Mind-boggling how Stiverne can be #1. Why even have rankings if you're just going to give a pass to former title holders that are barely active?
But Ortiz isn't #1 after defeating Jennings, Thompson, Scott, Allen in the aftermath of Wilder/Stiverne(As opposed to Stiverne who was dropped by and went life and death with Rossy in the time since ). WBC are a complete ****ing joke.
And Ortiz will have to fight a gatekeeper level opponent for peanuts on some undercard while Stiverne gets a title shot for sitting on his ass for 15 months. Priceless.
Even worse... Ortiz has had 6 fights since the aftermath of Wilder/Stiverne, 3 of them solid wins that easily are better than Stivernes lone life and death battle with Rossy.
It gets even worse guys. Whyte has just tweeted that he's fighting Breazele in a final eliminator. So it looks like Wilder's next two opponents will be Stiverne and then the winner of Breazele vs Whyte.
