    2 great fighters at 140. Carlos Ortiz has fought a few times at 140 (against Locche, Loi, Torres, Lane). How does Ortiz handle the size, reach, and skills of Kid Pambele? Cervantes could certainly have his hands full against the Ortiz that dismantled Battling Torres.

    @140 I'm leaning to the man who was proven at that weight. Kid Pambele close decision

    Good matching. Better vs bigger, in considered measure. I’ll take Ortiz.

    Gimme Cervantes by decision. Would have had some good turns of fortune back and forth, but Antonio banks enough rounds to take it … something like 9-6ish.

    He’s simply the better man at 140, which wasn’t Ortiz’s best weight of course.
