Any merit to all of this being an elaborate sham?

    You honestly think that Mayweather vs Mosley was staged?

    Actually, Ortiz winning isn't a bad thing from a promoter's side. Wilder's years of positioning aren't wasted because a win over the hyped Wilder translates into big cred for Ortiz. He speaks Spanish, which isn't as much of a set back as only speaking Bulgarian. And ... he can be marketed as a legit threat to AJ, and if AJ gasses or fails to live up to expectation against Parker ... Ortiz could be the one cashing in on a re-match or even gunning for another big payday against Fury/Povetkin.

    Seems plausible. Doesn't mean it's actually the case but it wouldn't surprise me.

    Wilder won by stoppage.. damn... looks like the conspiracy theorists were right. Was obviously staged.
