I have the impression that our Ortiz will have it in the bone. Rumors pushed back the fight from September to early November and then to the end of November. Remember the fight against Fury would be signed for February 22 ... So it will give a Wilder who has only made one round against Breazeale in 15 months.
Wonder what's holding things up. It might just be some eleborate ruse to wait what happens in the Joshi vs Ruiz rematch, before making a move. Pretty sure if Jr wins again, we'll get Ruiz vs Wilder coming on PBC PPV near you.
Fight of the year candidate. Id much rather Ortiz clubber a top ten heavyweight. Ortiz is being sent to the slaughterhouse & he knows it. Ortiz is quoted recently saying "either I ko Wilder or he Kos me" Ortiz ko's Aj a lot of people thought that for many many years
Team wilder isn't stupid ( not including Wilder) . They know they cant compete with the Ruiz fight and will wait until the press conferences are over to officially announce it. If they do it now it will be a who cares because everyone wants to see the Joshua rematch and everyone knows it has more competent people behind that fight all around ,wilder vs Ortiz is minuscule in world interest ,its not remotely a global fight.
