Would Eddie Hearn offer Luis Ortiz that April 13, 2019 date if Wilder turns it down?

[juggernaut666]

hearn is not letting none of his men close to Ortiz, he already promised Ortiz an aj match and then ditched him

"Following the rules for a unified champion you have to go chronologically in terms of when the mandatories are ordered. The IBF mandatory was ordered nearly a year ago and the WBA one was ordered a couple of months ago. We really want to fight Luis Ortiz in February or March and we’ll do a deal to fight him now. "

"I think what they want is they want to fight*Wilder, plus get some step aside [money] from us. So that’s what they’re working on and I don’t see why we should. If the rules are going to be followed, which I think they will be, then I don’t think we need to give him step aside. We’d rather he didn’t fight Wilder and we’d rather he fought Joshua. ""



"We’ll give a fight at the Millennium stadium, he can have a nice warm up and then we’ll do the fight in February or March.”


Eddie Hearn


See you can write fictional stories daily on here but the reality is Hearn offered PUBLICLY Ortiz a guaranteed contract for him to fight Joshua AFTER Pulev but Ortiz CHOSE not too and finagle getting Joshua stripped AND persuing Wilder.

The problem with that was the ACTUAL governing body rules didnt let him do that and told him to sit and wait his turn like a good boy ! lol

Joshua had sighned to fight Klitchko in October 2016 , Hearn did not sign Ortiz untl that November but THEY ditched Ortiz bc Joshua didnt fight Klitchko until April 2017 ,right ?



P.S What MEN does Hearn have outside of Whyte who is focused on Joshua that he wont let near Ortiz ? lol

The same Whyte who challenged Ortiz back in 2016 when Ortiz was in the U.k right ? lol

as I stated b4 aj whyte or any of these guys will never fight Ortiz. its funny you like to use these article statements when it suits you but when one is posted that proves hearn is lying you ignore it or make up another argument in favor of them.

AJ is going to be so tied up with so many mandatory title defenses by April of 2019, that a voluntary defense outside of a Deontay Wilder bout is just isn't possible.

What on earth are you talking about? Joshua has just faced Takam for his IBF mandatory and Povetkin will be both the WBA and WBO mandatory. He’ll have no issue getting a voluntary fight next whoever it is.

no way they're fighting a lefty with power. joshua's goign to fight guys without a lot of pop. takam, parker, etc. povetkin when he's off tthe drugs was never a big puncher. remember early in his career?

You haven't heard the news. Just recently the WBO has made Oleksandr Usyk their Super Champion.

Which means if he ever decides to move up to the Heavyweight division, he then becomes Anthony Joshua's mandatory challenger immediately. I provided a link for you below.

Then there's the IBF mandatory challenge coming up soon; Which he hasn't defended in almost a year. April would be 18 months since he has defended that title last and there is no way the IBF will let him hold onto it for another 8 months without defending it before April 2019.

They wouldn't allow me to provide the link so is the story.



"The unified cruiserweight champion" can now request to become Joshua's mandatory challenger at any time. Oleksandr Usyk has taken a huge step towards a potential future fight with Anthony Joshua by becoming a WBO 'super champion'.

The Ukrainian unified all four major belts by beating Murat Gassiev on July 21 and is now the undisputed cruiserweight king, talkSPORT wrote. The first title he won was the WBO world championship, which he claimed from Krzysztof Glowacki. Read alsoAnthony Joshua fancies Ukrainian master Oleksandr Usyk in future heavyweight bout – media Usyk has now made his fifth defence of that belt and, as he also unified all the titles, the WBO have declared him a 'super champion'.

This is quite a rare occurrence with the WBO, who are reluctant to complicate their title situation like other governing bodies have been known to do. The WBO only afford 'super champion' status to true kings of their division, in order to grant them special privileges. One of these privileges is the ability to automatically become the mandatory challenger in the weight division above or below, should they choose to move up or down.

"The votes have already taken place to name Usyk the WBO 'super champion'," a WBO representative exclusively told talkSPORT.

"He will be given a special belt. "Based on the rules of the WBO, his promoter can request to the championship committee to name Usyk the mandatory challenger in the heavyweight division." It is unknown whether Usyk will look to activate this right in the near future, as he is currently eyeing up a potential bout against Tony Bellew. Nevertheless it is understood his long-term goal is to face Joshua, and he now has a straightforward route to get there.

The Takam fight took place October 28, 2017, which means AJ has another IBF mandatory due by October 28, 2018.

The WBA & WBO are next in the rotation, which is why AJ won't be stripped for fighting Povetkin, but by the time April 13, 2019 rolls around, the IBF mandatory will be long overdue. Six months overdue. May be difficult to get anything approved in front of the IBF mandatory other than a unification with Wilder.

Thanks for the confirmation; You are spot on!

You see that. It seems that Joshua now needs Wilder a lot more than Wilder needs him, if he wants to keep all his title belts intact because if he doesn't fight Wilder the IBF is going to strip him of their title.

Didn't know that... that complicates things.

That doesn't sound right? Sure it does sound like another voluntary April next year may not happen, but to keep all his titles all he'll have to do is fight his IBF mandatory then. Doesn't need Wilder at all in that case?
