    There's too many people in the sport commenting on Ortiz's age for it to be untrue.

    As for the splits that looks like 80:20 to Wilder?

    Wilder can't complain if Joshua wants the same then.

    And with good reason: he's finally fighting a live opponent and a legitimate threat to him.

    I thought he looked very quiet yesterday.


    Heart says Ortiz, but head says Wilder.

    Ortiz is slow and old and only has a punchers chance in this one. Wilder should take care of business and knock him out.

    There's so much speculation surrounding Luis Ortiz's age that it's basically developed into a running joke on here. :biggrin:

    Yeah honestly I'm kind of getting pumped for this main event. We could see Wilder tested like never before in his career. We've never really seen Wilder in this kind of a situation before. I'm not saying Wilder can't handle the moment, but I think one thing is clear : we will learn a lot about Wilder tonight.

    So if Ortiz wins, will he legit surpass B-Hop as the oldest man to win a World title? :rolleyes:

    I think his age will become apparent to all the doubters very early in this fight. Wilder is going to make him look very old and slow.

    At the conclusion, with Dirrell writhing on the ground from a body shot in an attempt to get Uzcategui disqualified again.

    Then both corners -- and Leon Lawson -- will pile in.

    And then it will well and truly kick off. :lol:

    Fight Purses.
    Deontay Wilder $2.1 million, Luis Ortiz $500,000.

    Glad Ortiz is getting a good payday and a titleshot, since its long overdue
