Who is the tougher opponent? Joseph Parker or Luis Ortiz?

[R_Walken]

I think they're basically about the same

Both Wilder & AJ are fightig the best available opponents without fighting each other or Fury. Both fights are legit

Basically all top 4 guys are fighting each other

Parker has a trinket which is interesting , Ortiz has the pedigree and more boogeyman status and is IMO a tougher opponent but is probably in his mid 40s

They're both good fights

And hopefully the winners square off sometime in 2018 early 2019

Parker, young decent boxer, beat the better opponents, current title holder.

Ortiz looked great against Jennings, better than anyone else but you could say Jennings made Ortiz look great. Ortiz looked uninspired and one dimensional after. And some say old. And he got caught PEDing multiple times.


But if you're asking if Ortiz is tougher for Wilder than Parker is for Joshua, then I have to say yes. Wilder can't box that well and it showed against every decent opponent he fought. So yes, Ortiz will trouble Wilder more than Parker will trouble Joshua, old or not.

PED Ortiz,or non-PED Ortiz?

[Rip Chudd]

If championship fights are any indications it doesnt look good for Parker , because he hasnt had many one sided fights since Takam and looked average in them .

Ortiz is going to bring his best at least we have to assume that bc fighters up their game in title fights .


Ortiz is the better skilled guy ,by far harder to push around and is overal much better at controlling fights , hes barely lost any rounds while Parker struggles in almost every fight .

Parker has the better overall resume but looking at the fighters themselves , Ortiz poses the bigger challenge ,i see no performance to think otherwise . Getting a W on him is not as easy as suggested ,hes still a top 3 fighter and has a far better understanding of range and taking away someones jab than Parker does .

Jugg for the win! Great post

when did your main account get banned??? joined in 2015 and only started posting this month?

I had so many accounts, i forgot -> i think that was the answer you want to get me ?

To be true, i had 2nd thoughts about writing here at all. While there are people wanting to discuss boxing, its way too many people who just want to push their ego with disrespectfull comments.

And all these race nonsense discussions are laughable, kindergarden and will get me out of here sooner than later probably.

I remember a lot of us were really high on Parker at first. Then the more we saw of him the less impressive he became.

One shot

Ortiz has heavy hands and we know Eric M. rock DW in there fight so if he lands a great shot , good night . JP couldn't even hurt Fury or Ruiz and he is pretty slow . Funny DW said he is KO Ortiz and AJ is in for a long night, nope it's going to be the other way around .. JP woke up a sleeping giant with all that disrectpecting about the champ !! Going to kill him in 3 !!!

Impossible to answer all I can say is they are both ****.

[Redd Foxx]

I'll put it this way; I'd pick Ortiz over Parker if they fought.

Parker. Ortiz is near 40.
