    He didn't take it. It was offer to him without the IBF Rehydration clause and he denied it. Murtazaliev wants to make sure Ortiz is weakend.

    Minute 7.25

    So the challenger makes the rules to the champ?
    There are some boxers that have that much clout , but Vergil isn't one of them.
    Maybe Ortiz is still in the wrong weight class.

      "I don't like the [Murtazaliev] fight," De La Hoya told The Ring. "Vergil just had two tough fights against Madrimov and Bohachuk. Anybody in their right mind knows that's two tough fights. He needs a welcome-home type of fight

        I am not buying Ortiz's excuse. If he wanted the fight, it would have happened. The truth is Oscar thought is was too tough of a fight. SO they went for Lubin instead. Also, Funny how Ortiz did not offer Bohachuk a rematch... Same reasons i guess..

          WHERE IS Top Rank offer?


          Mayweather challenge Cottos WBA. He made the RULES. The people putting up the MONEY makes the RULES. The ONLY one making offers is Golden Boy. Top Rank is Protecting ZAYAS and the WBO(Top Rank Belt).

          Ortiz is a bigger Draw than Zayas. Zayas hasn't even beaten ONE single Top 10 at 154 and has been there all his Career. He hasn't beaten an EX Champ. He got gift Top Rank belt vs an Unkwown.

            So this dude mad an offer to Zayas and then went ghost, comes back after Zayas is champ demanding 50/50 snd
            Location preference. He also had a chance to fight Bakhram but backed out over the mandatory clause that you can’t gain 10 pounds. This chump is in no position to call anyone else a duck or act as if he’s really trying to real fights.

              Zayas is duck. Top Rank Protecting Zayas.

              Vergil beat Bohachuk, Madrimov, Mean Machine.

              Who did Zayas beat? A hot dog Vendor(Fact) for the Top Rank Belt. Beating Hot Dog Vendor gives you leverage.

                Ortiz already beat 2 Eastern Euros. Madrimov and Bohachuk. I doubt he would duck Murtazaliev. I'm sure Bohachuk can beat Murtazaliev. Murtazaliev hasn't done anything other tha beating "Tim Tszyu" coming of a loss. Who Lost Fundora. Fundor got wreck by Medonza. So we know Tim was never a top 10.
                The fight was for ibf title. It was Ortiz that backed out of the fight as that bodies rules don't allow him to weight bully.
