Comments Thread For: Virgil Ortiz respects Erickson Lubin for doing what Xander Zayas and Boots Ennis would not
Collapse

Didn't Zayas FORCE the WBO Mandotory to Fundora? What happened? Exactly. Forcing a Mandotory mean nothing. Doesn't guarantee a match. After this match he will activate his Mandotory. He wants to see if the hand has healed properly.
Didn't Ortiz's father posted a picture that Ortiz's hands were swollen and could not fight Boots? Didn't Zayas before he had a title was really disappointed when Ortiz fought someone else? It was up to Golden Boy to force a match against Fundora and they let that slide. Al Haymon will keep fights in house especially when there is a title involved.Comment

Sure and Murtazaliev, Fundora, Zayas, Bohachuk, Madrimov are Ducking Ennis that's why he chose Unknown Lima..Any more fake news?Comment

Well to be fair Boots did reject an actual initial hefty offer to fight Virgil at 154 and they preferred to stay at 147, cool no problem with that but a duck is a duck lol. For more perspective, Virgil is fighting Lubin next Who is Boots fighting again?

So Madrimov, Bohachuk, Fundora are also killing themselves and don't want to face Murtazaliev? I don't see Murtazaliev send anyone offers. Vergil already made offer and Murtazaliev denied it.
What's the excuse for Murtazaliev no fighting Bohachuk, Madrimov, Fundara? Ortiz already beat 2 of those. Sure Murtazaliev can get one of them.Last edited by boxingitis; 08-23-2025, 10:35 AM.Comment

this is what oscar said about virgil fighting murtazaliev
"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"Comment

Is it really a duck when a Champion in a lower weight class doesn't fight someone calling him out from a higher weight class?Comment

well it might be when the guy says he wants to clean out 147 as his reason and as soon as little teo calls him out for a fight he hoptails it right up to 154 insteadComment
