    Does Luis Ortiz have any other options? What are they? Would take him another year begging for fights if he turns down the fight. PBC got nothing for him. Maybe Hearn would rescue him. That's what his team is waiting on, a lucrative offer from Eddie.

    The boogeyman narrative is crumbling.

      Ortiz will be 43 in march. He's no longer the boogeyman.
      Ruiz was supposed to fight Ortiz. Don't know why Ruiz changed his mind. Showtime was getting ready for that fight.

        I imagine Ruiz would be more interested in that fight after what he saw of Ortiz. It makes sense for all parties.

        And after what I saw of Ortiz, I'd rather see Hrgovic against a top contender/prospect in his prime. Yoka, Sanchez or Makhmudov would be nice.

          Ruiz didn't change his mind. He never wanted Ortiz.
          He was saying things people around wanted to hear.

            Hrgovic don't want none of Oilskin Parker's smoke.

                  Hrgovic team should stop thinking about IBF rankings and make a reasonable offer for somebody good.

                  Somebody like Makhmudov, Gassiev, Wallin, Kabayel, somebody that is not a millionaire yet.

                  Parker will not fight an unbeaten guy that could be dangerous, not for small money.
