AJ wanting Luis Ortiz if the Wilder fight can't be made. Is this true?

[DaaamnSon]

That's a great interview with Joshua.

[Zaryu]

you mean he wouldn't be a 49 year old who is one blood pressure pill away from a stroke?

Hahahaha, yes pretty much.

[BendOver]

In the interview he said if he can't get Wilder or Fury then Ortiz, Miller and Whyte are his next options. Let's be honest of those 3 Ortiz is the least likely.

Whyte is the biggest fight of those 3 from a financial perspective, Miller and Ortiz can't fill an arena by themselves while Whyte is a proven PPV fighter now.

Miller is likely next because of his deal with Matchroom and keeping it in house is the more prudent choice and then finally we have Ortiz, he beats him Joshua get's accused of beating an old man like Wilder did, he's probably the least financially lucrative option as at least Miller with his mouth can help promote a fight, Ortiz doesn't even speak English.

Are you aj's accounting? If aj is filling the stadium it doesn't matter who the opponent is. There's not going to be any seats available anyway. And what is the problem with Ortiz not speaking English? Is going to be a fight not a hand signs contest. A good translator would do.

I's much rather see AJ vs Ortiz than a redux with Whyte.
I think most fans would also, despite strange claims to the contrary.

I would just love to see that fight happen. Hopefully, the rumors that have been circulating are true.
