Comments Thread For: Luis Ortiz Manager: Whyte Never Wanted To Fight Us, Too Risky

[Bronx2245]

Not really. That was on a week's notice or something like that and Parker isn't Ortiz right.

He's not this beast that only Wilder would ever dare to step in the ring with

That's correct, Parker is not on the same level as Ortiz. Neither is Whyte.

March 2, 2018:

True or not, the story is an apt metaphor for Ortiz’s career. A heavyweight southpaw with educated power, he is the ultimate boxing nightmare and is as hard to avoid as he is to find. Of the 28 opponents who have tried to corner him only four have finished the assignment standing up, none with a victorious hand raised...

Ortiz is cut from different cloth. As a Cuban amateur he was as accomplished as many of his compatriots, although he could not get the better of the then estimable Odlanier Solís in five attempts. As a professional he soon became the ogre nobody wanted or needed and he toiled anonymously until two years ago when, in sight of challenging the winner of the world title fight between Wladimir Klitschko and Tyson Fury, he failed a drugs test. Then another. In stepped Anthony Joshua. Out went Klitschko. On foraged Ortiz.

I don't think Whyte wanted this fight either to be fair

Why would he want a non PPV fight for less money with no Wilder next as a reward ?

He gets far more money in a Parker fight which stylistically is less threatening to him and will get Joshua anyway bc Hearn promotes both ....its a waiting game no matter who he fights .

in full agreement here, just stating the obvious

[Acpollar]

I blame all the people how separate this

I blame everyone one of you who keep separating this kind of ducking.. don't put another dime in these Hoe ass UK fighters until they stop running from real fighters.. I still separate Ortiz as the second best heavyweight behind Wilder
.

I can’t believe people are so bias towards wilder they are calling Whyte a ducker for not taking on Ortiz!

Parker is a bloody hard fight, he should be given credit for taking him on! Let’s not forget wilder has already turned down a best ever payday to avoid Whyte also so fair play also to Parker. Whoever wins this fight brings themselves right back into the mix, this is probably a fight which decides who is #3 in the world right now.

wilder said in order for that fight with whyte to be made that aj had to be next and that was never added to the deal bruv. you guys have got 2 stop

AJ and Whyte ducking Ortiz

Let’s not pretend that you didn’t just read this article so hopefully you are not ignorant enough to think it’s possible for Whyte to not have just ducked Ortiz? If you don’t believe this is true please state your case before the world.

What you could be ignorant to is the fight picture several years back. What may need to be explained is that Ortiz was Vlad’s mandatory and he was promised the winner between Vlad and AJ. Vlad had to think over the rematch and decided to retire. At that time it should have been Ortiz verses Joshua. However Hearn moved a later assigned Mandatory in place to keep from having to fight him?

Look...I get it UK culture is strong and you guys love your fighters. But love the truth more than your flag. Some of you guys co-sign on Hearns Bull like he is cutting you a check. Here is a link mate...

Yeah you don’t know anything about boxing.

Ortiz was about to be mandatory but failed a drug test and lost his shot. Whyte called him out for years, to say he’s scared of him is absolutely delusional.

Ortiz hasn’t done anything amateur pro to make anyone duck him. He’s either lost or looked like dog **** every time he stepped up.
