Comments Thread For: After Finding a Friend in Fresno, Can Vergil Ortiz Jr. Land a Title Shot, Too?

[BlackRobb]

That’s the worst part about it
Never having a fight over 147

154 is stacked and this is best he could do? Zayas, Conwell, Tellez, Ramos.

I'm from Fort Worth, near Grand Prairie. I'm a huge V.O.Jr. fan. I will give him a pass on this one, but his next fight should be a credible opponent. Same goes for Canelo.

Ortiz didn't even get a full round in last fight after being out of the ring for ages. Obviously they want him to take an easy fight, shake off the rust and test his health and conditioning to make sure he's up to fighting the big dogs after the rhabdo. It makes sense, although I do wish they'd found a natural 154 fighter.
You wouldn't throw him straight into a tough fight after what he's been through, it'd be ******. Once he destroys dulorme I'm guessing it's a title fight afterwards

Totally agree but Dulorme is not the answer
He’s gonna get maybe two to three rounds out of it
He won’t get a title fight after this unless someone offers something , trying to capitalize on a guy who’s fought five rounds

Yeh dulorme taken too many beat downs now to offer much against Ortiz.
I do think Madrimov would be keen to fight him next, he'll know he's gotta fight him eventually as he's mandatory and better now then when he's had a few more fights. That would be a great fight.

Yes that would be the fight but he ain’t preparing well against the likes of Dulorme
Plus never fought at the weight

You'll be sorely disappointed. Vergil has no desire whatsoever in taking 50/50 fights. He had no appetite to fight Bud when he was his WBO mandatory or Boots when Boots called for him. Instead of going after guys like Fundora, Tszyu or Charlo, he will target the Ukrainian who just beat Mendoza or the Russian guy who picked up a vacant IBF belt. Mark my words.

Wasn't Dulorme driving for Uber a few years ago?
