can malik scotts speed and ring movement give luis ortiz problems ?

Its not his chin that's going to get him stopped it's his heart, he will go in there looking for a soft spot on the canvas to lay down

 

Scott was barely able to hang on and defeat an aging Thompson.... That should answer your question.

 

Not a chance. Hell be in retreat from the opening bell, and I could see him duplicating his dive in his fight with Wilder in this fight too!

 

If Ortiz wants to KO him in 1 ala Kayode he'll do it... There's nothing Scott can do to stop him.

 

Yeah I agree.. I doubt it goes past 3 rounds.

 

Hopefully we never see Scott in a big fight again after this.

 

No..

 

He won a couple of others. Scuba Scott is a professional sparring partner who was barely able to beat an old man.

 

I think Scott's style does represent a different challenge for Ortiz who has so far impressed against opponents who have stood right in front of him.

Will Scott win? No, he doesn't have the mental fortitude to do so, at some point he will unravel. But he may ask some questions of Ortiz, maybe even expose a relative weakness.

 

I'm looking for Scott to force Ortiz to show more of what has. His style could present some problems if Ortiz just comes in there with no gameplan because he thinks Scott will fold at any time. Also Malk Scott was winning every round easy against Thompson, but got caught with something that didn't even look that hard. Main reason why it's unlikely he'll see the end of this fight but if he has a good performance it could get interesting.

 

Probably. I assume Scott will take some rounds from Ortiz.

But Ortiz hits heavy and we've seen that even light hitters can put Scott down pretty hard.

Eventually Ortiz is going to catch Scott with a good hit and then it should be over.

 

I believe Scott will look good and can hang with Ortiz until the inevitable scuba dive.
If Ortiz is behind late in the fight, I expect him to just walk trough Scott's punches and takes him out anyway.
