    Or will Chris Arreola receive a last minute call for the rematch?

    This is just around the time the Sasha fight got cancelled. I'm cautiously optimistic though. 75% chance of going forward now?

    Damn that's scary. So Ortiz gets busted the second time in a row and then Wilder beats one of the worst hw belt holders of all time for the second time in a row.

    Behave. Bermane is still inexplicably in the top 15. Thus we have a much better chance of gettig to see the worst heavyweight trilogy of all time.

    Wilder vs Stiverne, the trilogy nobody asked for and even less people wanted to see.

    Stiverne is still in the WBC's top 15 so I guess not.

    Lots of **** talk on Wilder like he pissed dirty for Ortiz. You kids are really that stupid. I mean let’s just blame Wilder every time

    This fight won't be over until Ortiz passes a drug test after the final bell rings. It would not surprise me if Wilder takes a money match, knowing that if he looses, the PED busted Ortiz loss will be declared a no contest. I wonder who has the A and B samples under safe watch.

    We'll see what Ortiz weights fro this fight. If he's in shape and motivated, I'll pick him to win via stoppage.

    But I suspect there is some funny business here, and Ortiz won't look very good.

    can happen.

    I don't care if it is no contest as long as the initial result is an Ortiz win
