RE: Heavyweight Division - shamrock - 10-18-2015 Die, fighting off their lats, the full repertoire. RE: Heavyweight Division - diehard - 10-18-2015 What's a lat? RE: Heavyweight Division - tm7 - 10-19-2015 (10-18-2015, 12:37 PM)diehard Wrote: Former heavyweight world title challenger Kubrat Pulev (21-1, 11 KOs) won an eight round unanimous decision over George Arias (56-14, 42 KOs). Pulev looked very ordinary and slow as anyone. RE: Heavyweight Division - Boxingfan25 - 10-19-2015 George Arias is Durable but i thought Pulev should of stopped him. Even Hughie fury had him hurt a few times when they fought and Hughie isnt known for his punching power. Anyway was Pulev's first fight back since his defeat to Klit so perhaps a bit of ring rust there and just wanted to get back to that winning feeling. RE: Heavyweight Division - gothenaki - 10-20-2015 Someone at Boxrec must be having a laugh, surely.. WBA 11th ranked heavy Mark "The Dominator" De Mori is listed as fighting Mehmet Karaka, a 5"8 guy with a 2/7 record who weighed 73kg last time out, last year. He has fought as low as 63kg... De Mori is ranked above Teper, JP and AJ by the WBA RE: Heavyweight Division - gothenaki - 10-21-2015 It was a mistake. Karaka fighting Eric De Mori. Mark back to fighting TBA 4 days out RE: Heavyweight Division - diehard - 10-22-2015 Ortiz to make quick first defense of WBA title Looks like WBA “interim” heavyweight champion Luis “The Real King Kong” Ortiz (23-0, 20 KOs) will defend his world title against Bryant “By-By” Jennings (19-1, 10 KOs) on December 19 at the Turning Stone Resort in Verona, NY. Ortiz will be making the first defense of his WBA world championship belt just two months after winning it via three round KO against overmatched Matias Ariel Vidondo last Saturday night at Madison Square Garden. Jennings’ last fight was a decision loss to Wladimir Klitschko, who holds the IBF and WBO titles, plus the “super” version of the WBA world championship. HBO will televise. RE: Heavyweight Division - diehard - 10-24-2015 Bryant Jennings/Luis Ortiz on for December Olly Campbell - October 23, 2015 - 11 comments America’s former world title challenger, Bryant Jennings (19-1, 10ko), will square off against undefeated Cuban, Luis Ortiz (23-0, 20ko) on December 19 in New York, in what is set to be an intriguing clash of heavyweight contenders. Ortiz’s promoter Oscar De La Hoya continues his quest to provide fan-friendly fights, matching the 6′ 4″ southpaw and WBA [interim] champion with the Gary Shaw promoted Jennings, who fans last saw in April, giving a good account of himself in defeat against long-time champion, Wladimir Klitschko. Ortiz recently blitzed Mathias Ariel Vidondo in exciting style to pick up his interim strap, taking just 3 rounds on the Golovkin/Lemieux undercard to dispatch his South American foe, and De La Hoya has wasted no time meeting with Shaw to set up the clash on the HBO “Boxing After Dark” card. “With a mix of speed, power and amateur pedigree that is second-to-none, Luis Ortiz has quickly established himself as a force in the heavyweight division,” De La Hoya said as the fight was announced. “Luis is so hungry to continue his rise in the division that he has agreed to fight an enormously talented opponent in Bryant Jennings just two months after [his] destruction of Matias Vidondo.” They were sentiments shared by the 36 year old Ortiz himself. “To headline an HBO event and fighting a former world title contender like Jennings is what I have been preparing my whole career for,” he said. “I know that after this fight people will know that I deserve a shot at becoming the heavyweight champion of the world. I think Jennings doesn’t even know what he’s stepping into on Dec. 19.” Jennings proved that despite entering into his fight with Klitschko a relative novice back in April, he does indeed have enough to compete at the top of the division, and is thriving off the challenge the unbeaten southpaw will present him in December. “I’m excited to be getting back in the ring against Luis Ortiz, another big heavyweight,” he said. “He’s coming off an impressive win, and he thinks he’s at the top of his game. These are the typical type of opponents I like to showcase my skills against. “I’ve come a long way since my last fight against Klitschko, and I have continued to train with a fierce intensity. When you suffer defeat for the first time, you learn things about yourself you never knew. “I’ve improved a great deal on all aspects of my game, both mentally and physically. The world will see a great fight when I square off against Ortiz. That I can guarantee you. I’ll be driving the WBA [interim] belt back home to Philly,” he added. RE: Heavyweight Division - Boxingfan25 - 10-24-2015 I think Ortiz wins this. Jennings wont have the power to hurt him let alone KO him. As we all know Jennings has long arms and hes going to need them to TRY and keep Ortiz out of range but to me Ortiz seems very focused and hungry and that makes him even more dangerous. I suspect Jennings will be constantly moving in this fight as theres no way hes going to stand and trade with Ortiz. Ortiz by KO. RE: Heavyweight Division - diehard - 10-24-2015 This should be a good one. Ortiz, at 36 years old, hasn't fought anybody. But this is what I like: two top contenders facing off against one another. |
