Lucas Matthysse vs. Roberto Ortiz
Lou Catalano, Staff Writer
“The Machine” is coming off a war with John Molina, who gave an unexpectedly fantastic showing of himself before wilting to Lucas Matthysse’s monster bombs.
I hate picking these types of fights because we don’t know if Ortiz is for real. He’s fought pretty much nobody of note. I’m going to say that Lucas has too much power for him. Matthysse by KO.
Prediction: Matthysse

Roberto Ortiz is 31-0-1 with 24 KOs. I dare you to name one of his opponents. I’ll wait. That’s what I thought. While Ortiz is seemingly a young and powerful fighter, we just don’t know what he will be able to do against a machine.
Lucas Matthysse on the other hand has shown the ability to persevere and also walk through opponents. I think Matthysse gives a Ortiz a taste of his power early on and before you know that will be all she wrote.
Prediction: Matthysse
