    Whilst they're likely to be not overly competitive, GGG and Gonzalez bless our TV screens this weekend on my dearly beloved Boxnation <3

    This will be a great fight and i was hoping too it would be on UK TV, first fight was class. I know both are past their best but the styles will mix again and will be another barnstormer! Thats if Ortiz turns up on the night.

    Boxnation used to pick up fights last minute but they havent done so for a while. Would rather watch this than any of the other fights on the day to be honest.

    It's just a little pension bump for the two fighters, Ortiz will probably quit again :lol:

    Berto has lost 4 of his last 7 and Ortiz has lost 3 of his last 5.

    What is good about this fight?

    Will be FOTY
    Better than how we all thought Matthysse vs Provodnikov would turn out

    So you dont like watching brawls even if they fighters arent that good?
    Bet you still watch Provodnikov fight and Amir Khan even though hes a bum too

    any fight that makes the late great manny steward say oooom myyyy gawddd is well worth watching a rematch of ! both past it but both fought floyd quite recently and both were box office fighters, id much rather watch this than some of the stuff boxnation picks up ! the only fight i ever saw ortiz show ***** in was the 1st !

    I love watching brawls, I love watching boxing but these two are not interested in boxing any longer, they have no real ambition, they are fighting for money.

    Berto might want a brawl but does Ortiz? Ortiz has a history of quitting or in my opinion not trying so why would I tune in to watch Ortiz quit if the going gets tough?

    Ortiz knows his limitations. He didnt expect to get caught by Collazo and he gave up against Floyd
    I doubt he quits against Berto. Ortiz knows its a winnable war
    You probably watched Cleverly vs Bellew II though
