    What a punch. He bled all those rounds looking for that right hand. It paid off again tonight.

    Like I told you, Ortiz has cement feet and his massive melon is a magnet for right hands. Bum Squad could've got him out of there early if he let the right hand go more freely but he's so ungainly, uncoordinated, inept and devoid of skill and boxing ability and fearful of OAPs with a modicum of skill and power that he was terrified of letting it go. Go watch the ease at which Christina Hammer was able to lite Ortiz with right hands. He literally couldn't miss with it all night.

    Wilder has that brutal power. Ruiz beats him though.

    It's the best division out there imo.

    So much drama, so much hype, so much power.

    I don't care about the skill level, it entertains the **** out of me.

    the man had to go in, and he had to go out... give him his credit.

    Oh how I miss the days of Larry Merchant conducting post fight interviews.

    Wilder's power is tremendous. But he still can't box for ****.

    Ruiz beats him to McDonald's, that's about it.

    Ortiz’ eyes rolled in the back of his head...he was done. The sweat flying off Ortiz looked like his head exploded.

    Don't worry, in five years they'll probably all no longer be in the picture, while Hrgović, Usyk, Ajagba, Dychko and Sirenko will. :thumbsup:

    What part? That was a very hard punch. That was a solid hard punch. Look at the replay. The sweat flew from Ortiz's head. It looked like he got hit with a bat.

    Gotta give Wilder props, he was patient even while being outboxed but he picked his moment perfectly.

    He reached the count of ten...?

    Ortiz's gloves were still on the floor when Bayless waved it off, meaning he was still on the canvas at the end of the fight.
