Comments Thread For: Wilder's Handlers Discussing Ortiz Replacements for November 4

Is this a curse or what? First it was Povetkin, now it's Ortiz?

Unbelievable.

Look at the prescription bottle posted by the Cuban website (provided by Ortiz).

It has five refills, 30 pills, one per day.

Look at the expiration date.

It's clear that he "suddenly came down with a blood pressure condition that can only be treated by banned masking diuretics" as soon as he came to terms to fight Wilder.

He's been tested by VADA before. Never tested positive for this medication before.

Then, out of the blue, when he opens camp to get ready for Wilder, he is diagnosed with this and the ONLY medication he is given is on the banned substance list (which is supposed to be supplied to his doctor so he can be provided with medication that is not performance enhancing and is not used for masking PEDs). He is also supposed to disclose this on his VADA form when he's tested. He did neither.

He's a two time loser drug cheat.

He should be forced into retirement so he can focus on his health and worry about his blood pressure.

I would like to step in. If anyone who has any pull on this fight reads this board, send me a private message. I'm not a Heavyweight but I am down. We can do it for charity, winner takes all, whatever. Let's Fxcking Go!

You fought ATG Charlie Zelenoff for crying outloud. How bad could I be?

I volunteer as well. I fit the part perfectly, 5´11, 210, over 40 yo and I can´t really box (I´m still pretty sure I´m less clumsy than Whyte). But fcuk charity, I´m keeping the money.

I hope this fight goes on. It stinks for Wilder that this has happened now before the 2 biggest fights of his career. We keep saying he needs to prove himself and then these guys keep getting popped for PED.

If this is just some BP medicine then the fight should go on IMO. I think Ortiz can easily outbox Wilder over 12 but can he go 12 without getting that bomb dropped on him and going to sleep? Was gonna be an interesting fight I think.

They did test him randomly. He failed. End of story.

I already admitted that Ortiz must be punished. I was just thirsty to see Wilder fight a HW with real talent, like Ortiz, Miller, or Joshua! Hopefully they find someone on short notice, but I doubt it! Dillan Whyte?
