Impressive Performance
Vergil Ortiz Jr. put on a dominant display in his latest fight, ruthlessly stopping Samuel Vargas in the seventh round to extend his undefeated record to 19-0, with 19 knockouts.
Ortiz’s power was evident from the opening bell, as he repeatedly rocked Vargas with hard shots. The 24-year-old showed no mercy, relentlessly pursuing Vargas around the ring and not allowing him any respite.
Clinical Finish
In the seventh round, Ortiz landed a devastating left hook that sent Vargas crashing to the canvas. The referee immediately called off the fight, recognizing that Vargas was in no condition to continue.
Ortiz’s performance was a testament to his skills and determination. He is now one of the most feared young fighters in boxing.
Tszyu on the Horizon?
With his impressive victory, Ortiz has put himself in prime position for a showdown with Australian superstar Tim Tszyu. Tszyu is also undefeated, with a record of 21-0, and has expressed his desire to face Ortiz in the future.
A fight between Ortiz and Tszyu would be a highly anticipated matchup between two of the brightest prospects in boxing. It would be a clash of styles, with Ortiz’s relentless pressure and power against Tszyu’s slick boxing skills and sharp counterpunching.
Next Steps
Ortiz is expected to return to the ring later this year, likely in a title fight. Depending on the timing and availability of Tszyu, a matchup between the two could be on the cards for early 2024.
Boxing fans are eagerly awaiting the possibility of Ortiz vs. Tszyu. It has the potential to be one of the most exciting fights of the year.
Kind regards,
