Vergil Ortiz Jr is a hot prospect with a knockout ratio to match, and the 22 year old takes a marked step up in class against a man making a step-up in weight class in former WBO Super Lightweight champion, Maurice Hooker at Dickies Arena, Texas on Saturday night, live on DAZN.
Ortiz Jr (16-0, 16 KOs) has stopped all of his opponents thus far, and has been making gradual steps up in his last few outings, ahead of his clash with fellow Texan, Hooker for the vacant WBO International Welterweight title.
FORT WORTH, TEXAS (Feb. 2, 2021): The highly anticipated welterweight showdown between rising knockout artist Vergil Ortiz Jr. (16-0, 16 KOs) and former world champion Maurice “Mighty Mo” Hooker (27-1-3, 19 KOs) will take place at Dickies Arena in Fort Worth, Texas.
The event, which is stacked from top to bottom with competitive undercard bouts, will take place Saturday, March 20 and will be streamed live exclusively on DAZN worldwide, including the U.S., Mexico and Russia
“It’s rare that two fighters get to square off in front of their hometown fans, but with Dickies Arena just down the road from where both Vergil and ‘Mo’ were born, this venue is exactly the right place for this fight,” said Oscar De La Hoya, Chairman and CEO of Golden Boy. “With a likely world championship opportunity at stake in front of friends and family, this is a guaranteed action fight to see either in person or on the DAZN app.”
