    How pissed off do you think Luis Ortiz is?

    His team told Hearn he couldn’t take the Joshua fight because he was being lined up for a Wilder matchup.

    It seems to me like he expected there wouldn’t be enough time to turnaround after a Joshua fight to take the Wilder shot he already agreed too.

    Now it’s clear he could have done both.

    I bet he’s livid.

    Or he is thankful to have had time to properly flush his system of whatever he was on that prevented him from accepting Joshua's offer.

    maybe...

    either way it is unlikely he would have beaten Joshua and gotten the Wilder fight after that.

      Total disgrace, the PBC totally screwed him over and made his manager the scapegoat, but we know whats what there. Al Haymon is Pro business, not pro Boxers or pro anything else. Just business. He cost Luis Ortiz a hell of alot.

        It all depends, maybe he too was dirty. I mean he was vocal when Miller had a signed contract with Joshua. He was on social media and said “If the Miller fight falls through” etc
        So maybe he was indeed dirty, because once Miller was found dirty and out Ortiz was silent worse than a churches mouse. I was expecting him to be vocal at that point in time.

        I mean, you had some LDBC retard on YouTube who claimed he was close to Team Ortiz and that they want the fight etc and that Hearn was lying etc, then everything came out that Hearn was indeed telling the truth about offering Ortiz the Fight. Then that turned into a “Lowball” offer but these idiots.

        I actually think Ortiz would have won that fight, not sure why they were offering Ortiz the fight in the first place, he had a total different style to what Joshua had trained for. Offering him and Ruiz that fight was suicidal IMHO. They should have fought a total bum when Miller got caught.

              Wilder was never going to fight AJ in the Spring anyway. that's why I had that caveat in there. Besides wilder -AJ (assuming he wins) is still a big payday)

                  It sounded like his team/promoter was f#cking him more than he should be upset with anyone else.

                  His manager flip flopped like a mofo when the promoter said Eddie was lowballing him/them & numbers got brought up.

                  Sounded to me like the promoter wanted more money & was playing both sides against each other cuz he gets paid first & then he decides how much of that to Ortiz.

                  So there was never gonna be two fights in play. Either he woulda beaten AJ & been fighting AJ again not Wilder or he loses to AJ & Wilder don't need to fight him no more cuz he took an L & wont be ranked the same & wont be of the same value.
