Comments Thread For: Wilder: Luis Ortiz is Avoided By Many - I Don't Avoid People!

[Jayallday9]

Actually Ortiz was avoided up until Wilder stopped him. He was called a high risk low reward heavyweight version of Rigo. Good boxing skills for a big man. Still not worth PPV though

The whole 5 week replacement wasnt exactly someone who just came off the couch. Ruiz had just been in a training camp and was coming off a win where he had not taken any damage and stopped his opponent. Ruiz was still in fighting "shape" and is a good fighter (I think he beat Parker). You act like Ruiz was some chump off the street or something, kid. As for his "excuse" about fighting in Europe...you act like the UK wasnt responsible for his massive following. I'm not a huge fan of AJ but dont act like Wilder had this huge following in the U.S. Hell, he's only getting popularity recently. As for the 50 mill offer, everyone is still waiting to see that contract AND not the email. Nice try though kid.

Ruiz was meant to showcase Joshua's talent. That's why it's still being marketed as a massive upset. No one's falling for your garbage.

You don't draw contracts up when the other side openly ducks er turns down the payday. Hearn said the money was legit and then said that Joshua wanted to fight at home even though he would make less money there. You'd make a contract for that? Guess you're ****** then (no one blames you).

His following in the UK drew less in PPV with Parker than Wilder did at home with Fury, because Joshua has to sell 4X the tickets Wilder does, since UK boxing fans (very intelligently) refuse to pay $74.99 or more for a fight. Wilder and Joshua selling a 500K-600K event in the US is going to generate more than Joshua would with anyone else overseas, and Wilder proved that in his PPV debut. I guess I should call you "kid" or some other childish BS, but I can just let facts talk. Joshua ducked a $50M fight after he said he'd sign immediately for one lol

Cue the drugged up doper Whyte groupies. Who believe their clown hero with his fake tainted wins, and who was too chickensh** to fight an eliminator, was owed something. He owes Rivas an apology. He owes Chisora for 2 BS wins while he was PED’d up.

Took 100 articles but the moron finally mentioned his opponent.

This is a lie. When someone offers you any amount you don't counter offer with 24 hour deadlines and then cancel the meetings to go through the FAKE offers.I say fake because no one cancels meetings if they are serious about that offer they put on social media and had wilder of all people claim he had the 50 million, get out of here .Ha

Finkel also would not supply any kind of documents regarding the offer which was found to be a BT sports funds ,we know this because Frank Warren admitted it so that kills any possible Wilder /AJ fight there . All a set up and you guys fall for it.

He doesn't like the idea of having his biggest fight before a watered down crowd of British fans.

"AJ asked me how many British fans could get tickets if the fight was in America and could get over and I said about 6,000 and that's after we have done 250,000 in three fights and it doesn't seem right," Hearn said.

"He's keen to do the fight in the U.K. and from Rob's point of view it's an advantage. If it's in September it gives us the ability to go outside and we would have to consider Cardiff [the Principality Stadium], Wembley, the Olympic Stadium, Twickenham and Old Trafford. AJ wants it in London preferably."

No one is avoiding Luis Ortiz. Luis Ortiz is an old man and no one wants to knock out an old man. You get zero credit for fighting an old man.

[Tecnoworld]

Wilder, would you please give me a chance as well? I'll be happy with 500k and I'll go to sleep as soon as you move towards me...��

120 mill for 4 or 100 mill for 3 fights and you declined. Thats the biggest avoidance Ive ever seen.

You really think he was scared of the chinny stiff AJ cash cow, and instead fought #1 ranked Tyson Fury and Ortiz .

***** Whyte avoided him. And he avoided AJ and Parker. Facts.
