What's your Opetaia-Briedis 2 thoughts? 🤔👇

[@Vidsofthe_Day]

Jai by stoppage 👍

[@tuhuster]

Jai TKO

[@skyliner967]

Jai all day!!!

[@hardcode9452]

Briedis by KO

[@skyliner967]

@@hardcode9452 briedis couldn’t get the job done when Jai had his jaw broken in 2 places. Jai fought 10 rounds with that broken Jaw and still outboxed Marius and since then Jai has only improved. I have mad respect for Briedis, but Jai is the new era. Wouldn’t surprise me if he stops Briedis early this time round.

[@ElsviewStudio]

This guys a savage you can see it in his eyes he's hungry and he means business looking forward to seeing him in the ring more!

[@cornell833]

So true he will win by stoppage Saturday watch 🤞💪🥊or could be a close decesion win #Nebraska

[@ElsviewStudio]

@@cornell833 I agree mate think anyone in the division is liable to get slept by this guy 👊🏾

[@salvitoripopadillo4539]

Absolutely! I just mentioned his eyes in my comment. Lazer Focused!!!

[@ElsviewStudio]

@@salvitoripopadillo4539 can’t agree more there’s a look in them eyes that means business 🔥🔥🔥

[@user-iz1iz3qm9i]

💯

[@DarkHitman82G]

He's a Bad Man 👊

[@glennhutchinson-iz8sq]

This man doesn’t get spoken about enough in boxing media he’s definitely one of the best boxers in the world but hear Jack shit about him

[@sootysweep6134]

This fella is elite and a bloody monster.

[@francishughes2016]

Jeez, Jai Opetaia is an animal, he brings a different intensity that anyone else in the division, i think that he is going to clean up the division, & take all of the belts, i dont think that anyone else is going to beat him.

[@ohcaptainmycaptain3019]

Proud of this guy!! C’mon Australia!! 🇦🇺

[@jimmyjimmy7513]

The eyes won't lie

[@clearwater3432]

Let's go Uso!!!🇼🇸🇦🇺

[@dancostelloe4448]

Jai Going to the Top with Eddie Hearn. Lets get a world tour going. Guy is legit

[@taeaofoutuilaepa4852]

All the best Uso Jai 🫡 🙏 🇼🇸 Godbless!!

[@cavieman136]

Jai Opetaia is arguably the most focused fighter on the planet today. Briedis is a serious serious man also and can bang big time. Looking forward to this fight, and suspect Jai will improve upon his last performance with Briedis and pull off the win. But a tough night at the office for sure!

[@luckyluciano6939]

This guy is a bad man

[@nickconstable8364]

Love your work Jai You represent your people so well

[@timc3773]

He speaks very respectfully...a breath of fresh air.

[@dezerteagle6412]

Jai’s going to KO Briedis this time. Different animal now. Let’s go lad! 🇦🇺 your era starts now for the world to see on the big stage. Gonna catch all them eyes bruv let’s go 💪

[@cornell833]

💯 can't wait let's gooooo

[@jimmyjimmy7513]

This guy looks serious 😂😂😂. Imagine fighting him, he is scary

[@salvitoripopadillo4539]

When the eyes 👀 are Sharp and intense but the rest of the body is cool and relaxed, you KNOW he's fit and ready at Any moment! "Two Men Enter... Opetaia Leave!" (Reference to Mad Max beyond Thunder Dome)

[@Keith-vo2ck]

LETS GO OPETAIA

[@clearwater3432]

Yep, No translation needed!

[@uce1090]

Let’s go Uce 😤💣💥✊🏽

[@rickisunak]

Nobody headbutting this fella, he'd probably knock out everyone on the card in one night.

[@andresmolina5474]

Briedis can look this man to the eyes without hesitation.

[@user-sd8bz2zr5j]

?? the top two heavyweights , two all time greats are on that card lol

[@zs8796]

Only guys he wouldn't probably beat on that card are Fury and Usyk, then again this guy is dangerous, he could beat them both. Usyk did get dropped by Dubois lol.

[@bantakingbantaking4298]

The Japanese monster onou and this is guy the most exciting fighters at the moment

[@aum82]

💯💯💯

[@tuhuster]

This is some talent. Let’s go uso. This uso has Floyd Mayweather work ethic 🇼🇸🇦🇸🇦🇺

[@LimerickR266]

Solid fight on the undercard this. The winner should definitely be fighting the winner of Billam-Smith vs Riakporhe 2 in a unification fight afterwards.

[@luke_wood99]

The near black eyes tell you all you need to know about this guy… if its anything like the first fight this should be a gooden 💪

[@edhenry79]

I can’t wait to watch this fight

[@lebanonjames1807]

“The eyes never lie Chico”

[@braydendoyle5511]

Let’s go jai you got this

[@Eezzy108]

Majority of Aussie boxers are hype jobs , Tszyu, kambosos are hype jobs But this guy is the real deal

[@tuhuster]

Special talent

[@johnb2157]

Kambosos, yes. Tszyu, no.

[@lebanonjames1807]

Tszyu is in no way a hype job lol

[@tuhuster]

@@lebanonjames1807 definitely not.

[@glennhutchinson-iz8sq]

Kambosos yes Tszyu is no hype job I don’t know what Tim has do do to change people’s minds the blokes an animal like Jai

[@davidhoughton1993]

Great boxer

[@KenOath-ic6eg]

Let’s go USO 💪🏽

[@barneymaurirere9592]

JAI OPETIAIA IN THE DICTIONARY MEANS NO CHIT HERE BEWARE . BEST PURE FIGHTER. MY FAVORITE BOXER PERIOD .

[@hashimjaved9262]

These Uso's are dangerous people. I wanna see Jai fight winner of Bivol & Bertieve

[@Triple_A-679]

Lol, they are in different weight class😅

[@tuhuster]

They would not dare to come up. This uso is the meaning of talent meets hard work. Special talent

[@Triple_A-679]

@@tuhuster There is no point in Jai fighting smaller fighters, 175 is already a stacked division especially now when David Morel and Benavidez have joined the party, there is so much exciting atmosphere there for them to be busy in the coming years, Jai have a chance to claim greatness by becoming undisputed at 200 and maybe jump up to heavyweight like the few who have done before.

[@tuhuster]

@@Triple_A-679 Jai will go up to the HW. Jai mentioned that he can make 175 for a fight with Bivol or Biev. But I doubt it that’s a lot of weight to cut.

[@808shortts]

@@tuhusterJai recently said the only way that a Bivol/Beterbiev fight happens is at 185 catchweight.

[@ninjamoves3642]

Bro dialled in ☠️

[@royprasad975]

Reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeal badman.. let's go uce!!!

[@eddietoo8697]

😂😂😂😂Your comment took me out reeeeeal badman😂

[@Yongs17]

If you watch jais earlier interviews, he mentioned that he hates doing interviews and only wants to turn up and fight.

[@adamlees8410]

This is a stone cold killer. Those eyes are scary and this mans intensity is second to none. I think CBS would get destroyed if he fights Opetaia and would advise him to swerve that fight bigtime.

[@Tennyhu]

🔥🔥🔥🔥
