Does Ortiz have a shot at the upset?

[Ray*]

Of course he does, this is the HW division.

It's funny because I feel this time that Wilder needs to get him out earlier.
I see Ortiz training for a late stoppage which I think is a mistake

I think Wilder has the advantage either way. I think he can stop Ortiz with one shot, while Luis needs to overwhelm him. Both men have solid chins. But the longer the fight goes, regardless of Ortiz’s conditioning, the more his chances grow dimmer.

He does, he's a skilled southpaw with big power himself. But Wilder is just a freak of nature imo massive puncher, great stamina, fast hands. I wouldnt be shocked if ortiz gets the W but Wilder should take this. He's dangerous at any point of the fight.

This smells like Holyfield vs Qawi II.

A balanced first fight, a wipeout in the second. I'll go with Wilder within four rounds.

Wilder is a specimen. I remember noting a few years ago how he’s just all fast-twitch muscle. His athleticism allows him that unorthodox style. Watching him in slow motion you get to appreciate how fast his reaction time is. And 6’7”? Shiiit...

Exactly! People rag on how sloppy he looks and there's alot of truth to it. But he can get away with it because of his god given attributes, including his tall frame

He’s like a gigantic Prince Nazeem. Lol Only rare boxers can fight like that. And, as with Nazeem, it’ll take a high-caliber fighter with textbook skills to overcome the freak, unorthodox ability. Ortiz looked like he might’ve been that guy, more or less.

my guess is that he's about 45 years old. could be 50.


again there's no reason whatsoever for yoel romero to call the guy out for being older than he is. this keeps happening. there have been rumors about his age for years. he's probably older than you think he is. and 45-46 is a hell of a lot more significant than 39-40.


this is a trash pay per view. FFS look at the undercard. nobody seems to be defending the pay per view, just saying the first fight was exciting [so is a fight in a bar,] and completely ignoring the undercard.

What about the UC? The Co-main is trash, definitely wouldn't call Figueora/Ceja or Nery/Rodriguez trash.

Okay, so now he is 45 years old. You originally responded to my post saying he is 50 years old now.....Alrighty then.

Thats the thing I think he knows that and he bides his time looking for that one punch.

I think Wilder took him for granted last time but this time will look to finish him early
