Analysis: He may be a bit immature…but wow is this guy a fighter!  He looked completely done during the stretch run of the Robert B. Lewis as Firing Line passed him, but Dortmund came firing back on the inside and was able to re-rally and pass Firing Line to win a close one once again.  He’s going to have to continue to develop, but the talent is clearly there for him to compete with anyone.
