    Has Luis Ortiz got one more, last great run in him?

    Obviously Ortiz is at the age where its hard to see him still competing in say 3 years from now

    But can he summon up one more, last great run before he rides off into the sunset.

    Absolutely.

    He could beat Wallin, Whyte, Ruiz and Povetkin. Those would all be really good wins.

    He will be outclassed by the best though Joshua, Fury and obviously Wilder.

      This isn’t exactly true ,Wilder has only won a few rounds in two fights vs Ortiz coming off multiple losses himself in that fight at present ? It isn’t written in stone Wilder gets by a decent southpaw puncher at this point . In fact we don’t know if Wilder gets back at all . A guy he’s able to outbox is better suited for him even in two loss stoppages because Wilder is not going to be the same guy either .

      I’d say yes he has one more only because he’s a dominant fighter but it’s a big if ...if he fights legit guys who we rarely seen so far .

      Wallin a southpaw standing 6”5 plus is not an easy fight nor Ruiz who would out work him past mid rounds . You can assume Ortiz wins but this is what the forums been doing when he has the weakest resume and then you guys still put Wilder as a top 3 when there are size boxers out there Who won’t give rnds away as easily as Wilder .

            When was his first great run? Both amateur and pro?

              He could fight for and win the "REGULAR" WBA title easily

                As others have said... I’m not sure Ortiz ever had a first great run. When and against whom was it ?

                  Not a chance, he never had a good first run.
                  He will probably lose if he fights the top guys, I would like to see him fight Ruiz, both could use a win to get back in title contention.
