    Orozco-Ortiz is off

    Dan Rafael‏ danrafaelespn
    Chance HBO co-feature of Orozco-Ortiz will be canceled. Orozco 6-7 pounds overweight. #boxing

    Orozco-Ortiz fight is off. Orozco refused to come down for weigh-in. Ortiz missed weight anyway at 142.5 pounds

    It's possible HBO will elevate a fight to the co-feature slot, that's still being sorted out

      More from Coppinger...

      Antonio Orozco was scheduled to fight Roberto Ortiz in the 10-round co-feature, but shortly before it was time to step on the scale, he was nowhere to be found.

      Representatives from Golden Boy Promtions made contact with Orozco in his room at the Renaissance in Los Angeles, and they were informed he had no plans to hop in the elevator and stroll over to the weigh-in being held in the hotel conference room.

      Ortiz missed weight anyway. He was 142.5 pounds for the junior welterweight fight.

      Sources told ******.com that it’s possible another undercard fight will be elevated to to the telecast, but no decision had been made at time of publication.

          Neither of them were even close?

          Why not just agree to make it at welterweight?

                HBO will only show Linares-Campbell and the Canelo-GGG replay

                  This is bizarre so both guys were off weight? Way to blow a huge opportunity co-main event on the same night they replaying the Canelo/GGG fight. SMH

                  If Ortiz was over anyway it's not for a title why not just increase the weight and have the fight at 145 or whatever?
