Wilder v Ortiz UK TV

Kinda obvious, Sky and Eddie have a much better relationship with Showtime than Frank and BT do currently.

 

Showtime dont have any influence on international tv deals.It's IMG a Agency which handles these live rights.Showtime or HBO has no influence they are just the US Broadcaster.I've seen a couple of these posts,setting the record straight

 

Awesome, it's a really good card

 

Think I'll be setting my alarm for this one. Can't wait.

Just got everything crossed it goes ahead.

 

Was always going to be on Sky with implications for their main man and of course Whyte a possible mandatory.

 

Good card, I can’t do the all nighters anymore, last one was calzaghe vs Jones jr and it messed my sleep up for a week! I’ll set the video though

 

Anyone think Wilder has absolutely no chance here and will get blitzed? Or is it just me?

I think this could be an absolute demolition job from Ortiz. The difference in skill and technical ability is so vast and remember Ortiz puts people to sleep.

Thinking of putting some serious dough on Ortiz by KO, not sure what the bookies are seeing here, he will walk through Wilder.

 

Wilder has a chance for sure. I'm not sure if Ortiz can sustain a decent pace for 12 rounds and I don't really know how well he takes shots to be honest. He has certainly slowed down too. I'm still backing him by KO though. I think it'll be a KO similar to his last one; a very subtle bit of footwork with Wilder walking onto a left hand.

Of course if Wilder does win I'll be giving him plenty of credit

 

Yeah for me if Wilder wins this clean with no controversy it will be the first time I take him seriously. Maybe I'm being too harsh but i can't take his windmilling seriously right now I think he's a complete joke in the ring. If you're getting comprehensively outboxed by Spzilka who is nothing more than a football hooligan really, then you're getting blitzed by Ortiz IMO. We'll see.

 

Yeah, I agree. His athleticism is good and is ultimately (along with his power) what has gotten him this far. His balance is shocking though and he leaves plenty of holes when throwing, which I'm assuming Ortiz will exploit easily enough

 

It's gonna be a great night with old man Ortiz showing what senior citizens can still achieve in later life.

He going to be too crafty and slick. Hybrid won't know what's hit him.

Granpa ko win by 8th.

 

I got Ortiz by KO and I think it could be early, maybe inside 4 rounds. I don't see how Wilders windmills can stand up to a superior southpaw boxer like Ortiz who can also bang.

 

I believe we are going to see controversy.
