    What happens if Ortiz unifies the division? Stylistically he is nightmare for Wilder and Joshua.

    He's capable. I hope the big ugly kunt does it, starting with a demolition job on Wilder.

    I am not sure his stamina and footwork are good enough to deal with big tall guys like Wilder or AJ.

    He'll bring Foreman out of retirement in a fight for all the belts. On paper it would be fair.

    To be more serious, I think the best thing that could happen to the division is if one of the belt holder looses their belt to one of the top contenders (of which Ortiz is one), and set up for a rematch. Or even a trilogy.

    That would guarantee some quality fights for the belts, defenses against Molina and Pianetas don't interest me anymore.

    He'll be the oldest and the first heart patient to do that.
    That will be some accomplishment.

    Is he really a heart patient though....heard his meds were a masking agent for the juice.

    Sounds like a horror movie - a 50 year old dude wins all the titles. Guess what - the division will be considered as dead if this happens.

    Boxing forum posters call every Wilder opponent a bum so by default Ortiz is just a bum and not worthy . . . .case closed.

    Hope he beats Wilder but history tells us Cuban heavyweights always fail.

    :lol: Stylistic nightmare is he? My ****, I thought his counter punching coupled with his slow pace and still having stamina issues worked into both AJ and Wilder's favors given AJ at least sets a decent pace and Wilder knows how to posture.

    No, this is proven to be not the case. He would not be fighting even if there was no proof of a masking agent but nothing to suggest otherwise - the fact that the levels were consistent with his medication for a legitimate health situation is why he is allowed to fight on. In fact, a good amount of the time he was off was actually him having to prove his condition is not reason to be banned for his own safety.

    Christ almighty--he's already 50-60 years old. When is he going to do this?

    He stands s very good chance at taking Wilders belt, and s 50/50 chance at then beating the Joshua Parker winner (given the chance)


    I also might add. Of all the current undefeated heavies, Ortiz would stand the best chance at being the last man standing

    Go Ortiz !!
