Why does Wilder get a pass for the Ortiz rematch?

[Curt Henning]

LOL@the wilder haters

one day they'll say "wilder got lucky. the bell saved him. plus the extra time he was allotted to recover. they cheated ortiz"...ive even heard one guys suggest wilder was "out on his feet" with no real clue as to what that phrase really means...

then the next day they'll say "why is wilder rematching that bum whos in the top 5"?

The first fight was a great action fight.

However, since the first fight Ortiz has looked like chit and he was fat af a couple of months ago. The rematch will be an early KO for Wilder. I would have preferred to see him fight Kownacki.

Windmill will be ducking Kownacki and will be ducking Ruiz. Instead he will fight grandpa, then 5 fights with another cunctator Fury or 3 fights with broken Joshua.

Because he tried to rematch Tyson Fury immediately but the Gypsy King ran away to fight bums on Top Rank cards.

Wallin is a 28 year old 6'6 fast southpaw , Ortiz is almost a 50 year old looking slower and slower every time we see him. Nothing suggests he's better then Wallin who is fighting a better Fury then Wilder did and I bet he looks far better on Saturdays fight.

Wallins last opponent was a 40 year old that failed his physical. Stop selling Wallin I’m not buying. The mans a bum and you know it. People talk about Wilders opponents and you give Fury a pass. Who, in your own words, is levels above Wilder. Truth is if you support a fighter you’ll go out of your way to support his decisions. And vice versa if you dislike a fighter.

FFS yea Wilder will probably KO the old man earlier, but I enjoyed the first fight and Ortiz was close to the upset. If its even half as decent it'll be a good fight. Hopefully undercard isnt trash

Because Ortiz completely outclassed Wilder, won every second of the fight and almost stopped him.

He just got hit with two punches. If he doesn’t get hit with those two shots, he wins.

A lot of mfers wasnt saying what OP is saying after the fight. Hence a rematch.

Im not a big fan of it, but I see the reasoning of running it back cuz Ortiz did have Wilder in superbad shape that one round & seemed like he was near a W.

I dont think a "pass" is needed here. Fury needs passes for his last fight + the one this weekend more than any tip top HW needs a pass for any recent fight. The Andy fight woulda been getting a pass worthy if not for the late notice angle to the fight which made it ok.

Its just like if Fury wasnt resurrected and didnt get up. They would be clamoring for that rematch. This isnt the perfect fight, but could be a lot worse

anyone he fights outside of aj, fury, and ruiz will be criticized... its not a fight a I care for but its life and its no use in crying, meanwhile look who fury is fighting
