    Couple of chinny old has beens looking for a final payday, Whyte may not not be be prime anymore but he unless gets careless or underestimates either Ortiz or Martin he should flatten both.

    They look very easy to counter, their reflexes are gone, their chins are gone, their legs are gone, I'd back Chisora to beat either of these right now.

    Ortiz would give Joshua a run for his money even now, both have similar curriculum vitae's so it would be an even match, though I'd pip Ortiz to win.

    Isn't that the sort of resume you would expect from.a bogie man? His resume lends to the idea nobody wanted to fight him

    He's shot to pieces and can't hold a shot anymore. His ring IQ is still there and at least he turns up to win unlike the Molina's and Browne's of this world so credit to his strength of character at least. He'd get blown away now by anyone near fringe world level and is a nice name in waiting for someone like Joyce, Dubios (etc) CV.

    You need better bait for fishing.

    He's at least 42 years old. He's doing okay for an old man.

    For a brief period in the first Wilder fight he had me off of my sofa going nuts, even the cat was going nuts. To put things into perspective, I've watched quite a lot of sport on this sofa over the last 7 and a half years, watched some brilliant football, rugby and boxing. Only twice have I been off the sofa uncontrollably going nuts, when Ortiz put it on Wilder and looked like he was going to stop him and recently when Wales drew with Belgium and Neco Williams sent one arrowing into the top corner only for it be saved, what a performance from Neco it was that night. I've watched my beloved West Ham do incredible things from this sofa but not been moved enough to get off of the seat and go nuts. Ortiz is responsible for causing one of two moments that have got me uncontrollably excited in my own home from the comfort of my 1950's Danish Leather sofa (it really is a beaut!) and for that I'm grateful to the big man but he is without a doubt completely shot.

    Embarrassing tbh,he only exists to prop up wilder's padded record.take him off and what are you left with.its a pity he spent his whole career getting pimped out by the pbc.

    Ortiz spent a few fights at Matchroom, Hearn didnt put him in with Whyte or Joshua.

    He's a shot fighter now.... clear as day from the Martin fight.

    Now being linked with Hrgovic who will use it as his coming out party if it goes ahead. He'll flatten Ortiz at this stage.
