Comments Thread For: Joseph Parker-Luis Ortiz: The Unconsidered Alternative Outcome

[K Man]

I wish Ortiz would've never taken the step aside for AJ to fight Klitschko, and just forced the issue with Joshua! Eventually AJ swerved him, and he got old and inactive. Basically, we have Wilder facing an old man, and we had AJ fight an even older man, who was even more inactive than Ortiz!
Hopefully Gassiev and Usyk move up and make things more interesting in the HW division!

.. I do understand your issue to fight the OLD but AJ had to fight a 42yr Klit. (the true passing of the torch). Klit passed his peak and it had to happen. Ortiz could’ve made wiser choices a few years ago but we need to keep the ball rolling.

The true passing of the torch happened when Tyson Fury beat Klitschko, not when AJ beat Klitschko!

I don't see why anyone would say the hw division is exciting or good right now. There is AJ and Wilder. Then everyone else. Parker probably is #3 behind those two and he has looked like ****. This is no different than the last decade. Except AJ and Wilder aren't brothers like Vlad and Vitali. When they ruled everyone complained that after them everyone was horrible. Which isn't entirely wrong. Now instead of Vlad and Vitali and then the rest it is AJ and Wilder then the rest. And AJ is acting like he will not face Wilder, so it really is the same. Top two guys are by far the best, but will never fight each other.

I'm a Wilder fan, but I honestly don't get anyone saying beating Ortiz proves anything. Ortiz is fat and old and out of shape. He had power and energy when he was on his peds. He was good then. Then he got popped and ever since he has looked worse and worse in every fight. He's a bum now.

You're 100% correct! Hopefully Povetkin gets off that ****, and Gassiev, and Usyk, move up to make things interesting!

Wilder seems less focused on Ortiz, lil bit worrying

How old is Ortiz??? Man his birth certificate has to be fake

[vitali1999]

What exactly is Ortiz' level? Who has he fought and beaten? Did you see his last 2 fights?

I don't know where all this imaginary level is coming from, he has not fought better competition than Wilder.

Everybody in the division has fought better competition than wilder

Right, just a knockout waiting to happen now..no upset.

If both Joshua & Wilder lose the HW division might be cursed or something cuz that'll f#ck up the whole party cuz Parker isn't THAT sellable & Ortiz is 64 years old so he won't have much longer win or lose.

I think one could lose & it'll be w/e & Wilder can lose to a lot of mfers in my eyes so it wouldn't be too surprising if he were to lose to Ortiz.

Ortiz is fired up with his bravo & amateur experience, k.o. ratio can be dangerous. Albeit, Ortiz-Parker is PPV sellable with Wilder-Joshua on undercard. All is possible. I’d pay for this!

Both Wilder and Joshua would have to lose twice for this situation to happen considering they both have rematch clauses. What's the odds on both of them losing to Ortiz and Parker respectively once let alone two times in a row?
