Rumor: Usyk Vs Ortiz is on!!!

[Cutthroat]

Breidas is a faster puncher and fights better on the inside then Ortiz. Bellew was not beating Usyk..he isn't going to let bigger punchers get positioning on him. Usyk plays to his opponents weaknesses he will exploit Ortiz who has trouble hurting moving targets.

Briedis is coming off a fight he probably should've lost and didn't look too great against Mike Perez either. Ortiz is a better boxer than him in every way possible. Ortiz either schools or knocks out the level of opponents Briedis struggles with.

Ortiz is probably the most complete guy at HW, he has deadly hooks and uppercuts inside which he's KO'd opponents with like Jennings.

You're sorely mistaken if you think he's comparable to a 24 year old Gassiev who had just 25 amateur fights and 0 international experience. Ortiz is not going to get neutralized like he did, he's basically a MUCH better version of Briedis.

Usyk taking on Ortiz in his 1st fight won't happen. No way. Ortiz is to be avoided at all costs.

[Earl-Hickey]

Joyce is one of the slowest guys in the division though, and at the stage he fought Usyk, he'd have lost to any top 30 HW.

Usyk has actually struggled with counter punchers and some of the best shots I've seen him hit with were by counters. Look at Bellew-Briedis, Bellew was beating him and Briedis nearly pulled off the upset.

Ortiz isn't some 1 dimensional, undersized guy like Gassiev either, he's a gifted boxer puncher, from the southpaw stance no less.

Briedis is coming off a fight he probably should've lost and didn't look too great against Mike Perez either. Ortiz is a better boxer than him in every way possible. Ortiz either schools or knocks out the level of opponents Briedis struggles with.

Bredis gets hilariously overrated for knocking out pudding charr

Would be a genuinely fascinating fight. I'd be surprised if Usyk's team went for it though.

But "rumours online" means someone posted it somewhere, then someone else started a thread somewhere.

The rumours this thread is based on are as credible as if this thread was started without any such rumours.
