I'll bet that when Wilder stops him, you'll say Ortiz was old.
Well he is old? He's also been out the ring for nearly a year and struggled last time out going the distance against a British journeyman.
Do I have to pretend that this would be an amazing win for Wilder even though I've been saying for months that Ortiz isn't a hard fight for either Joshua or Wilder and is clearly overrated? Wilder fans are getting tiresome with the premptive defense of wins he doesn't even have yet.
Why not just focus on who you think will win rather than what you think people will be saying after the fight? Wilder doesn't exactly get a hard time, he fought 30+ bums before having a real fight, he got a VERY easy ride to the top, but you'd think he was so hard done by reading this thread.
Wilder will win this fight, Ortiz usual inside uppercut counter wont work against a much longer and faster opponent and he's not quick enough to lead with the 1-2. He was getting hit with clean overhand rights from the white rhino so I wouldn't rule out a KO either. I'd be very surprised if Wilder isn't able to deal with Ortiz.
