    Hrgovic will put the old codger in permanent retirement. Quicker than Wilder!

    Jeez at this stage I'd basically call that euthanasia albeit a painful version. Horgvic's right hand takes Ortiz's head off. I don't think Ortiz in his prime beats Hrgovic let alone this ancient version.

    If Hrgo was going to get a chance through the IBF, wouldn't he have fought tonight?

    He's frozen out I guess.

    Hrgovic will probably fight Parker. I'm sure Hrgovic is on Hearn's side, so a fight with Ortiz is unlikely given he's with Haymon.

    That fight makes no sense for Ortiz, it would be a step back for him. I'd say he gets a shot at a big money fight with someone. Maybe a belt that Fury decides to vacate

    But who would offer him a big money fight? He brings nothing to the table himself, he isn't a draw and everyone now sees him as ready to be taken so a win over him means a lot less than it did. Why would anyone who is a draw bother fighting him?

    Even if Fury vacates Joyce and Ruiz Jr are the top ranked guys, I don't see him getting a vacant title shot for the WBC. His best chance of a title shot is with the IBF as he's ranked highest with them having won this eliminator which means Hrgovic in a final eliminator.

    If he fights on I suspect we'll see a return to fighting journeymen for easy paydays.

    Being ready to be taken virtually assures he'll get a shot in today's heavyweight division of duckers
