Deontay should keep his eyes on Ortiz, he seems to be massively overlooking his business tonight.Comment

If he KOs Ortiz tonight in similar fashion to that Stiverne performance, I dont see how any logical fan would favor Joshua over him.
AJ gets hit right down the pocket relatively easy based on what I've seen. The straight right was there for VK all night and he was exploiting it.
I do think AJ (and Ortiz) is a better technically sound fighter, but Wilder has some rare power and he's quicker than many seem to acknowledge. He can get off on any of the current top guys. I think a prime Fury would've been tougher than his current threats.
Not saying he's the best or most complete, but he definitely has some tools that could topple anybody out there right now.Comment

This fight doesn't alter my Joshua-Wilder prediction at all. Ortiz is too old and too slow, Wilder will stop him.
Joshua-Wilder prediction goes two ways;
- Wilder boxes very defensively and Joshua eventually stops him in 6 rounds.
- Wilder trades and Joshua wins inside 2.Comment

I'm an AJ fan because he's a true pro. He doesn't b*tch like a little girl wanting something he's not willing to work for. Or a pompous ass that talks smack and fight third tier palookas because his skill level depends on size and KOs as his skill set sucks.Last edited by yoshik; 03-03-2018, 11:30 AM.Comment

Just keeping it real, Ortiz is 38. And even if he's older, he's still a top 5 guy.
When Kovakev beat Hopkins people acted like it was an all time great victory. I don't see why Wilder wouldn't get credit for besting a guy Joshua wouldn't take on following VK (Ortiz was his mandatory too).Comment

Dude AJ eats straight rights regularly. If he gets caught by Wilder, that doesn't go over well at all for him. I can easily see AJ stepping into one of those punches. And I'm a big AJ fan. It's not as simple as you're claiming. He's been gassed and wobbly against guys who aren't as gifted as this version of Wilder.Comment
