Like all heavyweight contenders Luis Ortiz will be an interested spectator on August 20.
The date sees one of the biggest fights of the year take place when Oleksandr Usyk defends his three World Heavyweight titles against Anthony Joshua.
It will be the first defence for the Ukrainian and arrives 11 months on from their first fight at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
A dazzling performance by Usyk and a confusing one by Joshua led to the away fighter deservedly winning a unanimous decision.
Joshua has an uphill task to become a three-time champion but has enlisted the skills of trainer Robert Garcia to help him in his quest.
During a recent interview with several members of the media, filmed by FightHype, Ortiz was asked for his prediction on the fight.
Responding through his translator he answered:
Fifteen days later Ortiz faces an old Joshua adversary. The 43-year-old takes on former heavyweight champion Andy Ruiz Jr at the ******.Com Arena in Los Angeles.
