Comments Thread For: Hearn: If Luis Ortiz Wants Joshua Next - He Can Have It Next!

[DannYankee]

Can anybody contact Ortiz directly? All there is online is his sketchy management people. This seems life changing and beyond ****** for him to turn down, even if it's a retirement package fight. It's a pretty damn good considering he got paid 500k to fight Wilder. Turning down this fight is just horrible for him unless he got offered something better not to take it.

Pay the man you tit, you'll have more subscribers.
Quality over quantity always win, but you want to stomp on your fights!lol.

Tired of getting jerked from good fights, because promoters want to make 400 mil a year instead of say 250..greed. That's my point. Enough is never enough and the fan pays for it. Unc Bob giving us the HW 👑 Fury fighting some pork chop, Wilder fighting one of the security guards from the Staples center, and AJ is fighting Tito off the movie Turbo.

I want quality fights. These hacks need to stop playing the fans.

7 million is more than good enough. If you want to give a self righteous speech about people being greedy maybe it should be directed at the guy turning down 7 mil when he’s taken title fights for 500k

Yeah he can have Joshua next... but let me offer him peanuts and say he ducking when he defines... puzzy ass brits

7 mil is peanuts?

Reminds me of the Pete Quillen saga a few years ago - he was probably paid money not to fight Golovkin and he defended how he was making the right decision and how he'd be worth 10s of millions. How'd that work out for him - *****!! Got ko'd by Jacobs in one and now he's a post-prime contender/gatekeeper.

Why can't people ever learn a bird in the hand is worth a thousand in the sky

He doesn't speak English. His manager runs his social media accounts. His promoter, manager or trainer are always the ones to speak for him in public.

I honestly wouldn't be surprised if he didn't even know that an AJ fight had ever been offered, let alone the size of the offer.

Hearn, are you sure Ortiz is old enough now? If so, go ahead and take the fight. He’s been beaten by Wilder anyway. He less risk now. Take the fight.

"Something is rotten in the state of Denmark". These so called offers of 6 and 7 million sound awfully strange. Why would anyone in the camp of Ortiz turn this down? Doesn't make sense. Wonder if there isn't something more to the story!

1 billion dollars...................or its a lowball offer.

He is meant to be fighting Wilder in a rematch, that's the plan mapped out for him. Him getting beat by Joshua derails Wilder's plans. It was never about the money, his own manager said it.

He tried to defend "Dade promotions" for turning down 7m dollars last week, saying they wire Ortiz money whenever he needs it.
