Ortiz Jr. Hasn’t Been Touched

Boxing records can often be better than they look, but Ortiz Jr. is the real deal after beating Maurice Hooker and Egidijus Kavaliauskas.

The 24-year-old American has been busy as a professional, odds-on to leave with his 19th win in six years.

He has won by either knockout or TKO in every fight thus far, putting some seriously good fighters on the canvas.

He told media he wants to show his IQ, but bettors would prefer to see him go about his business as usual.

“I’m expecting a very tactical fight – almost like a chess match in there. I think fans will get to see how smart I am in the ring,” Ortiz told RingTV.

“It’s exciting and motivating to be on the threshold to bigger opportunities. It makes me want to work harder.”

Boxing odds have Ortiz Jr. at -2000 to win, -335 to by KO or TKO. It’s a fair price for the better fighter and McKinson would accomplish something by going the distance.

McKinson Seeks Life-Changing Win

Credit to McKinson for taking such a tough fight, especially after it was cancelled earlier in 2022. The 28-year-old Brit has never been scared of a tough fight, and this is easily his hardest.

The No. 12-ranked fighter in the welterweight division whipped Alex Martin in March, and he also defeated Chris Kongo in 2021. So, there’s nothing wrong with his record.

Beating Ortiz Jr. would elevate him to new levels, and he’s excited about the challenge.

“Obviously, back in March, unfortunate circumstances happened and Ortiz had to withdraw. But we got the opportunity again, so a big shout out and thank you to Team Golden Boy because they didn’t need to offer it to me again, but they did,” said McKinson.

“A win over Ortiz changes my life; it changes my city of Portsmouth, my team, my daughter, and everyone around me.”

The sportsbook isn’t giving him any respect, and that’s fair. However, he could give Ortiz Jr. a run for his money in the opening rounds, providing he doesn’t get fazed by the occasion.

Bettors could find value in the +850 odds, but it requires improvement from McKinson to get to Ortiz Jr.’s level.
