Ortiz has a heat attack stepping into the ring falls over and accidentally bumps into Charles Martin and knocks him out.
Not a fight thatbI find interesting bit I am going against the grain and have Martin winning via UD. Ortiz is just painfully slow
Martin has shown some durability and resilience in his comeback. Really liked his ko of Washington. I pick martin here
I want to see this, but no way is a Charles Martin vs Luis Ortiz main event worth a ppv, not in 2022 not ever.
Ortiz round 3 or 4 stoppage. Ortiz is an fossil but Charles Martin is abysmal. One of the worst heavyweight champions i have ever seen. Ortiz is levels above him. Not even a comparison
Two guys who have had their time in the limelight with little chance at any more success on the world stage is being offered as a PPV. gross.
I have to pick Charles Martin here. God only knows how old Ortiz is, but we could see from the Wilder fight that he wasn’t even capable of doing 5 rounds without gassing out.
Martin wins and Wilder's gossamer thin resume is snapped. Martin is marginally better than given credit for. He has that Michal Moorer thing where he zones out and forgets that he is in a fight for a couple of rounds. When he is focused, he's a big, hard-hitting southpaw. Ortiz is more skilled, but there is no way he is 42. I would have trouble believing 50. And he has severe blood pressure problems. Youth will be served, Martin will get a last chance, and Ortiz will be headed towards retirement.
Ortiz from the Wilder rematch schools and knocks out Martin rather easily. But you never know with fighters in their 40s, he might just struggle to climb to the ring similar to Povetkin in Whyte rematch.
Ortiz by KO. Martin is trash, he couldn't even beat Kownacki and his best win is still Glazkov injuring himself. Ortiz's resume is thin but compared to Martin's it's hall of fame worthy. But Ortiz will be 42 almost 43 and if he's shot anything could happen. Wouldn't be ironic if Ortiz injured himself and Martin again earned a title shot via injury. Can't believe they are giving Martin another IBF eliminator after ducking Hrgovic. This will be his 2nd eliminator after beating Washington and he's the top ranked IBF heavyweight if he somehow wins this it might actually see him as mandatory instead of Hrgovic which would be a travesty, ducked the next top ranked IBF heavyweight in a mandated eliminator then gifted another eliminator against a 42 year old ranked 10th by the IBF to get a title shot.
