Bradley supports Zayas to upset Vergil Ortiz Jr.: Does the highest site defend their WBO champion?

Tim Bradley says he chooses WBO’s mid -weight champion Xander Zayas to defeat Vergil Ortiz Jr. If that fight is done. He believes that Zayas (23-0, 13 kos) is too technical, young, and large for Ortiz Jr. (23-0, 21 kos) to deal with his talent.

The best site may not share one Bradley confidence in Zayas, as he is sure he made his first defense of his WBO 154-weight title in December against the recently cast out peripheral welter weight competitor Young santillan In Puerto Rico.

“I’m going with the young Xander Zayas. He’s going to amaze the world. He’s going to show that talent,” said Tim Bradley on his channelChoose Xander Zayas to defeat Vergil Ortiz Jr. If the fighting is done. “We already know what Vergil Ortiz can do. We’ve seen him against men who can box. Xander Zayas, that’s what he does.”

Xander would be desperate against Vergil Ortiz Jr., as is the case against other fighters in the top 15. Even in the top 15 WBO positions, Zayas would not stand a chance against these five competitors:

• Jaron ennis
• Israil Madrimov
• Serhii Bohachuk
• Erickson lubi
• Charles Conwell

“He doesn’t have the biggest power in the world, but do you know what he does? That boy is tactical good, he has fresh legs, he is strong, big too, he has the advantage of reaching, and he knows how to keep that distance and box from the outside,” Bradley said about Zayas.

Zayas is actually not good at keeping the battle on the outside, as it tired of moving, and it is easy to break the ring on it. The slow -footed Jorge Garcia held him often, but he did not have the right training to fight through the excess clinching he was doing. The referee failed to do his job by tackling the Nonstop holding. It was beyond too much, and should have led to point deductions. For the highest site, this was the ideal situation with that referee working Zayas-garcia fighting rather than someone who does his job.

“He’s going to tie up ortiz when he is close. He’s going to give him hell, ”said Bradley.” I’m going with Xander Zayas on this. Make the fighting occur, the highest position and a golden boy. Xander Zayas is there now. His confidence is at his highest ever, and he is a belt holder as well. Make the fighting happen. I choose Xander Zayas to upset Vergil Ortiz. “

Clinching by Xander will not be enough to prevent Vergil Jr from banter on it and score hit out in this fight. That tactic worked for Zayas against Jorge Garcia, but it will not be enough for him to catch Ortiz away. He will need real crime and power to get a shot while winning.

Those are areas where Xander is lacking. Besides, if Top Rank actually thought Zayas could beat A levels like Vergil Jr., they wouldn’t have gone in the direction of having him to fight for the WBO hollow belt. They would have gone straight to the top by pairing it against IBF Bakhram Murtazaliev champion or Sebastian Funora Champ. They know what they have in Zayas, and understand that he must be defended so that he was the crown trophies.

“Vergil, hopefully they make the favorite in the fighting because we’re going to make a lot of money. There will be a lot of sad faces after they see Vergil Ortiz going down from the young, determined, hungry, hungry,” said Bradley.

It’s good to see that Bradley remains loyal to the peak position by supporting their creation, Xander. He would look like a betrayal on his behalf if he opened Vergil JR open over Zayas. It would be interesting to know what Bradley’s true view is about this fighting. His siding with unproven Zayas, which strikes lightly, after his performance against Jorge Garcia looks like he doesn’t want to disrupt things.
