Prediction: Vergil Ortiz on Points
Result: Vergil Ortiz by Points
This was a fun fight overall but Ortiz largely did the better work. My scorecard shows that it was a competitive fight and it was but in terms of rounds scored I may have given Madrimov a bit more credit that I should have. Really impressive win for Ortiz even if I do think Madrimov isn’t as good as the Crawford fight let on.
