Is it me or does Ortiz look in better shape for this fight?

    wilder is focused...trust me...he knows where his bread is buttered....he isnt a celebrity without being relevant in the fight game.....he is working on raising his profile...but i believe he knows where and how he makes his money and people are coming to try and stop it every time out...hes focused.....

    wilder is actually a really humble guy from very humble beginnings....but he knows how to turn on the other side when in public and in front of cameras

      Uhm... he's 40 years old. He's not in better shape.

        Yeah, some of these guys turn on their public persona when in front of the cameras. It’s easy to forget this sometimes. It’s all about selling themselves and upping their marketability.

          You’d be surprised. Ortiz may have been younger in the first fight, but it’s possible he’s in better shape now. He might not be just as quick, but he might be better in other areas, like conditioning.

              I'm gonna bet the house on "not a chance in hell". He's older, and looked like dog poop against Christian Hammer.

                  Lol You may be right. But I’ll tell you this, I’m a lot older than Ortiz, and I’m in better shape now that I have been in years. And I’m not alone. This isn’t like the old days where a forty year old athlete is old as dirt. Like I said, you might be surprised.

                    Most likely he will still get KOed by punch he won't see. But wouldn't bet much on it, given close last fight.

                      Only thing is at ortizs age he could leave it all in the gym and appear flat on fight night.
