WBC Heavyweight champion Deontay Wilder enraged after learning of the news. He gives his reaction with furious anger.
Team Ortiz hit back today at the WBC President tweeting that their man failed a VADA test. They said this was due to him needing to be on blood pressure medicine.
Wilder is not buying that however and is on a rampage at the moment online expressing his disgust at the prospect of the fight possibly not going ahead.
His initial reaction on Instagram firstly included this photo shop edit with a play on Ortiz’s nickname of ‘King Kong’:

Speaking in a video posted later, Wilder went on by saying:
“Last night I had a stress breakdown. I don’t understand why these fighters don’t want to f****** fight me fair. I cant understand it to save my life. They do all this f****** talking. This some bull****. You supposed to be the bogeyman of the division. You a b****. A straight b****. That’s sad man. And then these mothaf****** want to sit up here and blame some blood pressure medicine. My n**** you ain’t on no blood pressure medicine. Lets keep it real. Keep it real to all the people. You not on blood pressure medicine.”
Ortiz’s management has since released the following footage explaining what the medication in question is for with the following interview posted:
