5 time in the last two fight. Yes the Wilder is overrated especially considering that Ortiz most notable wins were against average guys such as Martin and Jennings.
1. Ortiz is 43 years old (probably even older) 2. Ortiz got KTFO twice against Wilder, his punch resistance suffered from that 3. Ortiz won 8-9 rounds against Ruiz, I thought that was impressive given the circumstances. Ortiz was already old when he fought Wilder, but clearly he is a skilled operator and a dangerous southpaw, so imo a very good win for Wilder.
Whose he beat to be a top 10 heavy who did he ever beat his resume is no better than someone like DDD or Joyce yet people go on like Ortiz some great operator old or not Ruiz would of beat him regardless
Wilder knocked him out 4 1/2 years ago & people complaints Wilder knocked out old man then Ruiz could not knock him out so no it does not make anyone look bad except perhaps AJ who WAS stopped by Ruiz
How does make AJ look bad. RUiz probably the 5th best opponent AJ has beaten and Ortiz only noteworthy opponent Wilder has beaten and Ruiz beat him.
Ruiz then was easily out boxed by AJ in rematch and then beat Wilder's most noteworthy opponent he had beaten, dropping Ortiz 3 times.
Ortiz is 43 years old & did better on 1st attempt with Ruiz than 28 years AJ did. this is just the truth. it's no big thing just an observation
