Ortiz is listed as 38 or so and theres rumors he's actually 45 or older. To my eye his footspeed seems to have diminished quite a bit, he still has good hands and power but im not sure how mobile he will be.
I really dont rate wilder but to me if ortiz is as slow on his feet as i think he may be, then it becomes a winnable fight for wilder. But if Ortiz is mobile and can get into range then wilder is done for imo.
It's a shame with ortiz though because he's at the stage he could turn old overnight literally any day now. Same with povetkin, these guys might have one great win left in them but neither of them is going to be on top in 18-24 months time.
