Wilder KOs Ortiz in the 10th. Assuming Joshua takes Parker on the 31st, we could be in line for a Unification fight. Still think Joshua takes that fight against Wilder if/when it happens, but Wilder showed he can take a punch from Ortiz, and Ortiz hits HARD.

No accuracy with his full power shots though, you could see it in the 10th against Ortiz. He was just swinging WILDLY and hoping to land something. And Ortiz doesn't have a neck to actually move his head, so I expect Joshua to fair at least a bit better in that regard. Lol
But ya, gotta wait for AJ vs Parker first though, which should also be a slobber knocker.

I didn't even realize but their rematch is less than 3 months away... nuts. Super disappointing. Without knowing a single fact, I blame De La Hoya.. Canelo is too innocent to have done this ... this is what I choose to believe until given information otherwise. Haha

Edit:
He believes the traces of Clenbuterol are "consistent with meat contamination that has impacted dozens of athletes in Mexico over the last years."
Canelo says he will immediately move his training camp from Mexico to the United States and will submit to any number and variety of additional tests that the Voluntary Anti-Doping Association deems necessary ahead of the fight.
"I am an athlete who respects the sport and this surprises me and bothers me because it had never happened to me," Canelo says.
"I will submit to all the tests that require me to clarify this embarrassing situation and I trust that at the end the truth will prevail."

All in all though, solid win for AJ. I think he wanted to prove he could do 12 Rounds as well, as there was no killer-instinct like we've seen from him in the past.
