I think Avanesyan or Ray Robinson would be good tests.
Does this kid remind anyone else of Felix Trinidad?
Places his punches well and a great finisher.
Personally I would like him to try and take a better known name. I don’t think golden boy will , because they never really do.
Someone like a kell brook (if they can get him at welter) would be ideal - someone still considered reasonable level but clearly on the fade.
Alternatively maybe Jessie Vargas in a match room co promotion
Brook could be a good step up, can he make 147 tho? :thinking:
I think he is too good for those two and would beat them quickly and easily. He looks ready for guys like Porter, Thurman and Danny Garcia.
He is a fast handed puncher with both hands and a finisher like Trinidad. Trinidad won the world title at age 20 so maybe Ortiz can do the same at 22 or 23.
Tito was lucky that there was a very beatable champion in Mo Blocker for him to beat. Terry Norris already took his soul when Tito fought him.
I’d like to see him have a couple of tests before we throw him to the wolves.
Somebody mentioned Jessie Vargas that could be a good step forward. If he dominates him, then start looking at the top guys.
Lol you like Dulorme instead, Pacquiao is old and hot rn, Dulorme wont last past 2rds, its a stupid match that we know the outcome:439:
You got to build to the big fights. Ortiz has the talent but he doesn’t have the experience yet. Somebody made a great point when they said don’t Fernando Vargas this kid. :boxing:
What about the guys that just beat Sadam Ali? Young or whoever....
Ali would be more of a name than a genuine test IMO. I think Ortiz ices him early.
That Young guy looked pretty decent when he beat Ali, don’t think he’s fought since.
Josh Kelly or Jaron Ennis would make the most sense.That's a very bad idea. He is another rising prospect and fringe contender like Vergil Ortiz, Jr. What Ortiz need is a good gatekeeper on his resume someone like Jessie Vargas, Saddam Ali, Amir Khan, Josesito Lopez, Luis Collazo or a Kell Brook.
I think Avanesyan or Ray Robinson would be good tests.

I agree with most of the names that have been said, Sadam Ali could be a decent name to add to the resume, pretty sure he’s still with GBP.
Jessie Vargas is another guy under the DAZN umbrella who could be a great measuring stick in a few fights time.
In terms of who would provide a good test; I’d go with Ray Robinson next, he’s given various prospects big problems in recent fights.

Dulmore has a fight scheduled and so does Avanesyan
EDIT idk if Kelly-Avanesyan is still scheduled actually
Think it’s pretty much dead in the water. Booth never wanted that fight IMO.
Are you high homie? :rofl:
