    Ortiz is a threat to health workers dealing with C19.

    Can the person who voted for Ortiz tell me how that guy is more dangerous when his best win was 5 years ago and is clearly not going to last much longer at top level after being stopped twice in two years and struggling against a Christian Hammer most likely his health caused the bleeding done to to him in that one not long ago to that of a much younger Usyk and proven talent who was trained by Ali Bashir and is associated with the Klitschko brothers with the fresher legs ?

    So in his last 3 fights, he stinks the joint out against Kaufman and Hammer, 2 fighters I wouldn't even class as gate keepers and then loses to Wilder by gas out in round 7 and we're supposed to consider him a threat to the Heavyweight division?

    On top of that, Ortizn't fought a world title fight propped up by heart meds over two years ago. Ortizn't is nearer 50 than 40 if truth be told and then the OP does some kind of threat analysis along side the best Cruiserweight since Holyfield, if not the best Cruiser ever!

    Is this thread to be even taken seriously?

    Despite the fact Usyk hasn't done anything at HW yet he has tremendous skills, stamina and is by no means small.

    Ortiz was ok at his peak - 20 years ago Now he is a sitting duck for anyone decent.

    Dubois doesn`t have the skill level of Usyk or Ortiz he`s still far too green.

    This. Ortiz was already past prime back in 2016, but in 2020 he’s completely shot.

    Ortiz has never been a threat. The Wilderettes hyped up this guy so much it was laughable.

    Ortiz is at least 50 years old, has high blood pressure, and will not be around much longer.

    Ortiz was past his prime at the same time as Felix Savon.
