    Basically, I'm most likely going to watch the Whyte fight in my local pub. It's not a big pub, so they're not going to show both the Whyte fight and Frampton - Warrington, if both are PPV.

    Whyte and Chisora are bigger names than Frampton and Warrington, so they will show that fight if it happens. Hardly anyone knows who Ortiz is though, so if it's Whyte - Ortiz on PPV then they're going to show Frampton - Warrington.

    If Whyte - Ortiz were to be on Sky Sports though, I could watch both.

    So logistically, I would prefer Whyte - Chisora PPV over Whyte - Ortiz PPV, Whyte - Ortiz on Sky Sports over Whyte - Chisora PPV, and no preference if either is on Sky Sports.

      Whyte/Chisora will be December. Ortiz is fighting on the Wilder/Fury undercard.

      No casuals in the UK know who Ortiz is unfortunately.

          Oh, I know how the fights WILL be. I'm just saying how I wish they would be.

            That makes sense. Thank you. I forgot that you guys had so many pay per views over there.

              the way you all overrate takam, joe parker, dillian white, basically any non-american HW who fought joshua, is hysterical. it's absolutely hysterical.


              derrick chisora is on the back 9, getting close to 10 losses, not a big puncher. but go ahead and consider him a better fight than luis ortiz, a left handed, cuban puncher and a much more dangerous HW, i don't give a **** how casual you all are

                at least you're honest. nothing wrong with being a casual boxing fan, most of you are. take this from a non casual with no dog in the fight, ortiz is the higher ranked fighter for a reason, he's a flat out better fighter at this stage in his career. if he hit white with the kind of leather that chisora, a VERY light puncher for a 240 lber, was able to land the fight will end in a knockout.

                  Depends, only casual sports viewers will prefer in house brit v brit, fans wil want Ortiz and non sport fans also prefer vs others for patriotism etc bull****. Only casual non boxing sports fans want chis/whyte but thats who eddy targets as his udiene, football fans etc, hence his big low ticket price gates

                    Every hardcore boxing fan wants to see him fight Ortiz. It’s a better fight but we won’t get it. Chisora vs Whyte is in house and does most likely does more money due to casual fan, business drives the fights so we’ll see that.

                      Ortiz was never in the running.
