The WBC lightweight championship is now vacant

My mistake. :good

 

Latino boxing is my favourite PJ...really enjoy the whole history of it over the many decades.
I probably have better knowledge of Mexican boxers than Aussies just about.

 

And GBP have matched Ortiz with Nate Campbell. Campbell might be over the hill but if he isn't, he might make life tough for the kid they wanted to build as the next Oscar. They obviously signed Nate to be an "opponent" but that doesn't mean it can't back fire.

 

I think Ortiz could very well be in trouble here...GBP better hope Campbell is very over the hill.

 

Well they signed Nate and it wasn't with a view to the future. They obviously took him on to feed to a young gun.

If Ortiz gets beat his star just about fizzles out. I'm hoping Nate lays some heavy stuff on him but at 140, Nate might be pushing the proverbial up hill.

 

Yeah i tend to agree its a tough 1.
If Nate lays some hurt as u said the upset can definitely happen.
Nate looked very poor last time out...tho against a top class boxer.

 

well that took about 5 minutes and is a complete joke. Champion in recess is ridiculous anyway. But Valero just fought a couple days ago, there has been some rumored talk about a move up, but of course that's nothing but talk at this point. And he's not the first fighter to suffer from a deep cut.

The WBC can at least let this play out for awhile instead of lining up the next sanctioning fee and further devaluing their belts.

 

Witter was a world Class switch hitter and had no joy with him , Witter switch hit so many times it was impossible to describe him at times .
