Welterweight knockout artist Vergil Ortiz Jr. (17-0, 17 KOs) will return against Egidijus “Mean Machine” Kavaliauskas (22-1-1, 18 KOs) in a 12-round defense of his WBO International Welterweight Title. The bout will take place on Saturday, Aug. 14 at Ford Center at The Star in Frisco, Texas and will be streamed live on DAZN.
Undercard information will be announced shortly.
He’s defending his WBO international belt. Just like in the early 2000’s, he’s earning his way up the right way. None of this diamond, franchise, maya, Inca, Aztec, silver in recess crap, etc crap.
How is the international not a crap belt? How does international differ from world?
Michael, because the title isn’t “world”. It’s a stepping stone belt. Unlike the other ones I mentioned, those are all considered “world” championships.
That’s because Terrence Crawford and Top Rank won’t defend their belt!!! Lol They’d rather fight 140 pound guys. Lmao
Dont be fooled by the way Crawford handled Mean Machine. The dude can fight, and he did drop Crawford. With Ortiz style this will surely be an action packed war.
Very entertaining fight between two warriors, the youth and punching power of Ortiz will prevail in this one middle to tenth round stoppage in favor of Ortiz..
