Comments Thread For: Luis Ortiz Destroys Cojanu With Devastating Left in Two

This fight show why Whyte ducked Ortiz!!!!!


Am I doing this right?

Ortiz turned the fight down for last night. He wanted a later date. So sort yourself out.

And besides, Ortiz only has 2 rounds of stamina so the pace Whyte set would have proved too much for him. Whyte knocks him out.

If that one two punch combination; The right hook followed by the left cross would have landed on Anthony Joshua then we would have ourselves a new champion. That's why Hearn is protecting his guys from Luis Ortiz. He won't allow anyone in his stable to fight King Kong. I have a proposition for Eddie Hearn. If Wilder turns down that April 13, 2019 date at Wembley then offer it to Luis Ortiz. He would be more than happy to take that fight.

At which point could Joshua fight Ortiz? He fought Wlad which was a much bigger fight with the WBA also being on the line. He then fought his IBF mandatory which he had to do before he satisfied the WBA mandatory to keep his title. Ortiz then fails a test and is taken out of the rankings for all of Joshua's titles. Joshua couldn't have fought him even if he wanted to. So Joshua fights in a unification with Parker which is a bigger fight by the way. And now he had to fight his mandatory in Povetkin. So at no point could Joshua fight Ortiz. Sorry, but the facts are against you here. But you're American so you push your own agenda all day. But it's wrong.

The British public were SCREAMING! for a Joshua-Takam fight, though. Right?

Takam was the mandatory. Joshus had to fight his IBF mandatory before the WBA mandatory to keep his title. Had Joshua gone with Ortiz first, he would have lost the IBF.

Get this through your thick heads for ****s sake.

My ninja King Kong jumped back like cooked crack. Them UK boys are over there scared to death

No one is scared of Ortiz. The guy is a nobody. His only win of merit is decent which was against Jennings a couple of years ago. That's pathetic.

And Ortiz certainly hasn't improved his standing by beating that big stiff bum last night.

Ortiz definitely made the case that he should get the winner of wilder/AJ. My guess is aj would win but I’d love to see how he’d handle Ortiz power.

Why? Are you afraid? C'mon, Ortiz is 49 year old who is on high blood pressure medicines. Surely Joshua wouldn't be afraid a fighting an old man now wouldn't he? Ok fine, how about Dereck Chisora then?

And When was Joshua able to fight Ortiz? There has never been an opportunity to do so.

My man, a Joshua fight would sell no matter who he decides his next opponent will be because he has a $25mil guarantee and is hugely popular among casual fans in the U.K. Especially in Great Britain. For example he'll do at least 80,000 in Cardiff, Wales vs Luis Ortiz alone because he is the box office draw.

Besides, a Luis Ortiz fight would generate even more profits for Joshua to make than a potential Dillian Whyte rematch; Which means he'll get a higher percentage of the upside of the money from both the live gate and on PPV because chances are Ortiz won't get a percentage.

It's highly likely Ortiz gets only a flat-fee just as Deontay Wilder had been offered.

But Dillian wouldn't ask for a percentage against Joshua. He knows that would be madness. He'd make his biggest payday, yeah. But he's getting no more than that. And nor would he ask for it.

British fans would buy PPV for the Whyte rematch because he's a good fighter who is more proven than Ortiz. So no, the Ortiz fight doesn't sell more. Stop going on like you know what you're talking about because you clearly don't.

Yeah but Parker engaged with Whyte a lot more than he did with Joshua. Had Parker gone about it in the same way, Joshua would have done some serious damage to that boy.

Of course, am pointing out how boxing triangle is meaningless, just because Parker got put down by Whyte doesn’t mean Whyte is more powerful than Joshua as confirmed by their 2015 fight.

Whyte now brings his own PPV platform, so he is even more deserving of % if the market is right.

I would really like to see Ortiz versus Whyte next. Or Miller/Ortiz/Pulev/Whyte, it would be nice to get more competition outside of those two main guys.
