    Takam is durable, but the natural pick here is an Ortiz knockout, Late!

    Ortiz stops him with a brutal left uppercut after 8 rounds of war

    Looks like Ortiz is out of the picture now, WBC purse bids for Duhaupas and Takam for Duhaupas' silver WBC title confirmed. Makes more sense for Takam to go for a silver belt as it's a stepping stone to getting a shot at the proper WBC title.

    Ortiz once again the guy with nothing to offer to is passed up for a better opportunity. Whoever handles Ortiz now has got a tough job on their hands in finding him meaningful fights.

    He should perhaps exit Shannon Briggs from the HW picture once an for all.

    Takam is overrated but Duhaupas, Molina, Szpilka and a shot Arreola are world beaters according to Wilder fans LOL.

    Good fight btw. Ortiz KO mid rounds but Takam is a live dog... He might be able to take it if he's able to withstand Ortiz's early onslaught.

    So Ortiz has signed with matchroom.

    Hearn officially confirmed it on Twitter.

    Brilliant move for Ortiz and matchroom.
    Was little for him in the States. Hopefully he gets the exposure he deserves now, some big fights in the pipeline for him no doubt.

    Duhauapas' manager is saying they will fight Takam on the same day and not Ortiz.
    They need to sort this card out!

    Eddie Hearn and his Matchroom Sport company just got a little richer with the signing of unbeaten WBC heavyweight champion Luis “King Kong” Ortiz (25-0, 2 KOs) on Saturday. The former Cuban amateur had previously been signed with Golden Boy Promotions in the United States.

    With the addition of Ortiz to his stable, Hearn now has three top heavyweights in IBF champion Anthony Joshua, Ortiz and Dillian Whyte. You would hope that Hearn will match Ortiz against Joshua before the Cuban fighter gets much older.

    The southpaw Ortiz is nearing 40, but he’s still in his prime though. There are a lot of boxing fans who believe that Ortiz would destroy the 26-year-old Joshua if the two of them were to face each other right now, which is probably why Hearn isn’t going to let Ortiz anywhere near his golden goose. Joshua is a pay-per-view fighter on Sky Box Office.

    If Hearn were to put Joshua in with Ortiz, he might get shipwrecked.

    “Luis Ortiz is one of the most exciting heavyweights in the world and I am delighted to be working with him,” said Hearn to skysports.com. “We plan to keep him very busy and let the fans enjoy his devastating power. Luis is an avoided fighter but we plan on giving him the profile that will make that impossible.”

    Ortiz is scheduled to fight on November 12 in Monaco against Carlos Takam. However, it’s unclear whether that particular fight will be taking place.

    There’s news that Takam will be fighting Johann Duhaupas instead of Ortiz. Hearn says that Ortiz will be fighting in November, but it’s unclear who that’ll be against.
