Anybody Here Picking Ortiz To Upset?

Maybe Ortiz isn’t a top heavyweight among the current crop anymore (we’ll see tonight), but he was two years ago. It could also be that Luis, like a lot of athletes, rises to the level of his competition. Again, we’ll see tonight. Wilder will almost certainly be Ortiz’s career barometer. Even in losing, people may look back and say he gave a good account of himself.

I do think Ortiz is the type of lower his level according to his opposition. Not that uncommon with Cuban fighters really, some of them just do enough. Not just Cuban’s of course. Fury is the same.

I certainly expect a better Ortiz than his previous fights but still.

To me, in his last few fights it didn’t just seem like he under performed, it looked like an old fighter in there. Hopefully i’m wrong and we get a good fight.

Just going on those latest performances and how old he looked, he looks like he might be too faded to compete at this level now.

I still think he’ll be dangerous for 4 rounds, but he can’t change gears after that and will fade.
