Personally styles make fights I don’t care how old Ortiz is it’s a horrible style for Ruiz coming in and getting hit with sum real heavy stuff from Ortiz !!!! Uppercuts on the inside !!!! Southpaw also !!! Ortiz tko in 7np problem at all !!!!! Your take on this match up ????? Discuss
Right now Ruiz wins - too fast for old man Ortiz who gets slower by the day. Prime for prime would be interesting match up though. 50:50 that one.
If Ortiz can get the Ruiz, Jr. fight soon....might be best to not do a Wilder fight where Ortiz may get ground down even more.
A 50 yr old who is slow now, on heart meds, needs doc clearance before he can fight, recently KO hard... Seriously wtf?
Ortiz is slow he would get lit up like AJ.. Talk about people making boxers into something they are not..
Ruiz has a good chance bc Ortiz is open for counter right hands and looked WAY vulnerable against Hammer , but I would go with Ortiz right now until he really looks done ,and he wont be struggling against tall guy,he will be landing far easier on Ruiz . Not so sure ruiz is going to look as effective with a long jab in his face and Ortiz has a VERY active jab so ? Im not sold on Ruiz and I don't know what Ortiz performance level is now ? Ortiz is ranked higher for me, could be nail biter but....... Ortiz UD.
Well, Ruiz has the superior resume for sure - win over Joshua, and a nip/tuck result against Parker which I scored for Ruiz by a round at the time. Ruiz has a good chin which will serve him well here, and his activity will be to his credit - depends if Ortiz can counter him hard enough to stymie him, or even hurt him enough to break him down. Decent fight I would like to see one day - Ortiz’s age is the X Factor though.
