Luis Ortiz vs. Bryant Jennings HBO December 19

[ykdadamaja]

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.

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.

Because of how bad the division is, we see Ortiz as this fighter with great skill. Remember that Jennings is very raw and isn't much of a fighter. Ortiz is probably one of the best in the division but still isn't by any means great.
