Anyone catching this tonight? It's on Dazn so not seeing it here but happy to hear Ortiz is making a long-awaited return after being sidelined with his serious medical condition. Not long ago he was one of the clear favorites to grow into the welterweight division and make major noise. Now however he is campaigning at 154 and the fight with Lawson is contracted as a catchweight. Once upon a time Lawson was touted as a heavy hitting prospect with a sharp jab but the shine has come off after being ko'd a few times and inactivity. He's 2-0 since being ko'd by Charles Hatley in 2021. All indicators are Ortiz feels very comfortable thru training camp and on weight absent the problems of the past. An in shape Ortiz should comfortably have his way with Lawson especially the body shot machine we saw coming up.
Ohara Davies vs Ismael Barroso fight for the wba interim 140 belt on undercard. Not counting old man river Barroso out here . Actually wanted to see this one.
