Maybe Ortiz wins, that is my pick but damn, by August he will have fought 2 rounds in 2 years. He better get some heavy duty sparring sessions. Sugar Ray Leonard brought in contenders after his very long layoff before the Hagler fight to set up 10 round sparring sessions to emulate fights. Ortiz needs to do something like that. 2 rounds in two years is asking a lot. Get in one more fight between now and August or get some contenders to spar him.

Hasn't been active obviously because of his health issues outside the ring but I still see Ortiz stopping Tzyu probably in 7-8 rounds. Think he'll end up walking on to a shot and getting took out

With this being his third camp at RGBA in 2024, I think he be prepared well enough to fight Tszyu in August 3.

Looking forward to the fight.

they match well but if and i mean if Virgil is back in a healthy state of body and mind he will end the fight by round number 4 or five. But i still wonder about his health and going rounds would show more then anything on that count. All that just makes the fight more interesting and the Zoo well what do you take away from a lose ? A learning experience for sure a gut check without a doubt but now he has someone who will cut him down by way of pure power if he is in the right state of body and mind. Yea a lot can happen from now till August and it just might before the fight.

Ortiz is used to ending his fights early. Tsyzu could take him to deep waters and win.

Tszyu far too good for Ortiz Jr.

You obviously don't know Tszyu very well. Ortiz will be the one getting KO'd.
