Refreshing to see two top contenders taking the tougher fights, not just talking about taking tougher fights.

By fighting Bohachuck, Ortiz will have fought at least 3 rounds in 2 years.

“I am feeling great. I wanted this fight because Vergil is a great fighter. Vergil was the best fighter in the 147 division and in the 154 division he is one of the best fighters."

Whoa, calm down there son! He wasn't all that!

I wonder how long he will be able to fight at 154 before he is forced to move up again due to health reasons. He is a very big boy.

Yep, Bohachuk is no tomato can. I was impressed by how he handled Mendoza.
It was a bit of a beat-down, to be honest.
I am eagerly awaiting the fight.
I will have to make french fries in the air fryer for this one.
