Comments Thread For: Showtime's Espinoza on Deontay Wilder's Options For The Fall

[kafkod]

I really think that Wilder doesn't want to fight Whyte because Whyte is one Eddie's guys.

Dear lord .. how old are you, Terry?

Im surprised wilder never told Fury to fight ortiz first..

And Ortiz's highest achievements - amateur or pro - are beating Bryant Jennings and getting stripped of the WBA regular title for failing the post-fight PED test.

Bottom line, Ortiz is a good heavyweight. Any win over him is a quality win.

Absent a title fight, I want Whyte to fight Ortiz. Why, because this isn't cartoons where you sit back and argue back and forth about which super hero would beat the other. This is sports entertainment and I want to see good fights. I'm not one of these fans that doesn't care about match ups and simply wants to see a guy from my country with a belt so I can brag about it. I want to see good fights. I'll leave the "he shouldn't have to...", "he doesn't deserve …", and the "he only fights bums.." talk to the fan boys who are more interested in winning internet arguments than they are in seeing good fights.

So what are you complaining about?

Whyte vs Parker was a great fight!

You understood exactly what I was referring to and it surely wasn't a complaint about the Parker Whyte fight. I'm glad you watch the fights and can tell a good fighter when you see one regardless of who he's fighting. You know, like how GGG was good, yet he hadn't been matched up with high caliber fighters until his last few fights.

Well, as a kid I remember watching Floyd Patterson KO Hurricane Jackson in living black and white.

Dillian fought Parker instead of Ortiz, and it was great fight. You might have prefered him to fight Ortiz, but I think Parker was a better and more challenging option.

As for GGG, he is one of the top 10 MWs of all time, so good that when he was in his prime he made high calibre opponents look like nothing and world title holders like Sturm, Quillin, Martinez, run for cover when he came knocking.

Whyte v Parrker was a good match up that I felt would determine the levels of both. They brought out the best and worst of each other. I didn't have a preference as to who Whyte should fight and was shocked he didn't fight Pulev for the IBF mando. Now that he's beaten Parker, would like to see him fight Ortiz for the value of the fight and its impact on the heavyweight landscape. Whyte showed that he's improved since his KO loss and close sc**** with Chisora, an Ortiz fight would definitely demonstrate a higher level of improvement (disciplined southpaw who can ****).

I try and leave all that emotion out of my explanations. These guys don't fight for me nor do they represent me. Wait...who was the high caliber opponent that GGG made look like nothing?

Whyte fighting Ortiz has no impact.Whyte is ranked number 1 in 2 sanctions and Ortiz is only ranked in one lololol
