    Not if it's 5% of the total take...

    You think the total take for Joshua-Ortiz is $100m?

    Yes lets poll a predominantly UK board and ask if they blame the UK fighter for major fights falling through...sounds fool proof.

    I’m shocked there’s still people defending this disgusting old coward who is clearly still roiding and can’t take the fight.

    No...that was a general statement, suggesting the context matters.

    YO! WHERE YOU AT DUBBLECHIN.....? Now that that his other love fantasy, Ortizn't has been shown to be nothing but a yellow bellied duck, he has become conspicuous by his absence.

    Should change your name to DUBBLEPENETRATED after all the **** you posted defending the overrated POS that is Luis 'Baba Yaga' Ortizn't. Don't come on here mentioning that shithouses name again unless he's finally found hiss bollocks, or he's announcing his retirement.

    How many threads can I post in on this subject without one of you idiots making up garbage about me?

    Try commenting on something I actually said this week. I've typed plenty of words. I'm sure you can find something I actually wrote to disagree with.

    Jesus.

    I've said FROM THE FIRST TIME ORTIZ'S NAME CAME UP ... in whatever thread that was about possible opponents ... that Ortiz should take the offer.

    Find ANY post where I said Ortiz should TURN DOWN EDDIE HEARN.

    Weirdo.

    You're defending Ortiz's stance with all your convoluting of 'well AJ should fight Usyk' or 'AJ should fight Whyte II'. It's Joshua's American debut and they want an American or American based fighter you cretin.

    Usyk vs Joshua just gets bigger and bigger AFTER Usyk's heavyweight debut and subsequent fights, that's because he's the unified Cruiserweight champion and potentially a very big player in the Heavyweight division.

    You want Whyte beaten up again so that he doesn't pose a threat to your lover boy Wilder.

    And you hate the idea of Joshua beating the granny out of Ortiz because it again makes your lover boy Wilder, look like the mediocre one trick pony he genuinely is.

    WHY?

    WHY is fighting a GARBAGE US fighter PREFERRED by you BRITISH fans over Joshua fighting a MEGA fight with Usyk in MSG?

    Because US FANS don't prefer it.

    Are you serious? They're trying to increase AJ's profile in the States by beating the crap out of a ranked American fighter. The fact that there are so few of those nowadays isn't Joshua's or Hearns fault and like I said previously, Usyk isn't a 6 week stand in opponent, he's the unified Cruiserweight champion and demands a little more respect and consideration when it comes to any potential title challenge.

    How's that working out?

    How about increasing Joshua and Usyk's status by making a MEGA fight at the Garden?

    No, GGG-Rolls was met with so much enthusiasm, let's just go with Joshua-Hunter.

    Like I said to that other clown, enjoy your Joshua-Hunter 4 a.m. PPV.

    It's clearly the fight you want to see.

    You've been a promoter for how long? What is the name of your promotion company?

    Why you opening your mouth like you know more than Eddie Hearn, Eddie Hearn has built an empire, what have you done???

    He puts on shows every month? What are you doing? Watching one-punch man on Netflix?

    Hearn knows what he is doing, he has been doing in succesfully for years.


    I watch one-punch man on Netflix, but I ain't the one telling Eddie how to do his job...

    There is no way Ortiz himself to turn down 5mil. His team probably lied to him or promised him some big fights with a lot of money involved but then again ...he will never get 5mil from other fight.

    Somebody is lying either Haymon or Hearn but Ortiz is not a coward and needs the money, thats for sure. Hearn never wanted that fight for AJ from the start as well, back then when Ortiz was mandatory and signed with PBC then he got Wilder shot instead for only 500k.

    I can't wait to see Joshua vs Usyk but, I can wait until Usyk has become fully acclimatised at the weight, has increased his profile further by beating up a few fringe/ top 10 contenders which could then turn it into potentially one of the biggest fights in recent boxing history.

    And guess what? That's what Joshua, Usyk and Hearn will want to happen aswell prior to them meeting up.

    Arguably the best Cruiserweight ever, Evander Holyfield didn't go looking to fight a Lennox Lewis or Mike Tyson or Riddick Bowe'esque type fighter in his Heavyweight debut and neither will or SHOULD Usyk.
