MGM Grand, Las Vegas - BoxingScene.com was informed by Gilberto Mendoza Jr., the VP of the World Boxing Association, that his organization will issue letters on Monday - ordering a mandatory fight between WBA 'regular' heavyweight champion Ruslan Chagaev (33-2-1, 20KOs) and mandatory challenger Luis Ortiz (22-0, 19KOs).
Chagaev captured the 'regular' title with a twelve round majority decision win over Fres Oquendo in July. Ortiz picked the WBA's interim-title on Thursday in Las Vegas, with a first round TKO of Lateef Kayode. Wladimir Klitschko is the WBA's 'super champion' at the weight.
