    Wlad has alot of experience with southpaw, tricky guys like Byrd. I think being longer and more powerful, he might still be effective with it.

      I thought this very thing during that fight. That uppercut would have ***ed Wlad up. Prime Wlad would be a different story though.

        Klitchkos clinch wouldve been his demise. Ortiz had good speed for a big guy. That short right hook on the inside wouldve been there all day.

          I think Ortiz would give Joshua a test. Idk if he'd beat him necessarily, but he'd probably be as neck & neck with Joshua as he was with Wilder so who knows.

          I really was impressed with Ortiz. I'm one of the few who wasn't on the Ortiz war wagon with how good he was, but he's got some skills & I'm looking forward to seeing him fight some of these other top guys while he's still got some time on the clock with his career. I legit think he's probably the 3rd best guy in the division right now. I personally would favor Ortiz over Parker.

            klitschko's jab and grab game would have still been too good. gotta consider that ortiz is old himself. 38 my ass. that guy is in his mid 40's. iirc amir monsour claimed he heard he was 50

            klitshcko would ahve loved ortiz' pace. he had trouble with fury's speed and jerk motions, and problems with joshua's pace. those shots would be too telegraphed to land on klitschko, who knows how to fight tall, or pick spots and go all the way inside to smother and end exchanges before they start with a clinch.

              Not a chance. It's time to stop this now. It was a good win, no more, no less.
