Ortiz defo being overlooked in this fight. Hes still a very good fighter albeit one that struggles against wilders style. He was outboxing wilder tho and almost had him out of there. If wilder trys to rush in on ortiz too early for an early knockout he,ll pay for it. Ortiz too skilled to get bashed out like breazeale or stiverne.
Yeah I'm still not sure where this 'improved Wilder' talk is coming from. Since he fought Ortiz he struggled with Fury and landed big on Brezeale.
I don't like Wilder and I'm not too fussed about Ortiz. Wilder has made enough money to look after his daughter so I only ever want to see him lose now, to this day. Ortiz, for all the wrongdoings, is a humble family man who lives a very ordinary life. I would love for him to win, I'd like it to be brutal and nasty, whatever it takes, seeing Wilder beaten and beaten badly would be a beautiful thing Whatever happens, almost certainly a Wilder KO win, the division is dogs**t.
Fury says many things. He said he'd be fighting over here in December. We have to look at what's in front of us and what that is, is Wilder / Ortiz next week, which is late November. That means there will be no February fight.
I was thinking Wilder might blow him out early like Brezeale, but Ortiz still poses a threat as Wilder well knows. So Wilder in about 6 rounds this time.
I like watching Wilder. He's obviously crude but he's a hell of an athlete and you know he's trying to ice the opponent with every punch he throws. It's exciting! I'll definitely be setting the alarm for this one.
He is a fine heavy, but almost 2 years on from the last one, it does not bode well. He's not fought a 12 rounder since. It's not quite cherry picking by Wilder as Ortiz is still almost viable, but it's a comfortable pick.
To be fair, he hasn’t been able to sort a fight in December due to the cut, but I agree, he blows a lot of hot air.
Both of those may be true but that's not what I was saying. Where is the improved Wilder people talk about? How can people say that based on those 2 fights?
