He has the skills, power, and speed to beat both guys. Throw in the fact that he has a great amateur pedigree and he's a southpaw you got the making of a matchup nightmare for both Fury and Wilder.
However time isn't on Ortiz's side. Oscar and Golden Boy need to have him positioned by the summer to be the mandatory for either Fury or Wilder.
The more realistic fight to make is Fury because there isn't any lawsuits going on with his team and I think HBO would probably help put the money up to make that a big investment fight for there network.
I'm hoping for a Big Year for Luis King Kong Ortiz.
He easily beats Wilder. No need really to say why.
Fury outpoints him, though it wouldn't be easy. Ortiz has great skills, but he's slow and plodding. If Fury keeps on his bicycle and uses his reach intelligently he can win a wide decision. Jennings could have kept himself in the fight longer if he'd kept things on the outside instead of turning it into a phonebooth fight. Fury won't make that mistake.
Goddamn though, Ortiz is heavy handed. Very dangerous fighter.
