    My man, if you are an Ortiz fan, don't worry. He's in the best hape of his life it looks like. If he can't beat Wilder now, he was just never meant to.

    I posted in another thread how I feel this match is more leveled out than their first fight. I'm not sure if that favors Ortiz however. Either way, it should be a great fight because Wilder won't have the flu (weighing only 216lbs) and Ortiz will be in the best shape of his life.

      same question was asked before the 1st fight

      https://www.boxingscene.com › luis-ortiz-dismisses-rumors-hand-injury-ah...

      His left hand, on which Ortiz didn’t wear a glove during the press conference, has a large, hard bump on the top of it. The lump could’ve come from calcium deposits and Ortiz insisted it doesn’t cause him any pain.

      “It’s nothing,” Ortiz said. “It’s all good.”

      In an effort to prove what he was saying, Ortiz pounded the protrusion on the top of his left hand with the bottom of his right fist five straight times.

      Luis DeCubas Jr., an adviser to Ortiz, explained that the powerful southpaw has long had that bump on his left hand.

          Strange place for that bump.
          But he's had it for 20 years, so of no importance.

            It looks like a big azz cyst
            Or one of those balls of fat accumulation
            I knew someone who had something like that on their wrist , it came and went , but never any pain

              He received a visit from the "fixers" a few nights ago. He won't mention the injury until after his loss and it will provide the excuse for the trilogy fight.

                He has a broken bone in there. I popped something back in the day in the same location or very close to it. Messing around working at Burger King, punched a cardboard box and it just popped back by the wrist. A small bone must have cracked because a knot popped up that stuck around for about 3 months or so. If I touched it, the pain was massive, so I left it alone.

                On a side note, Ortiz looks like he's 58 yrs old.

                  OK. Thanks. I thought as per above poster it was a fatty cyst. They can actually be hard. Seems meaningless as he's had it for 20 years they said.
                  He actually does look old there, not quite that old.

                    Honestly speaking , why would there be a need for a trilogy
                    Not like he won the first fight

                    And I highly doubt it’s a broken bone
                    Especially the fact he’s had it there for so long , would lead me to believe it’s a cyst
                    No pain just annoying as fugh
