    Wilder is a bit like Haye (at HW), prone to prey on the weak and elderly.


    Having said that ... all credit to him if he does fight Ortiz.

    This happens all the time in other sports, because in third-world countries it's easy to falsify birth records. There were several famous football players who got busted for lying about their age. Here's the example of footballer Taribo West from wikipedia:

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taribo_West#Age_controversy

    If you don't want to click on the link, here is the relevant part:

    In 2010, it was reported that West and other Nigerian internationals, such as Jay-Jay Okocha, Nwankwo Kanu and Obafemi Martins, were at least seven years older than they claimed.[42] In April 2013, Žarko Zečević, former general secretary of Partizan, said that West is 12 years older than his claimed age.[43] Shortly afterwards, West denied the accusation.[44]

    I don't think people have to 'look' for reasons to discredit Wilder there is plenty of evidence out there already.

    Ortiz is 48/50...whatever. What will the Joshua detractors say now? Didnt he win because Wlad was 41?? lol

    i suspect this is also why ortiz wont be at his best anymore.Hes still a top 3 fighter though so wilder better not look at age bc he will get knocked out by Mr. 50 year old.

    Once you hit a certain age, they shouldn't even penalize you for doping anymore. If you can get an AARP discount on your HGH, have at it.

    Pretty sure he's older than what Amir heard, too. The new rumor is that they call him King Kong because he's who the original 1933 movie version was based on.

    Yes, it's funny but I've heard this before.
    Luis Ortiz is about the same age as Felix Savon. Maybe a year younger, that's what I've heard. He was kept off the Cuban team in the 1990s by the stiff competition. He made it through when he was in his 30s.
    He was already 40, 41 when he turned pro.

    Wilder must have known Ortiz true age, which is why he is his next opponent!
