    Who do like in this one? My head says Ortiz but after Stanions win over Butaev, I can't count him out. The guy is tough as nails.

    It all depends on how bad Vergil's struggles with rhabdomyolysis were and how he recovers from it. If he's back full strength, then I expect him to win by late stoppage. But if he's even slightly off his game, Stanionis pulling off the win wouldn't shock me.

    Hopefully 3rd time rescheduling is a charm. This fight is too meaningful to never happen.

    Yup, if he dos continue he should at least hire a top of the line nutritionist or something.

    I think he's stressing his body out far too much. And I've said I thought him and Boots would both take over the division. But in light of everything I think 147 is too much for his body.

    The winner of this needs to fight Boots Ennis to establish the top dog at 147. I doubt that will come together but one can wish.

    Crawford and Spence are no longer in the picture.

    Great fight that will finally happen. Two if the best WWs there are. I favor Ortiz slightly but Stan is one durable fighter and very strong.
