    His countering got him knocked out... Twice

    So what would it do against AJ?


    And ive told you before, im hardly an AJ fanboy
    Check my history

    I do try and stay balanced however

    Ortiz is world class at nothing tbh

    Do behave

    He lost his pen when Hearn needed a replacement for Miller

    Even Joyce called him out and he ignored it

    100% agree. We never see him so he's definitely a mythical legend.

    Agreed! If people hype Povtkin, you can support Ortiz the same way. In fact, I would love to see Pov and Ortiz fight.

    Boogeyman in the sense if you blow your nose Luis Ortiz will come out, then you flush him down the toilet?

    No 41 year old is a boogeyman.

    Povetkin has actually beat some good fighters, Ortiz hasn't.

    And no one is calling 41-year old Povetkin a bogey man either. He'd do really well to beat Whyte a second time.

    AJ has 6-7 wins around or above Ortiz's level and 1 loss. That seems like a fair or slightly generous assessment of Ortiz's chances, around a 10-15% chance of an upset.

    Grandpa Ortiz isn't 41, he's more like 51

    Ortiz is a myth, His best win is Bryant Jennings, sure it was a good KO, other than that what has he done?

    Outboxed Wilder for a few rounds? Others have outboxed Wilder or at least given him problems for rounds.



    Ortiz has made his name from ONE KO in 2015 and getting knocked out twice. He is an old man with an apparent heart condition.

    Ducked AJ, didn't want the fight, was offered a career high payday and went missing, he isn't what people say he is or want him to be.

    When Ortiz has a meaningful win, let me know. Right now, he's living on giving DW one tough fight....

    Perhaps, not at the moment, but Pov is(was) highly hyped. If it's good for Pov, it's good for Ortiz. That's all I'm saying.

    This guy’s rep is ridiculous. Some people actually have him above Povetkin!
