"King Kong Ain't Got Nothin on De. . .ontay" Wilder vs Ortiz 3/3 SHOWTIME Fight Thread

[GunRanger]

A lot of shots to the back of the head

Great fight. Hopefully Wilder vs. AJ/Parker is next.

Hearn said AJ is fighting Big Baby next.

 

[reservoirdogs]

Thar was a great fukking fight

Can’t wait AJ vs Wilder even though it’s likely a year

Still picking AJ but Wilder proved to be better than I thought simply because his chin is sigbificantly better than I thought.

I dont know if you're joking or not .. . Wlad has an ATG Jab, does ortiz?. If you think his whole run was built off just clinching and missing then i dont know what to say. This would be to say you believe Wilders run is built purely off windmilling

How does his atg jab work vs someone his size

As silly as sounds, That statement alone shows the pure bytch that lies within wlad....

missed the fight. So wilder knocked him out? Good win for the boy

 

[patscorpio]

damn shame Lennox showing Deontay more love than Foreman, Tyson, and Holyfield. SMH
AAs who are fameous have that crab mentality sometime. No love.
Yet Deontay shows love to all his fellow AA fighters.

Deontay was just out here saying he was better than Mike Tyson recently ..what do you expect Tyson to say to him

I would expect him to say, that is how Deontay is supposed to think. he is supposed to think he is the greatest.
That said Mike started it first hating on Deontay, not the otherway around.

Dudes in here acting like Joshua fought a prime Wlad and not a 50 yr old one

I think it’s beneficial for all parties if Wilder vs AJ is next. I’m sure Hearn would like to wait, but I don’t think heavyweights have the luxury of letting a fight “marinate.” All it takes is a nygga catching you and that’s it.

Also, although I think they are the two best heavyweights, I don’t view these guys as unbeatable at all. What I mean by that is some sort of upset would not surprise me at all on their road to building up the fight. They just need to make it happen.

 

[H.I.M.]

Better Jab

Correct.

Throws a better variety of punches

False.

Better Footwork

Hell nah

Better Defense

Nope.

Was able to control distance better

Correct.

the only thing Ortiz really has over Wlad is the fact Ortiz had a better chin...and even then Wlad did face some punchers and only getting ko'ed 3 times in 69 pro fights...including a damn near 13 year gap between the 2nd and 3rd KO losses with who he faced is not bad at all

Ortiz is a FAR superior counter puncher...better uppercut, better body puncher...Wlad has the better left hook,, straight right and 1-2.

Overall, i'd give say Ortiz has slightly a better skillset & fundamentals than Wlad.

Couldn't see Ortiz getting 12-0'd by anybody at Heavy.

This version of Ortiz is definitely better than the version of Wlad that Joshua beat.
