But bloody ell Ortiz don't get hit like that m8
-
Re: Vergil Ortiz Jr v Mean Machine Kavaliauskas on Dazn
Ortiz Jr steadying 3rd with the jab. But right off Mean Machine just cleaner and timing the shat on him. Ohhhhh Kava dropped flat on his arse and slides back. Great firefight this one
-
Re: Vergil Ortiz Jr v Mean Machine Kavaliauskas on Dazn
Wahey fun stuff in the third there, I though once again the first 2.30 Ortiz is doing calm and good stuff then he gets hit a bit and mean machine goes for it but Ortiz puts him down this time... Got to say I think I underestimated mean machine a bit with my first post in this thread, he's certainly a good level of dangerous, ortizs defence is worrying for him though.
-
Re: Vergil Ortiz Jr v Mean Machine Kavaliauskas on Dazn
Good stuff from Ortiz at the end of the fourth there, despite his struggles I think Ortiz is doing good here, getting some nice jabs in and landing some good punches too.. But jimeny Christmas twice he has put himself in great danger.
-
Re: Vergil Ortiz Jr v Mean Machine Kavaliauskas on Dazn
Ortiz boxing smart last couple but does think out loud a bit much. Kava sitting down hard waiting for the one but very calculated himself. Don't know what it is Ortiz looks smallish up top frame for the weight. He needs to roll them in down the stretch
-
Re: Vergil Ortiz Jr v Mean Machine Kavaliauskas on Dazn
Ortiz is jabbing good I think, he's getting some good power on it too but this Lithuanian git is really dangerous, really good fight for Ortiz to have, I thibk he's winning but he could get wiped out any moment :S
-
Re: Vergil Ortiz Jr v Mean Machine Kavaliauskas on Dazn
Kava is all about this letting him walk on and both with rattling hard jabs. Ortiz needs that different gear..

I think he's doing good, this git is very dangerous I think better for Ortiz to concentrate on staying calm and getting that defence better, hopefully for vergil this isn't his final form, some good learning here for him if he survives the mean machine.

Re: Vergil Ortiz Jr v Mean Machine Kavaliauskas on Dazn
Oh he's coming for those ribs now. Good combos mix for Ortiz.
-
Re: Vergil Ortiz Jr v Mean Machine Kavaliauskas on Dazn
Wooft a few seconds left and he gets him... Good fight, mean machine is more dangerous than I thought but vergil did well to overcome that second round, stayed calm till he saw the end.. I thought Ortiz had a very good jab, he has to be worried about getting hit like that a few times.. I think crawford will take him apart but I say go for it Ortiz take the loss and come back better

Honestly the way Bud and Arum have conducted big fights it could be years away ;D. I mean really Ortiz just caught him at least Kava scalp wise. Crawford seems to be waiting on contract to run out and needs to shine in his PBC debut with Porter. On a side just sucks Kava didn't get official credit for dropping em both. Hopefully 147 gets it's shat together

Ha yes that's true I didn't even notice that mean machine did mostly put both of them down...
Dazn seem to be pushing pretty hard fro crawford v Ortiz it'll surely happen I think crawford really wants to fight anyone.

True. Given the way huge name matches are going this year then Crawford v Porter get's cancelled Monday ;D:-X. I Love Bud but he's hitting what 35? Time to go all in and take the next gen to the woodshed and walk the walk.
