The mention of Turki Alashik to want to match the “boots” Jaron Ennis and Vergil Ortiz Jr. In a fight of 154 LB in November, the fans were amplified but skeptical that the fight occurs.
Ennis against Ortiz: will this happen?
It is a fight that could raise boots in celebrity if it seems impressive to defeat the undefeated winner of Vergil Jr.
On the other hand, if Ennis loses seriously, he should consider other career options, like going to 160. He is large enough to fight at the average weight, and the division is sterile of talent. It would be perfect for boots if it was beaten by Vergil Jr.
Ennis (34-0, 30 KB) has already refused what would have been the greatest salary of his career to fight Ortiz Jr. (23-0, 21 KB) on the February 22 map of Turki in Riyadh. It was a wasted opportunity for boots in a fight that would have increased its star power if it had won.
He would have refused an offer of $ 8 million to combat Vergil Jr. at the time, choosing to stay at 147 to face the WBA champion Eimantas Stanionis in a unification fight last April. It was a bad look at the Ennis boots, refusing a day of career pay to take a smaller money fight against Stanionis.
Turki will try to fight Ennis-Ortiz Jr. for November, as well as three other major fights. “We are now talking with all our friends to make a card in November. I hope to have [Vergil] Ortiz against boots [Ennis]”Said Alashikh at Ring Magazine.
November Riyadh card
- Moses itauma against Martin Bakole
- Jaron ennis against Vergil Ortiz Jr.
- William Zepeda against Andy Cruz
- Christian Mbilli against Lester Martinez
Assuming that Nenis agrees to fight Vergil Jr., it will be an excellent fight in its early days at 154.
