Kevin Kelley vs Orlando Salido

Salido by ko

 

Wow what a war that would have been! Both tough as nails warriors but I might have to favor Salido, who will use dirty tactics to win by any means necessary. This will be similar to Kelley’s fight with Alejandro Gonzalez and I can see Salido doing similar work, wearing down Kelley to a stoppage win.

 

I think Kelley might knock Salido out cold.

 

Really good fight. I think Kelley was the more talented of the two but he tended to get dragged into wars so I've no doubt that would have happened here as well.

Salido is the more durable fighter so in a slug fest, I'm going for him but he'd probably have to get off the floor at least once to do it.

Guaranteed classic this one!

 

Salido in an absolute classic. His underrated shifting footwork would allow him to constantly bring the fireworks, and we know how Kelley, for all his talent, got dragged into wars. He would bite and get ground down imo.

 

Kev was never the same after the Gonzalez fight as he was dropped numerous times after AG including by a mediocrity or 2. But before that, he was the real deal. If he avoids the tear up, I have him by decision as his skills were very good. It all depends if he allows himself to be dragged in.

 

Hope ur right. I always liked the Flushing Flash.

 

Yeah you're probably right. One can only hope, though

 

Ya. He was never the same after Gonzalez.

 

Did you score the Loma fight?
