WBC heavyweight champion Deontey Wilder (39-0, 38 KOs) believes that Luis Ortiz will not be able to pick up a sparring partner similar to him. Wilder vs Ortiz can happen on March 3 in Brooklyn, USA.
"Malik Scott's style was difficult for Ortiz, especially that evening: he ran away from him, and this does not please Luis. He does not like to cut the corners and those who move a lot and are athletic. He certainly did not have such as me in his entire career. I think it will be difficult for him to find a sparring partner to prepare for me. Yes, his team can find someone as tall and long-armed, but certainly not as fast and strong as I am," Wilder said.
