Comments Thread For: Bermane Stiverne: I Knew Wilder-Ortiz Fight Would Never Happen

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

The primary reason Bermane Stiverne was willing to step aside and allow the Deontay Wilder-Luis Ortiz fight to be made was because he was certain it wouldn't happen. The former WBC heavyweight champion revealed during a conference call Tuesday that he felt all along as if he were preparing to fight Wilder again November 4 at Barclays Center in Brooklyln (Showtime). Stiverne signed a contract to battle 6-feet-7 Dominic Breazeale on the Wilder-Ortiz undercard for that very reason, as Wilder also stands 6-7.

Basically he knew that Stiverne would fail testing.

Did he just say if you dont believe me, ask don king?! Lol.

He's hardly the only one to have predicted it. People who follow boxing knew from the moment the rumours started circulating that it's all smoke and mirrors and the fight would never happen.

Stiverne said he known Ortiz since "2004 and he is who he is right now." Which I take from that is he's probably been doping for a while he just implied it.

Even though Stiverne claims he's been training for wilder its still not going to change the outcome of the fight!

Better get that ambulance and hospital bed booked again then.

I think we all knew it wasn't happening. After watching that pitiful press-conference where Ortiz literally phoned it in, I seriously thought "this can't be serious?".

He knew because he & Ortiz get their dope from the same person
