So after all this talk for weeks about Wilder wanting Joshua......He's fighting Ortiz. Wilder was so desperate for Joshua right?
Even against Ortiz Wilder won’t get as much as the offered easy work fight against Whyte will he? Personally I don’t see him fighting Ortiz,he’s gonna fight Breazeale instead of biggest payday and guaranteed AJ fight for facing Whyte in the UK,that fight would give him exposure to the UK,probably a nailed on win just on account of size alone and money wise so much more than he’s ever been offered.
I tell you what I will say..... Why on earth aren't you fighting Whyte? Way more money and you'll be one step closer towards Joshua. Looks like another American boxer who's afraid to leave homesoil..... And for once, due to Joshua's draw in Europe, the American will have to at some point.
They can't make any real excuses until the fight is over too see what Ortiz shows up. People are saying he looked slow yesterday but I saw a very patient and what appears to be leaner Ortiz.... Fighters like Ortiz are going to step it up if a title is on the line. There should be no excuses other than throwing the excuse back on those not crediting Joshua's win over Klitchko using the age card.
