DESPRÉS 45 ANYS AL COR DE LA FOSCURA ÀFRICA RUGI A L'ESCENA GLOBAL DE LA BOIXA

Gener 23, 2021 FNU47 Leave a comment

Class vs Mwale i Pulev vs Meroro encapçalen conjuntament l'històric esdeveniment de televisió mundial "Rumble-in-Dar" el 29 de gener

Al llarg dels anys, la boxa africana s'ha vist com el parent pobre pel que fa al públic global de la boxa professional del continent.. Amèrica i Europa han dominat l'escena sembla per sempre, però això ja havia començat a canviar, ja que, més recentment, és l'Orient Mitjà el que ha passat al primer pla acollint els grans esdeveniments que atrauen l'interès global.

En poc més d'una setmana Boxa des d'Àfrica, tornarà a rugir a l'escena decidit a tenir un impacte tal que els aficionats a l'esport també comencin a desplaçar-se cap a aquest continent..

Històricament, la boxa a l'Àfrica ha atret públic global, qui podria oblidar que una de les baralles més grans de tots els temps va tenir lloc a Àfrica. Ja a l'octubre 1974 els ulls del món estaven posats al Zaire mentre Muhammad Ali desafiava George Foreman per la seva corona mundial a Kinshasa.

Mentre Rumble in the Jungle, Sens dubte, l'esdeveniment esportiu més important del segle XX, va ser l'esdeveniment de boxa més vist mai, atreu aproximadament mil milions d'espectadors a tot el món, l'esperat Legacy for Boxing in Africa no es va materialitzar. Sí, des d'aleshores hi ha hagut algunes baralles al continent que es van mostrar a les principals xarxes d'Amèrica i Europa, aquests eren únics, no hi ha hagut esdeveniments internacionals regulars per mantenir l'impuls, però tot això està a punt de canviar...

El 29 de gener 2021, Global Boxing Stars amb seu a Botswana i Jackson Group, amb seu a Tanzània, presenten el primer dels sis esdeveniments Fight Night prevists a Tanzània, anomenada evocadorament "Rumble-In-Dar", esperen restablir l'equilibri i atraure aficionats a les arts pugilístiques arreu del món.

L'esdeveniment innovador està co-encapçalat per la classe Ibrahim de Tanzània (24-6-0) contra el malauí Dennis Mwale amb seu a Sud-àfrica (8-0-0), que competirà per la Federació Mundial de Boxa (WBFed) Campionat intercontinental de pes lleuger.

Tervel Pulev de Bulgària (15-0-0), el germà del pes pesat Kubrat Pulev, que va ser KO per Anthony Joshua al desembre, contra el Vikapita Meroro de Namíbia (29-9-0) cotitulars en una ronda de deu no campionat.

L'embalatge de la targeta inclou un altre concurs de campionat, entre el Shaban Hamadi Jongo de Tanzània (7-1-2) i Nova York, Shawn Miller dels EUA (18-5-1) per al cinturó de pes pesat internacional de la WBFed.

La perspectiva mundial invicta de Zambia Lolita Muzeya (16-0-0) la fa tornar al ring a l'esdeveniment i la sensació de pes pesat en ascens de Sud-àfrica Ardi "The Iron Fist" Ndembo (1-0-0) fa la seva segona sortida professional.

'Rumble-in-Dar' tindrà lloc davant d'un públic al Next Door Arena de Dar-Es-Salaam, com Tanzània, a diferència de gran part del món actual, s'ha vist poc afectat pel COVID 19 pandèmia i s'emetrà a tot el món, proporcionar accés gratuït a més de tres quarts de mil milions de cases i milers de milions més de dispositius.

Quines són les persones tan decidides a canviar no només la percepció de la boxa africana, sinó també a mostrar el talent africà en una plataforma global?.

Scott Patrick Farrell, el fundador de Global Boxing Stars, és l'antic conseller delegat de Ringstar Boxing i antic director general de Commvault inc, una corporació que va passar a ipo 500 milions de dòlars mentre Scott formava part de l'equip directiu superior.

"En els negocis i en la vida, el temps ho és tot, Crec que aquest és el moment adequat, Tanzània és el lloc adequat i entre GBS i Jackson Group tenim l'associació adequada per portar aquesta plataforma al següent nivell., estan en marxa plans per desplegar títols mundials, eliminatòries de títols mundials, així com combats internacionals sense títol en les futures cartes, per tal d'augmentar la visibilitat i la qualitat dels cartells espectacle per espectacle. Tenim una estratègia per posicionar Dar es Salaam com un nou centre de turisme esportiu".

Scott viu el somni i treballa regularment amb l'únic campió mundial de la vuitena divisió del saló de la boxa, el senador Manny Pacquiao, com a copromotor i productor/director d'esdeveniments de la sèrie de boxa del campionat Manny Pacquiao..

Al llarg dels anys, Scott ha construït i ha estat una part molt integral de nombrosos contendents que es van convertir en Campions del Món, com ara; El contendent número u de pes gallo de la FIB Michael Dasmarinas. Scott va portar el boxejador desconegut de les Filipines per convertir-se en el campió del món IBO, i després a una victòria a l'eliminatòria del títol mundial de la FIB. Convertint Dasmarinas en el desafiant obligatori per a la molt ordenada corona del títol mundial de la FIB. Un altre èxit ve amb el campió del món de quatre divisions i actual campió del món de l'OMB, John Riel Casimero, com a part dels Sean Gibbons. & Equip de boxa del campionat Manny Pacquiao, i Paulus 'The Rock' Ambunda excampió del món de l'OMB i de l'IBO, Scott va aconseguir la seva tercera victòria al títol mundial amb Ringstar Asia.

Scott ara ha pres totes les lliçons i experiència de la seva vida i s'ha associat amb Jeremy Bean, que té connectivitat panafricana i experiència en la realització d'esdeveniments de transmissió en directe des dels principals centres econòmics del continent per crear Global Boxing Stars, una empresa de gestió professional per representar i construir la carrera d'un lluitador. El seu objectiu és desenvolupar combatents amb seu a Àfrica i altres parts del món, per construir noves perspectives de Campió del Món per signar amb els principals promotors dels EUA, Regne Unit i altres parts del món. Scott té una gran relació de treball i una trajectòria provada amb els gegants de la indústria de la boxa com Top Rank, PBC, Golden Boy, DAZN i Matchroom, i molts més…

"Estem molt engrescats per aquesta col·laboració, tenim alineació, una visió comuna i l'energia és bona. Junts, Global Boxing Stars i Jackson Group busquen desenvolupar un nou model comercial per a la boxa panafricana i desbloquejar valor mitjançant la posada en comú de les nostres xarxes, recursos i capacitat operativa. Kelvin i jo som uns nois de màrqueting que ha picat l'error de la boxa, veiem la boxa panafricana com un gegant adormit i creiem que la nostra associació serà pionera en un nou enfocament que portarà a la taula socis corporatius amb una petjada panafricana". Va dir el company director de Global Boxing Stars Jeremy Bean.

Jeremy prové d'un entorn publicitari, juntament amb màrqueting esportiu pràctic i experiència en la realització d'esdeveniments, juntament amb una trajectòria demostrada de producció internacional, esdeveniments de boxa en directe per tot el continent africà.

Mentre produïa el contingut de boxa panafricana per a l'associació Kwesé ESPN, Jeremy va organitzar baralles a tots els principals centres econòmics del sud, Àfrica oriental i occidental.

Kelvin Twissa s'uneix al duet dinàmic en aquest gran projecte, CEO de The Jackson Group.

"Jeremy i jo ens vam connectar per primera vegada quan estava fent espectacles amb Sport Pesa a Kenya i ell estava produint el contingut de boxa panafricana per a l'associació ESPN Kwesé., ara sota diferents banderes i amb el que sembla oportú, ens unim per posicionar Tanzània com una nova meca de lluita i centre de turisme esportiu.. El Grup Jackson i Global Boxing Stars han format un poderós, equip interfuncional: podem parlar de màrqueting i anuncis amb marques i patrocinadors, podem parlar d'especificacions de televisió i producció amb les emissores i ara podem parlar de boxa, tot com una única unitat de col·laboració poderosa".

Kelvin, un estrateg de màrqueting d'alt nivell amb experiència en la gestió de campanyes i marques a tot Àfrica, és l'antic director de màrqueting global de SportPesa, aporta a l'equip una àmplia experiència a través de diferents funcions de màrqueting a nivell d'Exco amb algunes de les empreses i telecomunicacions més grans del continent africà..

Ara en el paper de CEO sota la bandera del Jackson Group, Kelvin és capaç d'aconseguir valor mitjançant associacions comercials i connectivitat al centre d'Àfrica Oriental i al continent en general. L'experiència de Kelvin en esports va des del futbol que treballa amb clubs i lligues d'Àfrica i Europa, inclòs l'Everton, Arsenal, Laliga i Cape Town City FC.

Durant el seu temps a SportPesa, Kelvin va crear la SportPesa Fight Night, així com va portar Tony Bellew a Kenya com a part de l'Everton SportPesa Boxing Road Show. La sèrie Nairobi Figth Night va dominar 7.4 milions d'audiències només a Kenya que es mostren a més 7 canals d'Àfrica.

Sens dubte, l'escenari sembla preparat per a una nova energia i enfocament a la boxa panafricana, amb Tanzània com a teló de fons i aquesta associació emocionant entre Global Boxing Stars i The Jackson Group, pionera en un nou model comercial i col·laboratiu..

41-0 Gilberto “Esquerrà” Ramirez all in for WBC Interim World light heavyweight clash with “Senyor” Marcus Browne

Gener 23, 2021 FNU47 Leave a comment

LAS VEGAS (Gener 14, 2021) — The first super middleweight world champion of Mexican decent, invicte **Gilberto “Esquerrà” Ramírez** (41-0, 27 KOs) is all in for a potential World Boxing Council (CMB) Interim light heavyweight World title fight against 2012 U.S. Olímpic **“Senyor” Marcus Browne** (23-1, 16 KOs).

The WBC ordered Ramirez vs. Browne this past Monday because reigning WBC light heavyweight World champion **Artur Beterbiev** (15-0, 15 KOs) hasn’t defended his title since capturing it October 18, 2019, due to getting COVID-19 during training camp, as well as for other pandemic related restrictions. Beterbiev is also the reigning International Boxing Federation (FIB) light heavyweight World champion.

Ramirez is the No. 1 light heavyweight contender in the WBC ratings, while Browne is ranked No. 4. Team Zurdo and Team Browne have until February 5^º to work out a deal before it’ll go to purse bid. Martinez is promoted by his own company, Zurdo Promotions, while Browne is represented by PBC.

“This is an interesting opportunity and I’m ready to fight anyone in the light heavyweight division to leave my mark on the sport,” Ramirez said. “I know Marcus has been out of the ring for a while, but he’s a U.S. Olympian and still one of the best in the game. I know he’s wanted this fight for a while and hopefully we can make something happen.

“Addicionalment, it’s always been my dream to get the green belt (CMB) and bring it back to Mexico. I have a lot of respect for the WBC and Mauricio Suliman and I am grateful for all their love and support throughout my career.”

El mes passat, Ramirez fought for the first time in 20 mesos, stopping defending champion **Alfonso “El Tigre” López** (32-4, 25 KOs) in the 10th round of the “Battle of Rio Grande” esdeveniment principal, which marked the debut of Zurdo Promotions.

The 29-year-old Ramirez became the first Mexican fighter to capture a world super middleweight crown in 2016, when the ultra-gifted, athletic southpaw pitched a complete shutout against defending title holder **“Rei” Arthur Abraham**(44-4), winning each round for a 12-round unanimous decision (120-106 X 3) to become the World Boxing Organization (OMB) campió del món.

Ramirez successful defended his WBO title five times against 33-4-1 **Maksym Bursak** (DEC12), 22-0 **Jessie Hart** (DEC12), 25-0-1 **Habib Ahmed** (25-0-1), 23-0 **Roemer Alexis Angulo** (DEC12), and Hart again in a rematch (DEC12). “Esquerrà” moved up to the light heavyweight division in 2019, destroying 29-6-1 **Tommy Karpency**, who was unable to continue fighting after four rounds.

A talented southpaw as well, Browne was a decorated U.S. amateur out of New York City, who won gold medals at the 2010 U.S. Campionat Nacional de PAL i 2012 U.S. Campionats Nacionals, prior to representing the U.S. at the Olympic Games in London.

Browne, 30, is a past WBA Interim light heavyweight World champion. He has beaten a pair of word champions, 22-1-3 **Badou Jack** (DEC12) i 25-7-1 **Gabriel Campillo** (25-7-2). Other notable opponents he has defeated include 21-0 **Radivoje Kalajdzic** (DEC8), 20-2 **Thomas Williams** (KO6), 28-0 **Siguin Monaghan** (TKO2), i 18-1-1 **Lenin Castell** (10 DE DESEMBRE). Browne’s last fight was August 3, 2019, when he suffered his first loss as a professional to former world champion **Jean Pascal**(33-6-1) via an eight-round technical decision, after Browne suffered a severe cut over his left eye from an accidental head-butt.

“There are always challenges to making a fight become reality,” Ramirez concluded, “but me being both the fighter and sole promoter, I’m flexible on the common problems that takes to make a fight. I’m not sure how much time Marcus will need to be ready, but both time and location can be determined when the other preliminary items are agreed upon. If it goes to a purse bid, I’m ready for the process and, amb optimisme, this fight can happen for both of us.”

UNBEATEN REYMART GABALLO SCORES CONTROVERSIAL SPLIT-DECISION VICTORY OVER FORMER WORLD CHAMPION EMMANUEL RODRIGUEZ IN SHOWTIME® MAIN EVENT SATURDAY NIGHT

Desembre 20, 2020 FNU47 Leave a comment

**Jaron Ennis vs. Chris van Heerden Declared No Decision After Accidental Headbutt; Gary Antonio Russell Scores Technical Decision Victory Over Juan Carlos Payano**

**Feu clic a** **AQUÍ** **Per a les fotos d'Amanda Westcott / SHOWTIME**
*(Photos will be uploaded shortly)*

**Uncasville, Conn.** – December 20, 2020 – Undefeated bantamweight **Reymart Gaballo** scored a controversial split-decision victory over former world champion **Emmanuel Rodríguez** in the main event of Saturday night’s *SHOWTIMEBOXING: EDICIÓ ESPECIAL* Des de Mohegan Sun Arena a Uncasville, Conn., en un acte presentat per Premier Boxing Champions. Amb la victòria, Gaballo picked up the vacant interim WBC Bantamweight Title.

Saturday’s headliner in the last SHOWTIME BOXING event of 2020 was competitive from the opening bell. In only three of the twelve rounds were Rodriguez and Gaballo separated by more than three landed punches. Total, Gaballo (24-0, 20 KOs) threw 148 more punches than Rodriguez (19-2, 12 KOs), but still managed to connect on 16 fewer power punches. The punches of the 28-year-old Rodriguez seemed to be cleaner, as he wobbled the Filipino Gaballo on more than one occasion. No obstant això, two of the judges favored Gaballo’s aggression over Rodriguez’s ring generalship.

SHOWTIME’s unofficial scorer Steve Farhood scored the fight 118-110 in favor of Rodriguez and SHOWTIME analyst and former world champion Raul Marquez was dismayed by the judges’ decision.

“There’s no way Gaballo could have won that fight,", va dir Márquez. “In the worst-case scenario, you could have maybe given him three rounds. I gave him no rounds.”

“I am very happy and blessed to win this belt,” said the 24-year-old Gaballo. “I was always moving forward and controlling the pace, so I thought it was a close fight that either of us could have won.

“I’m waiting for my team to tell me what they have planned for me next. I’m going to keep training hard so I’m always ready for the opportunity when it comes.”

“Va ser una bona lluita, but he only won about two or three rounds,"Va dir Rodriguez. “There were two punches from me for every punch he landed. He knows he lost. Everyone knows we won. My team told me to go out and keep boxing him in the late rounds. We knew he needed a knockout in the twelfth round. That was his only chance to win.”

En l'esdeveniment co-principal, Philadelphia’s undefeated welterweight sensation **Jaron Ennis** (26-0, 24 KOs) saw his impressive 16-fight knockout streak come to a disappointing end after an accidental headbutt in the first round caused a brutal cut to the forehead of his opponent, **Chris van Heerde** (28-2-1, 12 KOs). Watch the clash of heads AQUÍ: https://twitter.com/ShowtimeBoxing/status/1340495823474442240

With only two minutes and thirty-nine seconds inside the ring to showcase his skills, Ennis was still able to flash glimpses of his championship potential as he landed 22 de 57 cops, 19 of them power shots as he appeared destined to stop the South African van Heerden and keep his KO streak alive before the clash of heads.

“Before the headbutt I had already cut him and I felt strong,” said a disappointed Ennis. “I knew he was ready to go. I feel like I’m getting better and better. Now I’ll just get back in the gym. As you could see from the first round, I was handling him easily. I feel like everyone is still sleeping on me, but I’m ready for anyone. Bring on the big names.”

A l'obertura de la televisió, bantamweight contender **Gary Antonio Russell** (18-0, 12 KOs) kept his unblemished record intact with a technical decision victory over former world champion **Juan Carlos Payano** (21-5, 9 KOs). After an accidental headbutt caused a bad cut to the left brow of Payano, referee David Fields stopped the fight after the sixth round at the advice of the ringside physician. The fight went to the scorecards, where Russell led on all three cards (58-56, 59-55, 59-55).

Abans de la lesió, Russell and Payano were engaged in a scrappy brawl that saw multiple exchanges of power punches. In the closing seconds of the sixth, and ultimately final round, Russell caught Payano with a counter-shot that hurt Payano. Russell landed 86 de 243 punches while Payano landed just 58 de 268 cops. Russell flashed excellent body work throughout the fight, out landing Payano 40 a 17 on body shots.

In SHOWTIME BOXING Prelims action that streamed live on the Canal de YouTube SHOWTIME Sports i Pàgina SHOWTIME Boxa Facebook, highly regarded 21-year-old prospect Brandun Lee (21-0, 19 KOs) extended his knockout streak to 13 with a third-round stoppage of Dakota Linger (12-5-2, 8 KOs) and Benjamin Whitaker (15-4, 3 KOs) scored a majority decision victory (76-76, 77-75, 79-73) over previously unbeaten prospect Zsolt Daranyi (15-1, 14 KOs).

Dissabte de *BOXA DE SHOWTIME: EDICIÓ ESPECIAL* telecast will replay on Monday at 10 p.m. ET / PT a SHOWTIME EXTREME.

Un equip de producció líder en la indústria i la tripulació d’anuncis van oferir totes les vistes, sounds and drama from Mohegan Sun Arena. Veteran broadcaster Brian Custer hosted the telecast. Versatile combat sports voice Mauro Ranallo called the action ringside alongside Hall of Fame analyst Al Bernstein and former middleweight world champion Raúl “El Diamante” Marquez providing expert analysis.

Desembre 20, 2020 FNU47 Leave a comment

“I think it’s inevitable,” – Logan Paul on potential fight against his brother, Jake

Watch Full FOOD TRUCK DIARIES InterviewAQUÍ

QUÈ: YouTube sensation turned professional boxer Logan Paul joins this week’sFOOD TRUCK DIARIES, a segment under SHOWTIME Sports’ digital talk show and podcast seriesBELOW THE BELT WITH BRENDAN SCHAUBto preview his highly touted February 2021 boxing exhibition against all-time great Floyd Mayweather.

Paul details to Schaub how the Mayweather bout came to fruition, explains where his love and passion for boxing came from and speculates on a potential clash with his brother and fellow pro boxer Jake Paul, who scored a viral sensation over former NBA star Nate Robinson last month.

Following are excerpts from the episode:

On how the fight with Floyd Mayweather came about…

Paul – “I signed [the contract] and then after just months and months going back and forth, figuring out dates – we had three different dates – and how to announce it and just the strategy behind it. It finally came to fruition and this event that supersedes everything I’ve ever done in my life, finally solidified.”

On his boxing skills and last fight against KSI…

Paul – “I think we surprise a lot of people. It’s what I’ve done my whole life. I’ve just exceeded expectations and I don’t think there’s anything online that’s representative of how good I am or the level at which I’m operating at this point in my life when it comes to boxing. I think my last fight wasn’t indicative in the slightest. I remember after it happened, bre, the bell rang at the sixth round and I had half a tank left…Something just didn’t click that day…A year later, after an ‘L’, you secure a fight with the biggest fighter on the planet. It never really felt like a loss.”

On the rules of the Mayweather bout…

Paul – “I don’t think there’s a weight as of now. If they make me drop weight I’ll be pissed. I’ll make a thing about it. I’ll f***ing complain about it and sh*t. That’s the thing, dret? The greatest boxer of all time faces the young behemoth. I’m going in there and I’m towering over this dude and that’s what makes it exciting. It’s David vs. Goliath.”

On a potential fight with his brother, Jake…

Paul – “My dad does not want us to do that. If you want my opinion, I think it’s inevitable. I think Jake and I in two to four years’ time are going to be beating the sh*t out of each other in a ring and I think it’ll be one of the most historical sporting events to take place ever.”

PER BAIX DEL CINTURÓ explores the intersection of combat sports and pop culture through the eyes of former fighter, comedian and red carpet host Brendan Schaub.

Undefeated lightweight prospect Jamaine “The Technician” Ortiz No longer best kept secret after Tyson-Jones, Jr. PPV show performance

Desembre 20, 2020 FNU47 Leave a comment

WORCESTER, Missa. (Desembre 14, 2020) – Prior to his sensational performance on the recent Mike Tyson-Roy Jones, Jr. esdeveniment de pagament per visió, undefeated lightweight prospectJamaine “The Technician” Ortiz was boxing’s best kept secret. No more, encara que, as Ortiz firmly established himself as a rising star in front of countless fans among the 1.6 million PPV buys.

Ortiz flew from Boston to Los Angeles on Thanksgiving. He was driven to his hotel, where he immediately saw Jones, checked his weight, and walked to Staples Center. “I was comfortable from the start,” said the young fighter who was fighting for the first time as a professional outside of New England. “I was there to get the job done. I was on a mission. I walk to see the Staples Center and that was cool. I later took my run around the Staples Center and there were a lot of statues. It was beautiful. It was cool seeing the Lakers locker-room.”

The 24-year-old Ortiz (14-0, 8 KOs), the reigning World Boxing Youth World champion, noquejatSulaiman Segawa (13-3-1, 4 KOs) with a bruising body attack, hurting his opponent in the sixth round, and closing the show in spectacular fashion in the seventh for the vacant World Boxing Council (CMB) USNBC (U.S) Silver lightweight title. Segawa had never been stopped before as a professional.

Ortiz displayed his overall arsenal: stiff jab, lightning quick hands and feet, switching back and forth effortlessly from orthodox to southpaw stances, punishing hooks up and down, and the most lethal body shots seen from a New Englander since“Irish” Micky Ward.

“I was calm and cool before the fight,” Ortiz added. “I like to go into a fight, mentalment, like it was a sparring session and I always do good. I started out in an orthodox stance, established my jab and used it a lot. I think I should have used it more and could have beaten him with it. I listened to my coach (Rocky Gonzalez) and he told me when to switch. Body punching is the No. 1 thing with Rocky. I may not have shown it nearly as much in other fights, but he drills that into me all the time. In the sixth round, he told me to go more to the body, not looking to catch him, and in the seventh I really hurt him to the body.

“Segawa was definitely tough. He had beaten a lot of guys, including a few he upset. Every fight is a stepping-stone and I’m my worst critic. I felt that I could have knocked him out in the second round, but I didn’t want to go off the game plan

Ortiz set-up Segawa from the opening bell, ell es va trencar, and finished the show in grand style as Seqawa was hurt and trapped on the ropes, drawing kudos from highly respected people in the industry such as"Sucre" Ray Leonard, Teddy Atles, and others. Ortiz’ fanbase grew exponentially as boxing fans rushed to sign up to follow Jamaine during and after his breakout fight.

“Once people saw me perform and my style,” Ortiz continued, “they liked me. I could have shown more and thrown more combinations. I really needed to fight in front of the world. I got 5,500 new Instagram flowers that night. I guess, I’m no longer the best kept secret in boxing.”

“Our main goal is to win a world title,” Gonzalez commented. “This was fun and a great opportunity, but the motivation to be world champion is stronger. He dealt with this fight as just another fight, and he followed our game plan.

“His body shots set up the ending. I’m always telling him about Micky Ward’s body shots. You know, boxing is a dance, a salsa. Boxers need to dance; I don’t think they should just be orthodox. They all need to fight the other way and when Jamaine switched stances in the third, he never let up. I’ve trained him hard. I’m always on him and what better way to shut me up than ending it like he did on pay per view? It was a drop the microphone moment!"

Ortiz is promoted byJimmy Burchfield (Classic Entertainment and Sports) and advised byRichard Shappy iEddie Imondi.

Because of the uncertainty in boxing due to the pandemic, Ortiz’ 2021 schedule is unknown, but he isn’t boxing’s best kept secret anymore, “The Technician” is a bonafide rising star.
