Holloway vs Ortega

[chinarice]

Who do you have winning this unquestionable next matchup?

I think Ortega subs him. He is even better than I already thought he was.

 

[The Schmoop]

Ortega looks great. Holloways volume and reach are a lot to handle for anyone at 145. I'd favor Max but then again I didn't think Edgar would have too much trouble with Ortega. I know now that I know nothing.

 

[KoreanZawmbie]

Either Holloway boxes him up, or Ortega chokes him out

It's 50/50 for me.

Holloway would be too much for Ortega at the moment, like Conor/Holloway was for Holloway. But Conor/Holloway 2 would be a different story. I think in time, Ortega/Holloway would be insane. Too early for Ortega now, I think. Holloway's on a whole other level for the time being.

Ortega Pawns him, then subs him...

Extremely tough to pick

Ortega is so hard to definitively pick in every fight.
He loses the entire fight until he randomly wins.

 

[EvilRyu]

holloway destroys him

T-City all day, every day.

Holloway should win quite handily if he doesn't get caught with something.

As a proud Member of the Blessed Era, I will be scared shitless once those two are in the Octagon. I said it to my brother before the fight and during the build, Ortega is a scary motherfucker, If anyone in the top 5 has the best chance at beating Max, it's him.

Holloway has a better boxing and chin than Frankie.He is also the larger man.He should win this.

I think that is the thing. You can beat Ortega throughout and win most of the fight but he is just one of those guys that has the tools to put you away at any time, given the opportunity.

His ground game is some of the best in the UFC, across all weight classes. He has some really good strikes that can hurt people and he is pretty big for the weight class.

I personally think he was a tougher matchup for Frankie than Max would be. I am not saying Frankie would have beaten Max but I think he would have lasted at least a round with him for sure. I was worried in the buildup to the Max/Frankie fight that Max would outwork him on the feet and win a decision.

I was so sure of Frankie years of my life studying videos and I also know nothing brother.

Brian probably takes a little more damage than usual, but subs him.
