Is there any reason Whyte-Ortiz should not be next?

    So Hearn and Whyte were just lying then?

      It would be some cowardly shyt to dare Ortiz to fight you, to the point of insulting and taunting him, then run when he agrees. A lot of UK fans here seem to have no problem with it though, which is sad.

        No, Chisora was always the first choice. Recent quote from Eddie Hearn ""If Chisora don't want to fight or a deal can't be done then, he's ready. If Luis Ortiz really wants the fight then let's do it. A WBC eliminator, a great fight." Nobody was lying.

          Because they actually managed to make money off of Whyte. Hearn isn't throwing that away just so Ortiz can knock him out.

            So why did Shyte tweet about Ortiz that "We can go Dec(ember) 22?”

            Now that Ortiz accepted he is backtracking.

              Naw man Whyte literally told the man to move from his date and fight him in England...this would be a straight up duck in the highest order

                First of all, Ortiz is the one who called him out in the first place. And like I said Hearn has always made clear that Chisora was their first choice.

                  Nobody is backtracking. Chisora is a bigger money fight and was always their first choice. Is that really so hard to understand?

                      I would like to see that fight, but in the UK Chisora vs Whyte is massive.
