**** Kirk's ESB Championships 2011 ****

I guess Fury by KO. Don't think it's been added though.

Yeah, McEwan-Ouma fight isn't happening:

 

Mayweather TKO
Alvarez TKO
Vargas KO

 

Morales UD
McEwan UD
Fury TKO

 

Gimme Morales UD, Floyd... um... TKO late, Alvarez TKO & Vargas UD, thank you! :thumbsup

Go Vic!

 

Mah **** it.. change my (tackle's) pick to Floyd ud..

 

Still rooting for Ortiz I take it?

 

and still think he's going to win to be honest. Just not putting my championship belt on the line with the odd's he's facing. Plenty of 50/50 in the near future where I can risk losing my position.



WAR ORTIZ!

 

Oh hell nawww!

You (I mean your friend's friend) better stick with Ortiz or I'll kick kick your Adam's apple off your neck. (with all due respect sir, of course).

Coward.

That's right, everyone expects Victor (who comes of his biggest win 5 months ago) to drop the old, inactive (only 2 fights in the last 3½ years) Floyd within a couple of rounds, but I'm not so sure.
Ortiz might have the edge on power, age and activity but Floyd is deceptively fast and has a rather good (I believe underrated) defence.
Yes he's rusty, old, lost the urge and probably only fights for the money but he is a rather good boxer in contrary to popular believe.

This is how I see the fight go down...
Ortiz start off strong, and may even drop Floyd in the early rounds (like everyone expects), but Floyd won't stay down if he goes.
After a while Floyd shed off his ringrust and starts countering his younger foe more and more often. Ortiz will get demoralized after a while and starts to get careless... missing even more shots and taking bigger counters in return and it may even cause him to suffer a knockdown down the line.
The last round will show Victor going all out searching for the KO, and that can cause it happening but for either side.

At the end it probably will be a

, wich can differ pretty much because of the possibility of KD's.

People here may probably say I'm crazy for picking Floyd Joy jr. in this bout, but I'm sticking to it! :bart
