Timothy Bradley Vs Victor Ortiz: Who Wins ??

[Spicoli]

Pugilistic see-saw on this one.Ortiz looks the part of a man on a mission progressing at a rapid rate on track for Championship status.Has received massive exposure and great promotion after some rocky moments outside of the ring and has done so in impressive,definitive fashion.Personally I believe their are a couple of guys in our ranking that I'd favor him over.Namely Torres and Ngoudjo.He is very explosive and if/when he gets a guy hurt,Its curtains .The blitzing of Mighty Mike put him at the forefront and others on notice.This would be a great scrap but first and foremost for the young Ortiz is what may be a decent quiz when he fights Maidana.I like this kid alot.And he 'looks the goods'.

But......and there is always a but.I'm going with Bradley.To me....It comes down to all around professional experience and rounds traveled.I think Ortiz is in need of rounds.Save for a 10 round drubbing of somewhat spent shell casing Emmanuel Clottey,he has not really had to trudge through the trenches in a late round affair against a sturdy,well honed top notch caliber fighter like Bradley.Hes not fighting utter tomato cans but hes also not fighting world beaters.Of course you cannot fault a guy for knocking his opposition flat on their respected wallets early in a fight.But I have to go with the late round experience here.Bradley is one that does not do a single thing in spectacular fashion.....but he does most if not all in good order.His chin is solid,more importantly is is mental make-up as when he rose off the deck from The Holt KD.Two big factors will be Ortizs southpaw approach and his guaranteed early onslaught against a Bradley.But I think Bradleys work rate,conditioning and fresh off of three straight wins over very solid opposition on the big stage have me leaning his way over the distance.Coffee x 2.

the workrate could be big, if his chin holds up and I wouldn't be shocked at all if it did Bradley could outwork him. Ortiz would probably land the cleaner shots, certainly the harder shots, but he's a patient somewhat methodical guy, not a bad thing necessarily but Bradley could win rounds on workrate.

You might just be right on with the cleaner shots,especially straight.Holt landed that blinding bomb on Bradley and I think Ortiz has the mentality of a finisher.He looks to want to take a guy out .

I pick Bradley to win over Ortiz... I even pick Maidana to defeat Ortiz...
