Possible fight on Khan Maidana under card also please explain how the fight would g Source:Boxing scene
Why is Kotelnik by KO highly unlikely? Kotelnik has a very accurate right hand and can do damage with accumulation of punches, he did rock Alexander here and there and Ortiz is known for a suspect chin, mental issues and weak skin to get cut. I wouldn't rule out any outcome in this fight.
Kotelnik on an ugly and close decision. He has enough chin to take Ortiz punches and will frustrate Ortiz in the later rounds edging out a close points win.
Ortiz will win clearly imo. Alexander is a guy that recoils into his shots, but he is also very rigid in the way he throws punches and moves, I believe that was a big part of why his defense was so leaky against Kotlenik, however Ortiz is much more fluid, he has better legs to imo, he might be more accurate too, he certainly has more power. Khan did not look great against Kotelnik in the latter part of the fight, but that is because he was sitting on a lead, probably still had reservations about his own chin to.
I did not rule it out but khan was hit flush by kotelnik and not bothered by his punches at all.:deal
Exactly, which is why I voted for it. Ortiz has both a bad chin and a weak heart, I'll go with Kotelnik by stoppage under any circumstances.
I can see it being similar to the Alexander fight with Kotelnik deserving to get the decision, but seeing it go the other way. However if Ortiz adopts Khan's strategy of having a very high work-rate, and refusing to engage in close distant exchanges, then he could easily get a decision. It's a good fight for both guys. Ortiz will put his name back into the LWW contention, by providing an accurate measuring stick to Khan and Alexander. And Kotelnik has a chance to redeem his two recent losses.
Wow would be a great fight to add on the undercard. I'll have to say Ortiz by UD, but you should never count Kotelnik out.
They won't let Kotelnik win. He's not a cash cow like ortiz. We already saw what happened against Alexander
