Vergil Ortiz vs. Fredrick Lawson | DAZN - January 6, 2024

ya he legit looks like a fighting grandpa

[margaret thatcher]

barosso 40 years old, been years back he was stopped by ant crolla, now arguably at his career peak. grandpa ages in reverse (well except for his appearance)

Like an old man filter, that was all the boost I needed to see Ortiz,

Ohara Davies

[Perseus]

Lol.

I actually expected a good, competitive fight on that one.
Doubt anyone argues that stoppage.

The alternative of a muscle bound hype job

[handsofstone]

DAZN ask Oscar one question about Davies getting beat then right onto Ortiz

Ismael Barroso??

[JxhDel.]

Ohara and left hands, timeless love story... some justice for the wine-aging Barroso

Talking about superlights, it's absurd Barboza haven't had a title shot yet

Raul Curiel is a sniper

[margaret thatcher]

juan carlos ramirez - turned down 2m from top rank to fight teo. now with golden boy

what do we think about that? did he deserve more? does he want eeasier ffights?

[skanksta]

Still surprising that OHD can't beat a 40 y/0 that was stopped by Crolla @ LW when unbeaten about 8 (?) years ago..!

Think he's nuts - they all say "I want the big fights" and they mean "big paydays" - hard to see how he gets more than $2m anywhere ??
No reason he couldn't win either.

seems like one of those dudes who came out of the womb looking like an old man but then never got any older from there

[margaret thatcher]

2m seems like a good offer to me. maybe he wants to be the star and got the vibe that he was being matched as an opponent there, i dunno

[margaret thatcher]

gabe rosado, another guy who doesnt look any older to me now than when i first saw him years ago. and his face has been around the block!

I think he's gambling on getting a Garcia fight which has the potential to be worth way more than 2 million.

[margaret thatcher]

ah yes, forgot about ry ry

hopefully vergil has his sh!t together now that he's at 154

[margaret thatcher]

this is actually a middleweight fight? vergil 156, lawson 152

[skanksta]

But $2m tho ! For a 140 pounder !

You could just about retire on that, plus double or treble more if you win.

[skanksta]

Now that was early - you've gotta get hurt a bit if you're fighting Verge..!

[margaret thatcher]

um

[margaret thatcher]

wtf

[margaret thatcher]

tony weeks, same guy who stopped barosso-romero

[Perseus]

Ok.
THAT was early.......
......but let's not forget Weeks has had at least one fighter die because he let him go the distance.

[JxhDel.]

Vergil is back and in full health, but boy, that stoppage...

[handsofstone]

What the fckn hell is Tony Weeks playing at? Ortiz hurts Lawson backs him on the ropes then steps in as Ortiz is laying in trying to get the breakthrough Lawson's tucking up blocking nearly everything then Weeks just casually walks in and stops it, , genuinely one of the worst stoppages I've ever seen, I'm stunned

[skanksta]

Ok.
THAT was early.......
......but let's not forget Weeks has had at least one fighter die because he let him go the distance.

absolutely - there were a lot of deaths in British rings and we got the "British Stoppage".
Too early for sure, but refs don't wanna be the guy that lets one go on too long.
