    Unless it's a big fight there's never any drug testing in Wilder's fights to begin with, so he can juice to his heart's content.

    Wilder's likely trying to juice up to levels commensurate with his condition in the Szpilka fight, so he can just steamroll Ortiz with the quickness.

    Ortiz is a young kid , he will be only 50yo in 2020 , so there’s no rush .

    Instead of pushing back the fight no one wants why not just scrap it and make the Fury fight, or another meaningful fight.

    Wilder - Ortiz 2 has to marinate a little longer!

    Will Ortiz be allowed to bring his cane into the ring?

    Ortiz's carer had a vacation booked for Sept, had to reschedule.

    Does Ortiz need heart surgery? Or does Wilder need more time to get the Dianobal out of his system?

    How can a fight that’s never been announced be postponed?

    It will take place in November because Las Vegas wants it and that’s when there are best available dates.

    Will be quite a while before they wake up old grandpa Ortiz from the pension home. I heard he's sedated this time of the year.

    The 1880's have a lot of footage missing. Rumour has it Ortiz was a force in those days, even if he was getting on in years a bit. I guess we'll never know now.

    Why is a fight that no one wanted to see a rematch for being postponed? Just scrap the fight and both should move on to other opponents. Boxing is such a circus sometimes.
