Why do British fans excuse Whyte’s last fight but rag on Ortiz for Hammer?

[uppercut510]

they will blast anything a threat to their fighter does but go silent or defend things their fighters do, its just how loyal they are.

Wach is a much better and tougher guy then Hammer, and proven, Wach at least was the Polish national champion ,I don't even know what background Hammer has ...stop. Ha

Also Ortiz is suppose to be the boogeyman isn't he ? Hammer had him bloodied up and Hammer is not a top 50 fighter let alone what should be a easy fight for Ortiz. That fight showed Ortiz was on the decline .

In shape Whyte could stop Wach ,i even said the fight would go 12 .

They don't mention that Povetkin had about the amount of success with Hammer, either.....

[Chrismart]

Was Ortiz Vs Hammer ever that much of a talking point? I honestly can't remember.

Whyte was treating this as a comeback fight, it wasn’t seen as a main fight in the same way Ortiz actually considered Hammer. For that reason I don’t really have a problem with Whyte easing to a comfortable win without forcing a distinctive knockout.

I would say I never the Ortiz fight but I have seen him in a number of others, Skott and Dave Allen stand out - where he looked very very poor. Infect I barely remember Ortiz looking like a true top class heavyweight and I think the true answer is that Hammer is probably his biggest win. I’m not even sure who his biggest win with a KO would be against - but someone well outside the top20. For all his plaudits , he hasn’t proven he is anywhere near the top of the division with his results.

Lol.....you come here to make up sheet......
Which Britt's?

[LacedUp]

ehm what?

I saw myself and many other brits say how terrible Whyte looked. Fact is he took the fight on two weeks notice.

That doesn't excuse that he looked terrible.

[D4thincarnation]

Because he took the fight with less that two weeks notice.

I know how this is gonna go. Something something... excuses about Whyte's conditioning & short notice.

Despite the fact that Whyte wasn't banned from the gym and doing road work. Also Wach was on short notice too.

Whyte's garbage.
