Not only am I being real I"m posting proof. You're posting opinion.

Hearn didn't need to sign Ortiz and give him a fight against an easy opponent on AJ's undercard.

He didn't need to introduce Ortiz to the UK fans, who had mostly never even heard of him, and tell them ... "This is Luis Ortiz. He is the mandatory challenger for AJ's WBA title"

Maybe you can tell me .. if Hearn wanted to avoid Ortiz, why on earth would he have done that?

Hearn is the only one who can mess this up.

Respect to both AND Hearn if they fight Dec. 22, but I feel this is likely going to be a situation where Hearn f#cks this sh^t up.

People love to act like fighters are preventing fights from happening & its obviously waaaaaay more fun to accuse fighters directly of being chicken sh^t, but the reality is the business sh^t don't make sense for one or both fighters or the promoter is shutting sh^t down for his own reasons more often then not when fights aren't happening.

Scared boxers is an oxymoron.

Did you see Michael Spinks face in the ring before he fought Tyson??

I like this fight, I think Whyte takes Ortiz out after getting hurt himself and losing some rounds.

[R.KHLMS4LIFE]

Unless injury to Ortiz or Whyte gets a new trainer this isn't going to be a good fight for Whyte Ortiz would be a great match for Joshua in April then Wilder in Sept or Oct if Wilder beats Fury. Wilder vs Fury I give Wilder a 60% chance Wilder style is better for Joshua than fury vs Joshua he has a 70+% chance winning

I can understand being proud of Hearn, and admiring what he's building, but can't they see the difference between Ortiz, Whyte, and Chisora? Do they actually miss the difference in skill level?

The problem in this country is Sky (the company matchroom has a tv deal with) completely dominates the UK tv market and further dominates the sports sector. So it allows them to constantly feed all these casuals with propaganda.
The genuine fans obviously see through it but there seems to be fewer and fewer of us these days.

Wtf?

Jarrell Miller talking **** about Eddie Hearn is not proof of anything except Miller's own opinion!

These are facts:

Dillian Whyte called Ortiz out when Ortiz was fighting for Matchroom.

Ortiz was AJ's WBA mando and Hearn put him on AJ's undercard against a well known domestic UK HW he was sure to beat.

That was exactly the same thing Hearn did with Povetkin when Sasha took over Ortiz's WBA mando spot.

Ortiz lost his WBA mando position because he signed with Haymon and got KTFO by Wilder.

It was Ortiz's own decision to do that. Eddie Hearn did not make him do it.

Hearn was working with Ortiz on a fight by fight basis, so he was a free agent after the Dave Allen fight.

Those are not my opinions, those are facts.

i said it on another thread & i'll say it again whyte doesnt make it to the championship rounds fighting ortiz. his STYLE is all wrong for ortiz. ortiz doesnt have "leaky" defense, he WILL counter a orthodox fighter over there jab OR hook. Wilder is Faster & WAY more POWERFUL than dillian whyte and ortiz was countering off of missed right hands and left hooks from deontay wilder **** he can probably get of two or 3 shots and be defensively responsible against whyte. ortiz will work the body and break down dillian whyte. the ONLY thang whyte has over ortiz is AGE thats IT. he doesnt do ANYTHANG better than ortiz, & i mean ABSOLUTELY NOTHIN

Whyte is an awful boxer, taylor made to be counter punched. so poorly balance and un-composed he looks drunk in most of his fights.


Ortiz will expose him horribly. It will be funny to watch if it happens.
