Comments Thread For: Joshua Will Be Ringside, Scouting The Whyte-Chisora Rematch

This fight has zero pulse in the States

I don't know what you tag reasonable offer but personally I believe wilder has been offered a mouth watery contract plus 4 belts in line. An offer that is still way higher than his biggest pay.

What's else do you want? Give him all the purse?

I'd say 35-40% is reasonable.

are Joshua fans still trying to convince everyone that AJ did not duck Wilder..... as Joshua hastily makes plans to be ringside at Whyte/Chisora.....?

really..... ?

loooool

It may well shake out that way, but let's see it. I agree with you that Fury outboxes AJ, but I think AJ-v-Ortiz is a very competitive, potentially very exciting fight.

Yes it would be competitive. Ortiz might even last to a decision if he gets hurt to much he might get on his bike.

Good grief. Hearn should be paying people like you. You'll eat up and regurgitate any and all b.s. that is fed to you. AJ fans are approaching Pac-tard levels of idiocy.

So why did wilder turn down not attending the event when he knew whyte was coming?

[Laligalaliga]

Ortiz in December was if Chisora didn't sign, which he did. Ortiz has not had the oppurtunity to duck Whyte though so that is nonsense from the other guy.

Whyte made the right decision in fighting Parker over Ortiz as it was just as good name at the time (maybe not so anymore but that's because Whyte beat him).

Also the 2nd mandatory position was clearly not a credible incentive as Brazeale could be pushed back a whole year if Wilder fights Fury and a unfication bout with AJ. So Whyte could end up waiting 3 years for that to come to fruition which I'm sure we can both agree would be pointless.

Only wilder fans girls don't understand why whyte made the right decision not going that route. Wbc will make him wait till hez 33/34 yrs old.

The logic behind not fighting Ortiz earlier makes sense to me as Parker was a good "name" and each fighter has the right to make the decision to pursue a mando spot or not. Chisora over Ortiz is where I diverge. Ortiz is a better resume builder and opportunity to establish Whyte as a "player" at heavyweight. Chisora is a domestic fight that does nothing for Whyte from a ranking stand point. It strikes me as a stay busy fight until Joshua Whyte II can be announced.

That is where you get it wrong again. Whyte don't need to beat Ortiz to be an established player, rather it's the other way round.
Whyte is ranked higher than Ortiz in every organizations, so I don't know where that notion is coming from.

Ortiz needs white to make a statement, white dot need him as much. A victory over chisora is twice a victory over kauffman, am sure 90% will agree on this.

[Laligalaliga]

Possibly, I know I'd prefer to see him face off with Ortiz.

I think Hearns hoping to sell it to the casuals as 'unfinished business' type of fight to generate more money than they could with Ortiz as it's in the UK. Chisora isn't the worst opponent though he's top ten in some rankings and tough as old boots, also he looks to be in a lot better shape so I wouldn't be surprised with an upset, especially if Whyte hasn't improved his stamina from the Parker fight. Definitely potential for a good old slugfest if the first one is anything to go from.

I will observe closely to see how serious Ortiz is to fight whyte. He should be ring side. Anything other than that, I can't take him serious.
I will see him as a guy who wants to use the cheap talk media propaganda to get a title shot which is not gonna work.

Please Deontay Wilder and Frank Warren go to the U.K and introduce to the casual fans what a real heavyweight championship bout look like with Deontay Wilder vs Tyson Fury. Please stage it on April 13 of next year in Great Britain because the boxing public is getting tired of Joshua continuing to regurgitate these recycled fighters. I personally find AJ to be both repugnant and pathetic by neglecting and depriving the boxing fans of the fights they want to see. He wouldn't even so much as show how up at the Staples Center for crying out loud and we are supposed to take Eddie at his word that he is ready to sit down and negotiate for either Deontay Wilder or Tyson Fury? Please give me a freaking break!

Lolx..... This sounds like a crying baby begging For breast milk.

Whyte Brown was not an eliminator. I recall the WBC clarified the entire eliminator situation and told Whyte he had to fight Ortiz. Further, Ortiz signed to fight Kaufmann after Whyte moved forward with Chisora. He rightfully didn't sit around and wait to play second fiddle to Chisora. If Whyte Hearn wanted the fight, they could have sent a contract. They didn't.

From a competitive standpoint, there was zero reason for Whyte to fight Chisora over Ortiz.

That's from your point alone. The British fans, public and casuals are 100% into this fight cos there is scores to settle btw them once and for all.
Ortiz should improve his market value other wise he will find it difficult to land any top 10 fighter except wilder his pay master.
He should do himself a favor to be at whyte /chisora ringside to show the UK fans how serious he is. Anything shot of that, hez just joking and playing with the media.
