Luis Ortiz vs Travis Kauffman on Fury Wilder undercard

Thing is that spectacular under card thats currently filled with TBA's are going to be filled with underwhelming picks just like that one.

 

Lol so funny how they created this monster who in reality was given showcase fights in Europe and blew it big time.
Wlad was a long time champ,still imo younger than Ortiz and was ranked no two and contributed to one of the greatest modern nights of boxing all of the journalists had been part of.
No secret Ortiz was advised not to fight due to his high blood pressure.

 

Kaufmann is a solid journeyman with a good record. Let the guy make some money and take a shot against an old man.

 

Well now, the FOH Heayvyweight Champion of the world couldn't do it.

 

You're forgotten now.

 

If you can put your bias to one side, and let's just talk about what we've witnessed. As far as I can see, Joshua does take on challenges, and fights his mandatories. The reality is that the Ortiz fight would have got called. So that begs the question; why did Ortiz not just wait for the mandatory to be called with Joshua?

With regards to Wlad, I took issue with you saying that Wlad sidestepped Ortiz. Yes, you said you understood why, but that it was a sidestep. We both know that the reality was that Ortiz was simply never part of the equation.

 

You are entitled to your opinion as well as I am entitled to mine. Joshua could have fought Wilder and he also could have fought Ortiz. The ball was in his court. He chose other options. Wlad sidestepped Ortiz no matter how it's framed.

I was really hoping that Joyce was fighting Washington. Joe Hanks might as well be Tom Hanks, he has no defence, against Joyce that's gonna be punished brutally.

 

They had Joe Hanks lined up for Ortiz a little while ago so I'm guessing he's an in house guy available at low cost on short notice? Presumably he's there to be brutally knocked out and thus introduce Joe Joyce to the US market?

No idea how accurate this tweet is, obviously if true underwhelming is an understatement... I don't want to be up at 3am watching Hurd turning Welbourn into pulp with the main event still hours away. In fact I don't want to watch any of them.

I'm hoping that there will be some good news held back. They leak this, people moan, then when the real card emerges it's at least better than feared.

 

That's a bit of a letdown if Joyce is facing Hanks. I'd rather he faced Arreola and that's saying something.

 

Out of the Hurd, Ortiz and Joyce fight, I'm really not sure what the biggest mismatch is. Leaning toward the Joyce one

 

All big names, all in complete mismatches.
My god i hope this PPV flops big time. **** PBC for putting this trash on PPV.

I originally wanted to say that Welborn is a good comeback for Hurd, but FOR ****S SAKE! The dude lost to some journeyman with 100 LOSSES! Gtfo of here with that BS.
Ortiz already had his tuneup, but i guess this is a bit of a step up. Still a huge mismatch.
Joyce is just staying busy and looking for a highlight reel KO.

How is that PPV worthy?
