Comments Thread For: Luis Ortiz Hopes To Fight Dillian Whyte or Alexander Povetkin Next

[Rodbox]

And Ortiz has said he'll take that fight and even travel to the UK if necessary.

Let's see what happens now.

Whyte has called out Ortiz as a back up if the Povetkin fight doesn’t happen he should be applauded to arrange such a decent back up

Nice to see Dillian awake again...

The Povetkin fight won't happen by February. So I'm assuming he was serious about making this fight after the call out.

everything you said is right but gbp has definitely sent some fighters too fight on pbc I think Diaz is one who fought grj on a pbc show and Oscar was there

Jo Jo was GRJ's mandatory challenger. At least Oscar was there for that one! Lol!

Why would Whyte fight Ortiz in February when he could fight Povetkin a week later in March it makes no sense

Shyte said he wants Ortiz in February and Povetkin in April or May.

Those were his own words.

Oh dear Mr agenda believes what he thinks but it’s very clear Whyte either fights Povetkin or Ortiz next not both within a month of each other pmsl 🤣

I'm not telling you what I think or believe. I'm telling you what Shyte actually said.

Ortiz realizes that Haymon gave Jacobs the green light to fight GGG on HBO! Haymon gave the green light for Ruiz to fight Joshua twice on DAZN! Haymon gave the green light for Dervy to fight Jacobs on DAZN! Haymon gave the green light for Dervy to fight GGG on DAZN! Haymon gave the green light for Wilder vs. Fury on ESPN! Haymon gave the green light for GRJ to fight Haney on DAZN! Haymon gave the green light for Porter to fight Crawford on ESPN! Now you tell me when Hearn gave the green light for one of his MatchRoom fighters to fight on PBC? Then tell me when GBP gave the green light to fight on a PBC card on FOX or SHO? I would say Haymon is due for a favor in return? What say you?

Ruiz had basically just signed to him if he won both fights Al would have complete control of the heavyweight division it wasn't a risk in the slightest it'd be a masterstroke if successful.
Derevyanchenko "risked" his 0 against another PBC guy in Jacobs and for a belt so Al benefits either way, again for a belt against GGG and softens him up for his actual marquee name Charlo.
Wilder irrelevant because it was a joint promotion.

GRJ and Porter hasn't happened and both guys are risking nothing but if they win will have a belt and in the case of porter just like with Ruiz, PBC will have complete control of a division you starting to notice a trend here? he "risks" all but irrelevant guys and always for a belt and they're never his marquee names, until Haymon risks an actual worth while marquee name/belts he's deserving of no "favours" as you put it.

Who "risks" their guys more than him? Other platforms are making big dollars, with Al Haymon guys in the main events! DAZN made money, ESPN made money, HBO made money! Would it be wrong for Al to ask for Crawford on FOX, or Andrade on SHO? Time for people to "cross the street" to PBC! Enjoy Texieira vs. Castano on DAZN! Thanks Al Haymon!
