    We saw King Kong put Wilder in trouble, how would AJ do against him? Team AJ have avoided him in the past...

    Team AJ might fancy this one now wilder has softened Ortiz up twice and he’s well into his forties.

    “shot to pieces old name” certainly fits the matchroom checklist to feed to their house heavies

    I still pick Ortiz because big josh at this point is mentally shot and has a glass jaw, and zero backfoot game.

    Ortiz ko

    Grandpa Ortiz could be a menace for Bodybuilder before he faced Wilder the 2nd time...not now...too old, too worn out.

    Bodybuilder KO Ortiz like did with Pulev

    Never forget: Ortiz turned down 7 million to fight Joshua to instead fight Wilder for 1.5 million.

    Ortiz was offered the fight prior to Ruiz accepting when the fat drug cheat Miller was banned.

    But Ortiz ran away. Well ambled away given his age.

    Ortiz is no better than Pulev. I think Joshua would handle him fairly easily.

    If Kong beat Ruiz more convincingly than AJ did in Saudi then we`ll have our answer.

    Yep this, plus when he was AJ's mandatory instead of going to the courts to force a mandatory like he said he would do he instead gave up his mandatory spot to fight Wilder for 500K at the time when AJ's mandatories were making millions. Ortiz ducked AJ twice and he did so because he knew AJ would destroy him.

    Even if that's how boxing worked, wouldn't Ortiz's last fight where he went life and death with Martin, who AJ KO'ed with ease without even trying already give you the answer?

    Ortiz was no doubt a solid top 10 heavyweight in his prime but he is far too overrated on this forum. Aj doesn't lose to any version or Ortiz.

    Ortiz is shot to pieces, he gets destroyed now

    But a few years ago it would have been a very interesting fight.

    Get lost. It's well documented that the so call King Kong(overrated bum) openly admit he ducked AJ and career high payday.
