Oscar rolling out the excuses already

[Spicoli]

Luis Ortiz added to card vs everyones trial horse Derric Rossy. Three weeks after turning 39.

Piss or get off the pot seems more and more applicable to Ortiz.

Recently in the heavyweights you have to hope the "Where have they dug that opponent up from ?" ​Is not soon accompanied by corner men with spades

I'm wondering if Ortiz is breaking a record for -Interim stand still..maybe soon..champion- now. We all know the shiny trinkets and belts might as well fall out of gumball machines but watching "just glad to be considered" Fres Oquendo and Shannon Briggs get to it before arguably one of the more realistic threats is a joke.

Yeah the WBA are a joke for sanctioning that fight as for a title. Maybe an eliminator. Old Fres had his nice little court mandated shot so nothing they could do I suppose. Wlad/ Joshua should have been for the vacant title and Briggs/ Oquendo should have been for the interim at most. Hopefully the mess gets cleaned up by the end of the year.

Thought Fres really did watch it tick away vs Chagaev and he's riding a bit of the charity train off injury. Same Briggs who has legitimately beat one top 10 fighter. Tremendous self marketer though and a monster in the vitamin aisle. Where are all of the 'next' American heavyweights ffs.
