Whyte v Ortiz?

Whyte is without a doubt a bigger puncher. you must be related to Whyte to think he is a better boxer than Scott.

 

It is known when you get old you start to shrink. 6'4 to 6'3 is to be expected.

 

I remember it being 6 feet 4 inches tall...............but who knows.............Whyte/Ortiz interesting fight, but I would rather see Whyte vs. Wilder...................and a rematch with Ortiz. We all know Wilder will never fight Joshua.........

 

No not related at all. There are different sides to boxing including offence and overall rate whyte as greater in that respect

 

Brown holds a win over Chagaev. Whats Jennings best win?

 

whyte is a clown.

 

chagaev was old and shot when Browne got lucky. browne was old and shot when whyte beat him.

 

He doesn't understand this cause he is a arrogant brit who thinks Whyte is elite.
Whyte is a decent Top 10 hw now, prob ranked between 6-10.
Ortiz is a Top 3 HW. No discussion needed. If you can not recognize that he hould stop thinking he has a clue about boxing.
He rates the Browne win as high as he does is proof enough.

 

if the fight happens i see ortiz beating whyte.

but i cannot see it happening

whyte is ranked number 1 already and the WBC have nominated breazeale above him meaning beating ortiz in a fight i dont think he will win would mean he would be in line for a title shot around 2020 at the earliest.

why pay WBC sanctioning fees and take the risk when if you win you get ranked number 1 when you are already ranked number 1

and the WBC could then install someone else in your place no matter what whyte did.

 

Browne was certainly overrated going into that fight, given his current condition. I have to disagree with you on Ortiz being top 3 though. That essentially means he’s the best of the rest. I’d wager that Parker beats him, and Povetkin would probably be a 50/50.

 

I agree that Browne was massively overrated going into the Whyte fight as a real threat.
But I don't think Parker will beat Ortiz. If Parker fights like he fought AJ he will have a tough time to win on points. If he tries to brawl at the inside i think Ortiz will knock him out. I don't think Parker will knock Ortiz out. Parker lacks power, he couldn't knock out Fury, Cojanu, Ruiz or Takam and Ortiz' chin looked great vs Wilder. I mean how many guys ate that much from Wilders powerful right hands and windmills? Nobody.
Povetkin might be the bigger threat i think. But still i think Ortiz will beat both Parker and Povetkin.
Ortiz looked much better vs Wilder than Parker vs AJ in my opinion.
But i won't let my Top 3 rating count as the one and only opinion so let us say

Top 2 - AJ, Wilder
Top 5 - Ortiz, Parker, Povetkin
Top 10 - Miller, Whyte, Breazeale, Pulev, Kownacki

I think this is a quite fair review of the HWD right now.

 

Yeah, I would probably go with a top 5. I’m not saying Ortiz isn’t 3rd or isn’t justified as being people’s 3rd choice, but I just think it’s up for grabs with Parker and Povetkin as well. From 5 to 10 it’s very uninspiring. I’m looking forward to the likes of Yoka progressing to mix things up.

 

Yeah, outside the Top 5 the level is pretty average if we have to name names like Whyte, Breazeale or Kownacki there.

I hope we will see Joyce stepping up rapidly.

 

Thats like saying Ortiz was when Wilder got him.
What was the evidence of Chagaev being shot? He was coming off a first round KO of Pianetta
What was the evidence of Brown being shot? Many favoured him to beat whyte

 

I also fully believe this fight would be very competitive, but I'm leaning Whyte way
