Dillian Whyte ordered to face Luis Ortiz

[Ron Swanson]

Doubt Whyte fights him. Pulev is the easier route.

To be fair , it makes sense for him to fight Pulev. If he beats him , he’s guaranteed mandatory.
Whereas if he beats Ortiz, he’s still behind Breazeale in the pecking order. And Ortiz has literally just had his chance, surely he should be further back in the queue.
So why didn’t they just make Breazeale fight Whyte ? I’ll tell you fucking why. Because Wilder has no intention of fighting Joshua next, no matter what “he said!”
It’s apparently a done deal between Wilder and Breazeale . No doubt they’ll spin it by saying Joshua didn’t want it , hence the low offer, blah, blah , bullshit.
But it’s funny, we never saw that “counter offer within the next 48 hours” did we? That was about 10 days ago!
Hey, believe what you want, but I know what I believe.

This is a fucking joke and i feel for Dillian Whyte, he's been royally fucked over here.

This is a "secondary eliminator" even though Dillian is ranked number 1 by the WBC

Whyte vs Brezeale wouldn't be a bad fight either

[powerpuncher]

I actually like this fight. It’s one of the best fights able to be made in the division and if Whyte wins, I think it really boosts him to the top to fight Wilder or to get a rematch with AJ.

I think it'll be Wilder v Breazeale next and Whyte v Ortiz sounds reasonable. But just another rung of waiting that'll stretch out any hope of AJ v Wilder anytime soon. Povetkin fresh off eliminator, Miller and Duhaupas in wba eliminator and now this. Too many chefs in the kitchen. That said Whyte can beat Ortiz.

Ortiz will outpoint

You still have people pretending that Joshua has fought nobody worth mentioning but Wlad. Now Whyte v Ortiz is being talked about after the absurd WBC trying to scrape some more dollars together, and Whyte for many is seen as the favourite. Whyte is no pushover but you have to be impressed with the way Joshua dealt with him. He is far more dangerous than Stiverne or Ortiz and Yet Wilder seems to think that he is the man with all the experience. It's crazy hands over your own eyes stuff from boxing fans to pretend that Wilder is somehow hungry for challenges. He didn't even want to be in the same stadium as Whyte let alone share a ring with him
