This old man should fight Takam.

that is not what he said

translated from Spanish he said:

“so any of them will fight me. He mentioned them all.

These British fan boys are so petrified of Luis Ortiz. Why don't Matchroom Boxing give King Kong another chance by signing him to a real contract so he could fight in their Heavyweight tournaments and not on some fight by fight basis? Let him fight some of good British heavyweights on its talent roster in order for him to get his title shot.

I noticed that Eddie Hearn never allows any of his North American or Caribbean born Heavyweight fighters to compete in these tournaments just the Brits. To this day; Jarrell Miller has yet to have fought in Great Britain against a top British fighter contender. Is he a threat to them to?

**** Ortiz! this guy is fighting straight up bums and expecting title shots, who has he fought recently? After Aleen and Scott he went awol, then fought some guy off the street, then got stopped by Wilder, and now another unranked bum.

This guy needs to retire or he needs to fight someone in the top 10 before getting anywhere near a title.

So he wants to fight Joshua and many others want to see him fight Whyte. Remember when he thought Whyte was gonna fight him in the eliminator but Whyte chose Parker. The Ortiz Whye can still happen and still be an eliminator.

Still younger than Ortiz, and better too

Povetkin is six months younger than Ortiz.

You're really using that to your advantage?

Ortiz ends Takam.

to be fair it was on someone who just stood there with his chin in the air. People read too much into fighters knocking out bums. I saw some idiot saying ortiz was more impressive than whyte last night, guess thats boxing in 2018, you get more credit for knocking out some absolute scrub, than beating and dropping (for the the first time) a former world champ who you were underdog against.

I think you have to gauge how they look doing what they did and not just relying on an oblique summary. Bravo to Whyte for dropping Parker who is a former champ. He win and deserves credit. However he didnt look impressive in the fight. He was sloppy held and roughhoused, took a knee to avoid punches, and was all but finished in the 12th save for holding his opponent and the ropes simultaneously.

So for a person to say Ortiz looked more impressive would be true. Whyte did have the better win.

yeah we know damn well what would have happened if he fought ortiz 'joshua fighting wilders leftovers'. and we also know what would have happened if joshua won in better style 'wilder softened him up, ortiz was never the same'. Thats why joshuas right in just doing his own thing, youre never gonna silence the haters. Im sure if he didnt fight povetkin they'd be hyping him up too, 'povetkin got the power to take joshua out and that coward knows it'

😂😂you hit the nail on the head. It’s tiresome sometimes I wonder if these guys ever take a day off

How does speculation on what certain fans would say make for good boxing conversation. Who gives a fig. Isnt it about the actual match ups.

Ortiz is a unicorn in the heavyweight division because he is a southpaw with boxing skills and power. Why is it that so called boxing fans make every excuse in the book to not have him match up against the other top 10 guys.

Seems like some of you guys are more concerned with coming on a comment thread and bragging than actually seeing good fights.

Ortiz ends Takam.

Does he? Takam is a tough guy. I wanna se that fight.

Joshua will stay away from Ortiz, guaranteed. It's no coincidence that Ortiz has disappeared from all rankings except for WBC, the belt Wilder holds. It must be costing Hearn a pretty penny to assure that he doesn't get a shot at Joshua.
