    He's got two potential opponents he may face in the future

    1 is Ruiz. 6 feet 260 lbs + fast hands slow legs leaves himself open to counters though.

    2. Whyte 6'4. 240 lbs. Good left hook can be very aggressive.

    From what you know. Which one of these opponents is best suited for Luis Ortiz?

    Definitely Whyte, Ortiz has the best chance of winning against Whyte

    Whyte based on the fact that Ruiz has a much better chin

    Whyte due to sheer durability factor.

    Whyte is durable?

    Both beat him easily I think

    Whyte has too much power for him, a great left hook, good jab and works the body well.

    Ruiz arguably has the quickest hands in the division, a good counter hook, tough chin and relentless come forward pressure that I dont think Ortiz can handle.

    Andy Ruiz.

    Whyte has a better jab and is a harder puncher. I'm not sure how much vigour Ortiz would have if he were to be cracked in his gut by Whyte in the early rounds.

    Both are competitive bouts - would be a good watch.

    Whyte and Ortiz are around the same height, though. Both over listed, more like 188cm/189cm.

    Whyte. Ruiz has too good a work rate and chin to lose to Ortiz.

    No, he's saying the exact opposite.

    Ortiz's toughest opponents are rigor mortis and fossilization

    Ortiz will KO chinny Whyte. If Ruiz were to lay off the chicharrones, he'd have too much energy for the gracefully aging King Kong.

    Whyte, because his only chance to win is by KO imo. He also has a better chance of being stopped himself by Whyte.

    Whyte.

    Highly motiveted and during 5-6 months in row diligent Ruiz might KTFO both of them cold and no one card there will help.

    Ortiz is slow and I do not believe that he was capable to beat up 40 y.o pre covid Povetkin.
    Also there is no place for A.J smelling fans **** how great AJ is because he had defeated old Povetkin.
    A.J is hero in old uncles fighting and this is reality. Pulev. Klitshko. Povetkin.
    Ha ha ha, not likely A.J might be capable to beat up outside of eddies back yard Ortiz in his own age.
    A.J is specialised in fighting with uncles in his backyard.

    Both Ruiz and Whyte are completely overrated because of Joshua I theyre both 50/50 fights for Ortiz and I would lean towards Ortiz against both
