Comments Thread For: Luis Ortiz Accepts Dillian Whyte's Offer To Fight on 12/22 in UK

This should be watched very closely. Hearn and Whyte can come off looking really bad if this fight doesn't happen. With Hearn saying Chisora was the priority, Whyte and the fans should demand a priority change. Lets see how this plays out.

Ok, no point talking to you about this if you are not going to be real about it.

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

No maybes about it when foreign fighters fight Brits in the UK

Well I was being generous and saying he would actually deserve the decision but a fortunate hometown decision would fall into that.

Maybe Whyte eeks out a decision at best that is what he does against anyone credible

I guess over here, we are so used to "foreign" fighters, regardless of background! I think Spence vs. Crawford should be like the Super Bowl, but it's not! Canelo vs. GGG III, Wilder vs. Joshua, McGregor vs. Khabib Nurmagomedov II, would all surpass!

Yep, that’s why as much as
Boxing is booming here.

We’ll never be a home of boxing.

Eddie Hearn is possibly the only promoter that would even have the inclination of having a go.

But we need some sort of KO King like GGG. The Kazakh Olympian that Eddie signed unfortunately is deathly dull

"As a manager my job is to give the best advice and be there for my team but he’s a grown man and the truth is the fighter is the boss so at the end they always have the last word."

Ok, so no more of this, "It's up to my manager who I fight next" crap from any fighter.

Ortiz has bigger balls than Wilder.

I keep reading Whyte is going to do this and that to any decent fighter, my question would be why? What decent dude has Whyte ever really taken it to or put a beating on? I can't recall a single one.

Maybe Whyte eeks out a decision at best that is what he does against anyone credible, find that doubtful but why would anyone think Whyte would beat Ortiz badly what in his track record says he has that sort of capability?

I think Ortiz knocks him out, Ortiz truly believes that also and doesn't like that guy so I think he takes that fight even for short money which is likely still his best financial option and highest profile fight. Ortiz is not a spring chicken as constantly pointed out so he needs to take opportunities that come like this.

They had a great fight already and they’re both Brits.

Until we have a foreign fighter headline a card here - your way of thinking won’t happen.

Nearly always a domestic dust up takes precedent over pretty much everything bar maybe an American champ with a bit of hype behind them.

I guess over here, we are so used to "foreign" fighters, regardless of background! I think Spence vs. Crawford should be like the Super Bowl, but it's not! Canelo vs. GGG III, Wilder vs. Joshua, McGregor vs. Khabib Nurmagomedov II, would all surpass!

If Whyte accepts this Fight he earns my respect 100%. This will be too risky fight which could deny him a rematch with AJ if Wilder doesn't go through. This is what we want 👊
