    Foreman was too slow and easy to hit at 40.

    I’d also enjoy watching the posters here do backflips coming up with excuses if Ortiz won.

    Pick ‘em. Povetkin seems to have better workrate of 2 old men, Ortiz is better from the range. Whoever dictates the range wins.

    Foreman came back and at at 43 and fought another ATG in a Prime Holyfield went 12 rounds with this absolute Legend Holyfield himself said it was one of the hardest fights he had ever had...at 45 He won a World Title against Moorer love or Hate him he did defeat a Prime Holyfield to take the World title off Him.....the over rating of the Heavyweights at the moment is staggering two 40 Year old Journeyman in Povetkin and Ortiz who are making up the numbers really to mention them in the same breath as a George Foreman with what Big George achieved or even what he achieved at 40 plus is even more staggering.!!!

    Moorer had a glas jaw and beat an out ogf sorts Holy in a dull fight then was stopped in the rematch, Holy didn`t fight that well v Foreman or Holmes and George was very easy to hit in that bout.

    No, Ortiz has poor stamina and punch resistance. Ruiz would KO him late.

    Ortiz can’t take a punch? The only person that’s hurt him is the hardest puncher in the entire sport. lol

    Doesn’t say much tbh. Povetkin’s punch resistance is equally bad these days. Hunter almost had him put away in the first round.

    But then survived survived another 11 rounds and got a draw? Can’t be that bad then.

    Povetkin.

    Ortiz is technically very good but he's shot to **** and has no punch resistance whatsoever.

    He's not even top 10, he's the most overrated bum of the lot.

    Honestly no trolling

    I believe Ortiz would beat everyone on Aj's resume other than Wlad and maybe Parker

    I think he has the great amateur style and he is as crafty as an old fox

    Sh1t over Wilder all you guys want, but Ortiz can box
