Wilder weighs in only 214 lb. Very light for such a tall fighter.
Ortiz looks deadly serious.
I thought Wilder would win this easy. Maybe it will be a closer fight.

Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
Imo wilder is going in with the same mindset as the 1st Stiverne fight. He knows he can't box with a guy with Ortiz' skills so he has to use his superior speed and movement.
Ive jus watched an old interview with wilder where he was saying you have to beat Ortiz by moving and not standing with him. Judging by wilders weight it's obvious this is what he's going to do. He also mentioned the Scott fight and Ortiz inability to cut off the ring. That was two years ago too.
Ortiz was a little heavy and I can see him struggling to close the distance in this fight, However I'm gonna go for the underdog to pull off the upset. And the new....
Prediction: Wilder will win by KO/TKO in the 7th to 9th round.
Ortiz is too old, too slow, is shorter with a shorter reach, and is an easy target because he doesn't have good footwork any more. Besides, Haymon's officials including the referee will be there to help Wilder if needed. I wouldn't be surprised if there's a too-quick stoppage in favor of the American.
Wilder at 214 shows he wants to use a lot of movement, that's his best option. Can Ortiz cut off the ring?
They live, We sleep
It’s crazy that he is only 214. He is very tall and that is very light for that weight. He is probably about the weight of some cruiserweights. I still think he wins pretty easily. He will use his jab and Ortiz won’t throw much and Wilder will stop him in the later rounds.
I don't know guys, i think Ortiz can pull this off. He steps in and out great, and just like that right hand down the middle is dangerous for a southpaw, that left down the middle is dangerous for an orthodox fighter. IF he steps out on a wild right from Deontay, he can catch him with straight left, right hook combos all night. And it may be sneaky, but the Kong got power.
