According to the team of junior welterweight veteran Silverio "Chamaco" Ortiz (28-14, 12KOs), they have accepted an offer to face Thomas Dulorme (18-1, 13KOs) of Puerto Rico on August 17th at the Revel Resort in Atlantic City, New Jersey. The card is headlined by an HBO televised main event featuring Daniel Geale defending his IBF middleweight title against Darren Barker.

Dulorme was trying to secure former champion Paul Spadafora, who turned down the opportunity.

Ortiz is certainly staying busy. He also accepted a September fight with countryman Jorge Paez Jr. (34-4-1, 21KOs) in Mexico. It appears that Ortiz is planning to move forward with both fights - or at least attempt to.
