Why did Ortiz choose to fight Wilder over Joshua?

[kafkod]

this will be the only time i address you...just once...dont bother replying....i already know what/who im dealing with and you arent worth my time

AJ and hearn are stalling with wilder plain and simple...all the evidence is there......its fine if you want to say parker makes more sense right now and the wilder fight should be next year or 2019...but its clear they are stalling it

and im not making a comparison to aj and golovkin...im making a comparison to golovkin and ortiz in the situation robbie presented....golovkin could have fought ward while waiting on canelo but chose the safer route to guarantee a canelo showdown.....ortiz, maybe, could have waited for a fatter payday but chose to take on one of the top 2 HWs now because he DGAF and wants to fight and prove himself.....

Wtf? You are seriously saying that GGG was in the same situation with Ward as Ortiz was in with AJ?

GGG wasn't even in the same division as Ward .. let alone mandatory to a world title held by Ward, you fucking numpty!

But yeah .. duh .. he could have fought Lemieux, then moved up and fought Ward at 168, then moved back down and fought Canelo at 160, all in the space of what .. about 8/9 months?

Easy work.

youve gone off the deep end robbie...RIP

robbie...i used to think you were a decent poster...now youve gone and ruined it....you are now relegated to the troll/fanboy segment of the scene population

He's always been a trolling jackass but you didn't seem to mind as long as he trashed the same fighters you do.

what balls on that loeffler guy!!!

"hey ward sorry we not interested...maybe at 164........oh ok you are long gone to 175 now? ok hey man if you ever come back to 168 let us know" LOLOL....what a sham

not to mention loeffler has stated if they went up to 168 it would be on a one fight basis and they would go back to 160

Yea I know that's how it works. As for looking in the mirror, I'm actually neutral. I've separated myself from the fanboys of fighters I like and trolling detractors of fighters I dislike.

Ward was the better legacy fight for Golovkin and would have been a big payday anyway. Not the case with Wilder. Joshua is recognised as the number 1 HW. Try again.

It would have been a big Roc Nation Sports payday for Ward, but not for GGG.

Ward vs Beterbiev, Bivol, Gvozdyk, would have been awesome legacy fights for Andre.

No criticism of him for retiring instead of taking them, because the money wasn't good enough doe.

A win over Ward would have been better than anyone Golovkin can beat now. You can't argue against that.

Ortiz would always have been one to avoid for Matchroom.

He'd have no reputation with the casuals. Doesn't speak any English and he looks at least 84-years-old.

He could have waited on that mandatory shot but those sanctioning bodies will bend for AJ. And Wilder has given him his shot.

I'm interested in a Wilder scrap for the first time. It is a dangerous pick and for me the best guy he could fight next.
