Hi Hive account@verbal-d, Dillian Whyte sure has a big mouth and likes to talk trash..

Ortiz is a risky fight for him and it would be a good one to see what level the top heavyweights are truly operating at. If Ortiz easily KOs Whyte then we can give a lot more props to Wilder.

But if its the other way round everyone will say Ortiz was over the hill so the best name on Deontay's record isn't all that..

If Whyte beats Ortiz and becomes a real player on this heavyweight scene then a fight with Wilder or a Joshua rematch becomes a big deal on its own without worrying about Joshua vs Wilder being made.

I think Whyte's real beef is that he has taken a harder route to become No.1 in the WBC rankings than Dominic Breazeale who has now been given WBC mandatory status for Wilder after beating Eric Molina..

It looks like Whyte will be fighting Kubrat Pulev next anyway for the IBF but I think this Ortiz fight still might happen at the end of the year because that would be a big fight in the UK
