[Boxing] Anderson Silva vs Tito Ortiz on September 11

[Darker45]

Wow! What a set of fights Triller is promoting these days. Surely not very impressive but the names are huge enough to draw easy money. It makes me interested still.

Anyway, Silva has definitely the upper hand against Ortiz and Dela Hoya against Belfort. I'm curious why didn't they just pair Silva and Dela Hoya instead and Ortiz and Belfort for the co-main event? I guess it's fairer that way.

Anyway, it's their business. Excited for the odds.

If Tito Ortiz wins he needs to call out Dana White.

That's a fight I might pay to see.

The full fight between Silva and Chavez jr is still in youtube:

As you can see Silva won and he has a good high guard too. Probably after 3 rounds, the wear and tear on Tito Ortiz will show and probably be tired by that time. I don't think this will last and Silva by a knock out win.

@yazher - I doubt that Ortiz can turn the table here, three months ago Silva won so he is the active of the two.

it was very recent that silva won a boxing match yes he is active in both sports. his reach advantage over ortiz will still be a winning advantage for him.
but these are exhibition fights. i doubt it will be listed on betting sports in crypto. this is just for them to make money. Triller Fight Club is for celebrities who can act on the stage like WWE.

I'm an MMA enthusiast but I don't see the fight as exciting.

If they will come back at the octagon, that's more exciting and not just what we can call an exhibition match. But I agree that it was Triller so they will arrange fights and matches that are not expected.

On the other hand, I like the main card between DelaHoya and Belfort because that was an official fight and it will be listed on the professional record.

[TopTort777]

I predict spider to win this fight. It will be hard no to hit Titos giant head 
Will it be entertaining for spectators - only old fans will find it interesting. New mma and boxing fans will most likely skip that event.

Is this true? the Dela Hoya vs Belfort will be a full boxing and professional rule? I thought the commission or whatever governing body that approved it says that it will be an exhibition match?

Nevertheless, I'm also not excited for this event, all for the business and that those retired MMA fighters can still earn some decent money in this pandemic. But I doubt that either of the 3 will make a come back fight in the Octagon, but then again if the price is right then why not.

Anderson Silva vs Tito Ortiz they are boxers who have had a good career in the UFC championship, they both have expertise in mixed martial arts, Tito Ortiz and Anderson Silva have the best current records in MMA, sports media especially boxing, nowadays almost every page is talking about them.

I will not miss this boxing, although in terms of record, winning and losing both are not much different, what is clear is that this is an event that many boxing fans have been waiting for, honestly this time I will side with the brazil boxers.

Yeah but they slow right due to age and reduce training routine so maybe Tito can catch up now to Silva since this game will gonna be a slow phase. I still bet for Silva if I will gonna have time to watch this fight but this is just a merely exhibition match so we can expect different things happened.

Silva has just beaten Julio Cezar Chavez Jr. and Chavez Jr. is not an easy opponent he is a ranked boxer, and because of this we can consider Silva as a favorite against Ortiz, Ortiz is a good MMA fighter but I don't know about his boxing skills, boxing and MMA are totally different skills, on boxing you must know how to pace yourself because it's a long fight and the impact of the punch is not that hard compared to globes used in MMA.

[Cling18]

This is a good match yet will be a tough fight for Ortiz. As for me, despite having the same age, Silva has an advantage since he has a longer boxing career experience. I've seen how Silva moved in the boxing ring during his previous matches so I guess Ortiz is now preparing hard for this fight.

Not to mention that this is a redemption for Silva I think, he had a lot of rough fight recently so I don't exactly think that this fight will be a guarantee for Silva plus Ortiz is a bruiser so I don't think that we're going to see an easy fight but an entertaining fight nonetheless.

I don't think though that there is a story line in this fight, Silva doesn't need any redemption fight, he is retired but come back last June and then defeated a boxer in JCC. This is a going to be a boxing match so I think Silva will be the favorite because he beat a former MW champion in JCC. Yes, during Ortiz time in the UFC he is a bruiser but this is boxing, you need to always put your hands up to defend yourself. He can't just bulldoze his way and take down Silva.

[aioc]

That's on me, thought the box meant to duke it out in the octagon. Yes you're right that Ortiz can't bulldoze but I think the punches that he will deliver is going to be felt by Silva given that he is a bruiser.

Anderson is so good at ducking and avoiding getting hit, he is good for boxing compared to MMA where you employ wrestling, I consider Silva the favorite on this fight, because of his winning against Chavez JR. but he is fighting Ortiz who also has powerfull punches, Silva should have turned boxer earlier in his fighting career because he is good at it.

[tokeweed]

Lol.  Crazy main and co main events.  Silva obviously is the favorite even without checking the line to make sure as he is one of best strikers in MMA history.

Lines for the matches are available here:  https://www.proboxingodds.com/#

Silva at 1.13.  No value.  Silva via decision should bring that line up but not sure by how much. 

[bittraffic]

Feels like they are turning back the time where Ortiz had been wearing speedo.  Silva 1:13 is  very insulting to Ortiz, is he really that bad already?

I searched the fight of Anderson last Jun,  he still isn't like he used to. It make sense for this to be just an exhibition fights and no kicking this time because given that his leg has cracks, he is very fragile.

[notblox1]

Anderson Silva all day long. He's had a semi decent career in boxing too.

I am not sure about this, looking at his previous fights and general condition I think he is done with fighting and this is last chance for taking some profit.
This is boxing so advantage may be on Silva side, but I think we are going to have some special rules like always from Triller.
Odds are crazy low on Anderson Silva to win, and anyone betting on Ortiz to win can earn almost 6 times money if he wins by some miracle

They want to hype like Tyson and RJJ, but their fight wont generate a lot of ppv and profit. If Im not wrong, then Ortiz has a wrestling background, and spider is more striking guy.

This is only co-main event for main event of the night Oscar De La Hoya vs Vitor Belfort so they don't need to advertise so much.
Most Tito Ortiz wins are by KO or TKO but it's true that his background is wrestling and his last three fights was wins, unlike Silva who lost seven from eight last matches.

If this is an MMA fight Ortiz could have been the heavy favorite but it turns out a boxing match so I go for Silva because of his split decision wins against Chavez JR and his boxing experience although he only had 2 fights enough to prove to the boxing world that he has what it takes to box and beat ranked boxers, I haven't seen Ortiz fought in boxing I have doubt if he can make an easy shift from MMA to boxing.

[FinneysTrueVision]

This seems like an obvious money grab. Both guys are really old and shouldn't be fighting anymore. Silva showed he can still compete against low level washed up fighters like Chavez Jr. but against a real contender he would get hurt badly. Tito has never boxed professionally so I am not sure what to expect from him but he can't possible be that good. If the fight was on basic cable then I might tune in but since it is on PPV I have no intention of buying it.

[Bttzed03]

If Tito Ortiz wins he needs to call out Dana White.

That's a fight I might pay to see.

LOL, yeah I would love to see that match as well.

Before that happens, he needs one solid punch to land on Silva's chin because that will most likely take him out. I think he punches harder than Weidman despite being older. Silva can dance around with his superior footwork while landing those jabs but I don't think he has enough power.

I do agree though, if Ortiz can just land one solid punch on Silva, it might be a different story.

But Silva gets a win against a legitimate middleweight in JCC, but I don't think that he was hit solidly as he moves and tries to avoid a big punch. And Silva doesn't have that power either, if Ortiz chin will hold then it will be a long fight and could go either direction.

Dana vs Ortiz? yeah, why not that will be a good one for exhibition.

Yes, this is the trend now, ex-MMA still trying to make money because of the pandemic. But I don't see any real contender though wanting to fight the likes of Silva. Tito is also a wash up fighter, but if we are going to base on who's active, Silva might have the edge. I'm also not interested on buying this in PPV, just a waste of money. But for those hardcore fans of both fighters, they might go for it.
