Vergil Ortiz Sr. He denies that any negotiations took place between his son, the short-lived champion of WBC Munior Middle weight Vergil Jr. and IBF champion 154-lb Bakhram Murtazaliev for a summer fight. Ortiz sr. He claims that Vergil JR hands are still healing and may need surgery.

Alcatraz event

Bakhram promoters at the main event say Turks Alalshikh He offered them a fight with Vergil Jr. June 28 AlcatrazAnd they agreed to the offer. It is demanding to believe that Turki would offer Murtazaliev (23-0, 17 KO) a fight without a conversation with Ortiz Jr. about the clash.

If you are Vergil Ortiz Jr., the fight against Murtazaliev would be nightmarish for him, because he is a much greater blow from both hands and potentially would make a mess from his career before he won his first world championship title.

We saw the damage that “Little GGG” Israil Madrimov caused Vergil JR face last month in the fight on the card on February 22 in Riyadh. Physical roadside Ortiz Jr. He would gather against Murtazaliev, it would be much more severe than his previous two fights, which were quite bad. The style that worked so well for Vergil Jr., when he fought for 147, causes him to be chewed at the age of 154, now he is fighting with harsh killers designed for this type of fight.

ORTIZ JR. He looked like he had left the battlefield and took the worst. Earlier Vergil Jr. He was defeated in his dubious 12-first winning win with the short-lived WBC champion 154-LB Serhii Bohachuk on August 10 in Las Vegas. Boxing fans still talk about this match, feeling that the less popular Boachuk was robbed of victory by Nevada judges.

Now that Vergil Jr. He does not escape to the Alcatraz party on June 28, we will see who can find willingly face Murtazaliev. Destroyed the former WBO champion 154-lb Tim Tsyzyu October 19 last year, abandoning him four times in the third round of Nokaut in Orlando, Florida. After this performance, probably a few willingness are willing to face Bakhram and receive similar treatment.

The fight was refused

Vergil Ortiz SR: “Good for him, buddy and I wish you success, except that VS 😂, but Vergil has never been negotiated with you. Publish these e -Mile, contract and one sign, because we all know when you agree. Employ the name of someone else – said Vergil Sr. X.

Main events: “I can certainly. Everything I said is true. Bakhram is a champion. He accepted the challenge. The date offered is June 28 in Alcatraz. I’m sorry, Vergil will not be there. I hope it will recover soon. “

Richard Torrez Jr. says Frank Sanchez remains a hazardous opponent ahead of their IBF heavyweight eliminator on May 23 in Egypt, but believes the pressure and pace could ultimately break Sanchez.

Torrez discussed Sanchez during an interview this week ahead of their fight at the Glory at Giza event near the Giza Pyramids.


“You know, I think Frank, being of Cuban descent, has that Cuban style. He can box and box when he needs to,” Torrez Jr. said. in the podcast Mr. Verzace in Ring Magazine.

“I think he has a very mighty backhand. I think he knows how to kind of put you to sleep in the moment where he can hit the shot he wants.”

“And he’s really good at dictating the pace.

“But I think he lacks pace. If you’re able to take control of it and put pressure on him and impose your will on him, I think that’s where things start to fundamentally break down in the game plan.”

“I think we saw that with Kabayel and I think that’s something I’ll kind of emulate and what I’m already doing in my fights.”

Sanchez comes into the fight after suffering the first loss of his career to Agit Kabayel last year. Their fight ended after Sanchez suffered leg problems during the fight.

Torrez also addressed Sanchez’s recent knee problem, which caused the qualifiers to be postponed earlier this year.

“But Frank, I’m going out there preparing for the best. I’m going out there preparing for Frank, who has two great knees.

“That’s the Frank I hope to see because I want to fight the best. I don’t want to fight someone who is at 60%.

WBA make last minute decision on Usyk’s world title just days before Rico Verhoeven fight

With only nine days left until Oleksandr Usyk defends his WBC heavyweight world title against Rico Verhoeven, the WBA federation has decided to allow him to defend his belt as well.

Rico Verhoeven, considered a Dutch kickboxing legend, boasts a professional boxing record of just 1-0; that victory came over 12 years ago against Janos Finfera, who was 0-5 at the time.

As a result, when his unconventional fight with Usyk was announced, it was not expected that the undefeated Ukrainian’s belts would be in danger, and yet although the position of the WBA and IBF was unclear, the WBC controversially agreed to sanction the fight as a fight for the world heavyweight title.

This has led to speculation that the WBA and IBF may strip Usyk of his titles along with Murat Gassiev [WBA] and the winner of the Frank Sanchez vs. Richard Torrez Jr. fight. [IBF] he will likely benefit from this and either be elevated to champion status or set up for a free title fight in their respective bodies.

However, in an intriguing yet confusing twist, The WBA suddenly announced the terms of the “title fight” after a “special request”. They have now determined that Usyk’s victory will count as a successful title defense, but if Verhoeven were to create such an unusual situation, “the WBA Championship Committee will then review his [Usyk’s] status’.

“If Usyk emerges victorious, the fight will be officially recognized as a successful title defense. If the champion loses, the WBA Championship Committee will review his status and determine the next course of action regarding the heavyweight championship.”

Therefore, while Usyk can officially retain his WBA heavyweight title with a triumph next Saturday, unranked Verhoeven will not be able to claim the belt.

Although the WBA revealed that a victory for Verhoeven would allow him to enter its heavyweight rankings.

Jordan argued that the reality behind the proposed Joshua vs. Fury fight differs significantly from public statements, before explaining why he believed the event was already taking place outside the normal promotional structure.

“With all due respect, but first and foremost, the reasons why there is enough money to do this is, as we both know and have discussed many times, that both Tyson and Joshua have slightly different deals with their promoters than other fighters because they are not subject to a broadcasting obligation,” Simon said on talkSport Boxing.

“So when Tyson Fury does a deal, he doesn’t necessarily have to be on a broadcaster that Frank Warren or Eddie Hearn is contracted to.

“Where is this fight? Netflix, right?

“So with all due respect and I mean no disrespect to either Frank or Eddie, neither of them are promoting it.

“It’s a deal with Netflix that ultimately includes some of Turki Alalshikh’s money, so Dana is throwing her two pence into the ring.

“But Eddie promotes AJ and Frank promotes Tyson, so they must be involved.”

Jordan then suggested that White’s connection to Turki Alalshikh is the reason the UFC boss is publicly discussing the fight.

“Dana’s daddy will promote it, i.e. Turki Alalshikh” – said Simon.

Both Joshua and Fury are expected to return to the ring ahead of their scheduled showdown later this year, with Joshua scheduled to fight on July 25, with Fury also discussing a return fight.
