Comments Thread For: Andy Ruiz: Me & Luis Ortiz Would Be An Exciting Fight; Gotta Talk To Al Haymon

[Deleted]

Ortiz is more shot than Arreola his last opponent wasn't even in the top 100 so his handlers have no confidence in him, his best win over a current heavyweight is Hammer at 42 and his last win over a top heavyweight 5 years ago so ...

I like Andy so it gets him credibility with the casuals and kills Ortiz off so do it, also Andy didn't deal with Arreola like he should so maybe he needs to find his ideal weight.

Andy vs Ortiz .. let's do it.

Credibility with the casuals?! One, would a casual fan even know who Ortiz is and Two, did you look at the top 15 ranked heavyweights. Not saying that Ortiz is at his peak, but there is a reason all those top 15 guys don't add him to their resume. Ortiz is as credible as Dillian, Chisora or Parker. Usyk isn't calling out Ortiz despite being one of the most skilled HWs (yes undersized but amazing skills).

Yeah Andy, sound like you are on the senior tour! I’m not mad at you but at least beat them into retirement so we don’t have to worry about seeing them again.

lol ortiz would get sparked out in the first 5 rounds.

Sure - ur crappy fight with washed up Arreola was such an all-out “war” that the fans were booing ur fat lazy azz!! Fight with Ortiz would b just as lame - A Fatboy v Senior Citizen...probably on ppv!!! Wat a joke pbc has become. Thought the Pbc Charlo sisters said they were doing nothing but ppv from now on

Maybe at first glance he's as credible although I'd argue that. He's not the first fighter to outbox Wilder a few rounds before getting sparked out. His resume is pretty unremarkable, especially over the past few years. His performance against Wilder doesn't look quite as impressive after Deontay got thrashed in his second fight with Fury.

He's fought two live bodies in his career over the course of three fights. In two of those three he's been knocked out brutally. The other one (Jennings) happened ages ago. While Whyte, Parker and Chisora have lost, they have also faced other relevant opponents (and won) and given good accounts of themselves.

At age 42, we don't really know who Ortiz is as a fighter.

I'd like to see Ruiz and Ortiz fight each other. I'd like to see King Kong in against a live opponent sometime before he's eligible for social security.

At this stage, not sure who wins. Both have plenty more questions than answers associated with their careers and we won't get them until they step in the ring with another credible opponent.

Man, what is this? A fucking senior citizen tour? No, fat ass! Fight a contemporary, a peer or someone closer to your own age. Ortiz is done. He's been exposed by Wiider twice.

[HandsofIron]

This dude needs to shed at least 30 lbs before trying to comeback on top, he's still a fat boy.

Dillian Shyte has avoided Luis Ortiz for years.

Nice to see that Andy isn't scared and is willing to fight King Kong.

Good match up!
