Lol Ortiz at saying he hasn't thought about Joshua since he ducked him, all he does now when interviewed is say Joshua is a coward. Maybe he just forgot the other dozen times this last month he's said something about Joshua. But I guess at his old age dementia and the memory loss that comes with that is to be expected.
“I see myself breaking down Joshua to the body and ripping his head off with right hooks and straight left hands over the course of eight rounds. But at least Wilder put his money where his mouth is, stepped up and fought me. I’ve got zero respect for Joshua, who, at this point, is a complete punk hiding behind his puppeteer promoter [Eddie Hearn]” - Luis "King Kong" Ortiz
AJ is the odd man out! Still hasn't faced Wilder, Ortiz, nor Fury! One was signed to MatchRoom, one is from the UK, and he turned down $50 million to fight the other! Not a good look! MAN UP!
If Fury wins on Saturday, Wilder has a rematch clause, and I'm sure he will exercise it immediately! If that happens, and AJ was all about fighting the best, he would make a "real" offer to fight Ortiz in April! Choosing Whyte or Chisora might make more money, but it does nothing for his image! AJ needs to fight Wilder, Fury, or Ortiz! I think Big Baby is a better opponent than Whyte! Whyte survived Parker in the 12th? How does that happen? Parker doesn't hurt anybody!
“I’m not saying they should have stopped my fight with Wilder, but I’m just saying that if they had let Klitschko go on, who knows what Joshua had left in the tank?”
I wish we saw it. I have a feeling that Klit would survive and AJ's tank was on its low.
From the man who had a chance to get himself in a mandatory defence slot for Joshua, then ran down the WBC route instead? Ortiz is just looking for the fastest route possible to a title shot with the least effort required, as he knows he's older than official records say and his boxing career is on borrowed time.
