Check out some of what he had to say on those subjects below.
Ellerbe on predicting Rolly to knockout Pitbull
“Pitbull’s style, he fights one way. He’s just very aggressive, very aggressive and Rolly and his trainer have been working on ways to counter that kind of stuff, and he’s not just going to continue to run up in there on Rolly.
“I see the fight playing out as an all action fight from the opening bell. Neither guy is going to be sit back and bouncing around and fighting off the back foot. It’s like Rolly will have some things in his arsenal to be able to counter that.”
On fans wanting to see Gervonta Davis in against Devin Haney or Shakur Stevenson
