Fundora vs Ortiz Fight Pushed | Boxing News

The boxing world is heating up at junior middleweight as Jaron “Boots” Ennis dominates the conversation, but Robert Garcia, trainer to Vergil Ortiz, is quietly arguing that Sebastian Fundora might be the tougher test. Fundora’s resilience—knocked out, then rising to claim a title—and his towering six-foot-five frame make him a nightmare matchup. Ortiz, eager for the fight since winning his interim belt, now has a clear path: after his mandatory defense against Ermal Hadribeaj in October, Garcia is pushing for a showdown with Fundora by March or April next year. But here’s the twist—Ennis, holding two titles and eyeing undisputed status, could force Fundora into a unification bout instead, potentially delaying Ortiz’s shot—or even forcing him to move up to middleweight. The stakes are high, the timing tight, and the drama’s just beginning. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
