Eddie Hearn's Final Offer 7+Mil To Luis Ortiz Rejected, Fight Officially Off!!

[Jax teller]

if the report is true...this is smart for luis ortiz

he will do a ppv rematch with wilder in 2019....thats smart as he will likely come around that 7 mil figure for that fight.....

since many here(well the aj fanboys)think that wilder is easier pickings and ripe to be taken...and that ortiz "had him" in the last one......then ortiz can take that belt and make even more money for an AJ fight

if he loses to AJ hes likely done and no longer a viable opponent to face wilder again..

uk fanboys insist wilder is easier to beat and had wilder near defeat....so its a two birds more money scenario...hes likely to see similar money in a wilder ppv rematch.....if he loses to aj he wont see that wilder fight again anyway...he beats wilder than he sees more than what he would have made in june vs AJ later when hes holding a wbc strap to bring with him

WTAF?!

You think Ortiz is gonna get as much as Fury did on a supposed 50-50 split with Wilder in a PPV fight between two undefeated 'Champions' (Lineal & WBC as it was marketed).

The already defeated Ortiz will be lucky to get a 25% split and the fight would have to be so much bigger than the higher profile the original Fury bout. Man the guy cant even sell a fight like Fury who also bought a lot of his own fans.

Your figures are trash and your bias is unbeleivable.

You're pathetic............

It also shows us that Wilder is not looking to fight AJ anytime soon.

Two poosays wrapped in one

[Toffee]

These idiots that said he should have taken 5 million need to pay attention. You guys don't understand how money works. He just got offered 7+.

Ah, the Wilder argument. No-one claiming Ortiz is a duck for rejecting $5m is saying you don't negotiate for the best price.

They're saying it's not a lowball offer that you walk away from.

People celebrate Wilder rejecting $100m because he got offered less before. "Look, Wilder's winning". He's not, he's fighting for substantially less sums of money than he could be because he never accepts the offer.

If Ortiz doesn't fight Joshua then he simply doesn't want the fight. The money is there and is credible.

It's time boxing fans turned on the corrupt arseholes ruining the sport.

And get behind the one fighter who is unifying belts and trying to get big fights made.

Could our American cousins ever handle supporting a British fighter?

Now, Ortiz rejecting 7m is just suspicious to me. I knew he was worth more than 5 and it seems even Hearn agrees on that. Passing 7m + is hard to wrap my head around when we're taking about Ortiz here. I think other "factors" came into play.

Yes, Al Haymon blocking the fight.

Ortiz should just accept, collect the money and bounce into Latin America somewhere to avoid any chance of being sued by Al Haymon etc.

Another PBC guy running from a fight to make less where he is.... not sure what kind of hold Al Haymon has on these guys but it seems like he's got them by the balls.

Can't wait for the Wilder rematch where he makes 3 million and they try to sell it as a PPV and it flops.

my figures are trash?

yet you are the ones who sided with a guy that said wilder was worth 12.5 million and john skipper told him to stay home and offered him more than double 15 million lololol

you do realize that andy ruiz is in negotiations with team Joshua and that hes a pbc guy right?

its likely that Ortiz was promised a wilder rematch that will likely be nearly as lucrative as an AJ fight

[Curt Henning]

Yes, Al Haymon blocking the fight.

if haymon is "blocking the fight" its because he is gonna do wilder/Ortiz on ppv next.....which will be inhouse so he can pay Ortiz fairly well where hed make probably around the same figure he would have made for AJ......its an inhouse fight and helps give wilders next fight a bit of luster....which is sensible

andy ruiz is in negotiations with AJ and hes a haymon guy

[Boksfan]

Fock Ortiz! Focking coward piece of shyt from Cuba!
