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. Hopefully we’ll see him take another step forward this Saturday!
