Dillian Whyte v Luis Ortiz - Both Agree to fight in December

[Spicoli]

Good fight. Whyte could even out jab the jabber. I like him by knockout.

Let's not forget that the "Old & faded" Ortiz had Wilder in massive trouble and was then stitched up by that mysterious extra 30 seconds recovery time Deontay was given
I think he would have finished Wilder off he wasn't given that full 90 seconds to clear his head.

Agreed. He also was up in the fight right until he ran out of gas for me. Lots of lesser fighters have caused Wilder problems and made him look bad, but I don’t remember anyone else flat out handling him. Its funny because if we based this on the way each guy looked against David Allen two years ago(they fought him Back to back) you’d expect it to be dreadful

It's a good heavyweight fight, if they can get it done.

I'd pick Ortiz to take out Whyte.

It would be a ballsy move by Whyte to take this sort of risk, when the AJ rematch is within reach.

This fights hurts me.

My two fav HWs of now.

Wont be betting on this one. I wont be hoping for a winner either.

I was hoping they would find a separate way of challenging for a belt.

Fucking that!!
This is what every division should be like...top fighters taking risks and fighting the other top fighters.
Kudos to Dillian Whyte too, the public love him for the reasons above.
Chisora too... both throwback fighters.

I agree it's a good fight and am looking forward to it.

But it smacks as a bit hypocritical to be lauding Whyte for taking on Ortiz ahead of a possible rematch with Joshua, while Wilder was raked over the coals for fighting the same guy (who I might add was a bit "less old" at the time).
