Ortiz could outpoint him as his footwork and movement is looking pretty slick lately...I expect Ortiz to go at him the same way Khan did, though Ortiz has the power to finish it.
Dont see Ortiz knocking out Kotelnik whatsoever. Can see him outpointing him however though I'd be tempted to put money on Kotelnik.... He'd prob have to really school him to get a decision though..
Good fight. Ortiz will have someone who will come to grind for 12 rounds. If he doesn't fight smart he will regret it as the fight goes on.
great matchup. I'll go with Kotelnik to win. He has an iron jaw and loves to be in trenches. Ortiz not so much. His confidence will be high but his recent opponents have been cannon fodder. Kotelnik will be his first live one since he went belly up against maidana. If ortiz can win by ko, it'll be a real statement.
i fancy an ortiz kayo on this 1 late on in the fight. he'll grind him down slowly with ruthless shots to head and body. there's only so much the human body can take
Ortiz by UD. Kotelnik wont get knocked down or out, He has never been on the canvas as a profession or amateur.
ortiz will work the body alot more. cant recall khan going to body much and aint seen maidana/alexender Vs kotelnik co cant comment but the body work will be the difference in this fight
Like I said Ortiz win by UD, Kotelnik isnt going anywhere. Because Kotelnik has a high guard his body is easy to hit, So yes he will be going to the body.
Think if this fight materialises it could be a decent card, two decent main fights, not to mention Warrens show before it. Roll on Dec 11th.
