    Rumours circulating that Ortiz is weighing his career lightest in over 5 years.. If true this should be a much more interesting fight. Can Ortiz pull it off?

    Looks good indeed. Its going to be interesting. Wilder is slight favourite but anything is possible.

    Nah, I expect a Wilder win but Ortiz is certainly in shape, if Wilder has taken his eyes off the prize or is overlooking Ortiz then anything can happen.

    Even Stiverne looked fast on the pads in the build up to their rematch, question is, is Ortiz fast enough to react in real time during the fight, he's not a fast heavyweight and up against a taller, rangier, faster opponent.

    Considering he's the last living person to have sparred with Harry Greb, I think he's in phenomenal shape.

    Ortiz sparred with Jack Dempsey, even Jack Johnson and Rocky Marciano.................well, he has a little age on him, but the nursing home has allowed him to fight! Ortiz looks like he can win the fight, but always remember, Wilder has HAYMON BOXING INSURANCE! I hope Ortiz knocks Wilder out................would be good for boxing, but there is a reason Haymon allowed this fight to happen, this fight is fishy..............
