    Whyte has already put in the work for a title shot.

    Dill boy? That’s kind of clever. I like it.

    I vote Ortiz as the winner. But I do have to worry he’ll have lost some ambition and hunger.

    Ortiz just got his shot so he needs to go to the back of the line..

    Whyte is no 1 atm is he not so I'd imagine he is getting next crack at Wilder..

    Whyte is number 1 with the WBC, he is already in contention.

    Ortiz offers nothing for Whyte right now, Whyte just has to keep ticking over and be patient and he will get his shot at Wilder.

    Ortiz should get some big fights. I want to see him vs prospects. Joyce and Dubois or Hrgovic especially. Anybody who is a live dog and after a big scalp.

    I don't think that Wilder has a problem with fighting Whyte. It's Hearn dictating who he fights is what he has a problem with. Everybody know Hearn is trying to act like he is the premier fight promoter. He trying to up his status at Wilders expense while not giving Wilder the fight that he wants and Wilder is aware of that BS and he ain't biting. I think that Wilder should keep his show over here and them B class brits do their thing over there and when Hearn's heart gets bigger than a mustard seed, he can bring his boy on over here where the real big money resides and kings and queens bow down to gangsters.

    Ortiz is no bum.

    He can slow the fight down to his own pace and take full control.

    Whyte has paid his dues, get him a big fight.
    If Wilder doesn't get an unification fight next, then Whyte should be the next option.

    Whyte is Wilder's mandatory and Wilder will not fight him for any amount of money. Wilder has already refused to fight Whyte for $4,000,000!

    I think this would be a good preparation fight for Dillian against a B level boxer. If Dillian outbox’s Ortiz, which Wilder failed to do and stops Ortiz much quicker it would definitely force the fight. I’m up for that.

    I'm cool with that.

    I said on the Brit forum just now, Whyte winning was the worst thing that could happen because that's going to be made a stumbling block for AJ-Wilder by Hearn. And there's a load of clueless British fans on Twitter replying to Wilder's posts saying he needs to fight Whyte. He's just beaten someone much better than Whyte.

    Wilder-Whyte in itself is fine, I've no problem with that but in the context of the current situation, we don't need it

    Whyte should fight Wilder or at worst Breazeale as a final eliminator (only if Wilder takes the AJ fight) for a mandatory WBC shot.

    That is the fair order of play.

    Luis Ortiz is out of the picture and needs to rebuild or retire.
