Comments Thread For: Hearn: I'd Love To Make Luis Ortiz vs. Dillian Whyte For Dec. 22

Can't see this happening. Too risky when Whyte is the front runner for the April13 fight against AJ.

Why can't Shyte fight Ortiz on Dec. 1?

Doesn't he want exposure to an American PPV audience on the undercard of a fight for the lineal heavyweight championship of the world?

There are many subtle ways to duck an opponent. Refusing to fight 3 weeks earlier on a major show would qualify as one of them.

Firstly he does not need the exposure to US audience, Secondly he headlines his own fights. Look lets face it Black boxers are not interested in your racist country anymore unless they are unable to earn good money elsewhere.

Shyte wants a title fight against Wilder, doesn't he?

What better way to set it up then by featuring them both on the same card?

It makes too much sense. But when one side is terrified of taking a loss you can't really force them into the ring.

So if Ortiz declines a PPV of his own to fight some stiff on Wilder's undercard for buttons, Whyte would be the one ducking?

Ortiz has the date already. All Shyte has to do is step in.

What is he afraid of? I thought he said King Kong was just an old man?

Whyte takes risks. He fought Parker when he didn't need to as he is in line for a title shot. A hell of a lot of people thought Parker was the favourite too pre fight.

Fighting as a PPV main event rather on an undercard is the obvious choice in making most money. If the fight doesn't happen then Ortiz has clearly ducked. The supposed feared bogeyman ducks the challenge.

Wilder fans would have to swallow this yet somehow they will claim Whyte ducked.

If it gets made and Whyte exposes this bum the tears of Wilder fans will be hilarious.

Whytes ducking doe . doesn’t want it doe ... pbc fan boys are the worst

[Madison Boxing]

this is the best/only payday ortiz is ever gonna get in his position so he better take it. whyte beats him but we all know whats gonna happen, 'he wasnt the same after wilder beat him' the same excuse we hear when a crawford opponent gets whooped in their next fight.

[Robbie Barrett]

Haymon fighters stay being scared ****less of Whyte. This is a guy that has done more than anyone else for a shot but so called boxing fans that form the Wilder protection service want him nowhere near.

No way is Hearn letting Whyte get KTFO on a Wilder vs Fury undercard.

A Joshua vs Whyte in house matchup is the stuff Hearn’s dreams are made of
