Comments Thread For: Joshua Trainer: If Ortiz Had Been 28 - He Would Have Beat Wilder!

Why would you put Fury on Wilder’s resume?

At the very very best, it was a lucky draw

Because he fought him. Why wouldn't I? Isn't a resume a track record of the work experience?

Sure, it’s a valid definition

But I guess it’s important to differentiate those who use resume as a list of ‘wins’ as a tool of comparison between fighters, and those like yourself who use resume simply as a list of who they’ve fought

The difference being a resume usually highlights the positive aspects, not the negative ones like losses and draws

And had he fought Wilder he would have been more brutally knocked out and much quicker.

But wilder was too scared to fight him ... so a big no

But draws aren't negative. And I've been on this site and talked to enough boxing fans in my 43 years to know that resume refers to the full body of work. A fighter who gives a good account of himself in a loss (JMM for example) shouldn't have it relegated to nothing because of an unfavorable result. Wilder may have gotten outboxed in a draw, but he legitimately put Fury to sleep. People like to forget that part.

I think Ortiz would take him if he were even as young as 48.

Merry Christmas, Angel Fernandez

Very good post man. Can you please tell us, if Ruiz was Wilders height and weight could he have beaten AJ again? You sound more like a fortune teller than a boxing trainer!

Cheers.

Sure. If Klit and Povetkin were 28, they'd probably beat you too.

AJ is not a masterclass boxer although he is good. Masterclass boxers are boxers like Mumhammad Ali, Lomachenko, Floyd Mayweather, etc. Not boxers like Anthony Joshua.

But he just showed us he can if he wants to.

If Ortiz wasn’t having health issues he wins regardless of age last year ,fast forward to now we aren’t going to see any version of Ortiz defeat a fighter and win a title of any importance . One thing I know about Wilder always seems to pick fighters when they’re vulnerable . His next fights going to be a reality check for most when he losses badly to a prime guy who’s prepared this time.

alot of variables here, not just the age factor.
