Great win. Really liking HW right now. Probably the most exciting it's been since mid 90s

A spectacular performance and statement by Ortiz. He is a very good fighter. Exceptional amateur pedigree, very elusive for a heavyweight, has an excellent punch variation, brute strength and huge power. He seems to have all the tools required to make a lot of noise. Those uppercuts that put Jennings down were vicious, devastating shot. Ortiz has shown he is one of the best heavyweights in the worldComment

Fury-Ortiz is a very interesting fight. It all depends if Ortiz can get past that long jab. I don't think anyone in the world can. Fury is also very elusive with good movement. I'd go for Fury to win by decisionComment

It's his own fault. If he didn't want a bad reputation to follow him around then he shouldn't have used PEDs.
The same Wladimir that couldn't knock out Jennings? The heavyweight division is better off now that Ortiz came along to show him how it's done.Comment

I can't help but think that Jennings - by virtue of his performance against Wlad - was being overrated. I think Wlad has been historically overrated to a large degree and thusly, people saw Jennings' performance as something more impressive than it actually was.
Jennings is a nice fighter but he doesn't seem to have much going for him as a top level heavyweight. He can box some and move some, but he doesn't have the power to be in there with the top dogs and his primary skill (infighting) puts him at a very high risk of getting hurt.
What's also funny is now that Ortiz has stopped him so decisively, a lot of the same hype Jennings had will carry over to him. Not saying he doesn't deserve credit for what was obviously a nice win, but some people are already extrapolating his potential.Comment

Well, Klitschko couldn't stop Jennings and in fact had some trouble with him.
Ortiz knocked Jennings out. That sends a pretty big message.Comment
