Expectation is growing in the boxing world with the confirmation of the return of Vergil Ortiz Jr, the undefeated Texan of Mexican descent with a record of 23 victories (21 by knockout)

After his victory over Israil Madrimov and a forced break due to a hand injury, Vergil Ortiz is preparing to return to the ring in the first or second week of October 2025.

Jake Paul’s finance turns her back on him and fans totally relate

Golden Boy Promotions president Oscar De La Hoya recently expressed that Ortiz’s recovery has been favorable and that they are in talks to close his next fight. According to De La Hoya, the goal is clear: to make Ortiz the next big boxing star at 154 pounds.

He’s in a very competitive division. If you look at the current fighters, Vergil has the potential to stand out as one of the best

What makes Vergil Ortiz special?

  • During his recovery period, Ortiz has been the subject of rumors and criticism, especially on social media. Many accused him of ducking big fights, including a possible matchup with the talented Jaron “Boots” Ennis. Vergil Ortiz responded sarcastically, making it clear that his medical recovery was not an excuse, but a necessity.
  • On the other hand, he has had an intense virtual discussion with Puerto Rican Xander Zayas, recent WBO world champion. Ortiz congratulated Zayas, but questioned the quality of his opponent, which sparked a heated discussion that quickly went viral.

October will be a key month for boxer Vergil Ortiz

Ortiz’s next fight could mark a key point in his career. Not only does it represent his comeback from injury, but also an opportunity to silence his critics and establish himself as a legitimate contender for the undisputed championship.

The name of his opponent has yet to be revealed, but what is certain is that Ortiz and his team will be looking for a matchup that will keep him in the media and competitive spotlight at 154 pounds.

The return of Vergil Ortiz

Ortiz, born in Texas, represents a new generation of fighters who not only shine in the ring, but also outside of it, connecting with new audiences through digital platforms.

The fight in October will not be just another bout on the boxing calendar. It will be an opportunity for Vergil Ortiz Jr. to get back on the road to glory, to prove that his talent is intact and that he is ready for even greater challenges.

With De La Hoya fully trusting in his potential and fans eager to see him shine again, all indications are that 2025 could be the year that Ortiz cements his status as a stellar figure in the boxing world.

MLB Wild Card live updates: Scores and latest from today’s games, starting with Tigers vs. Guardians

Tigers-Guardians Game 2 takeaways: Guardians bats come alive at right time to tie series CLEVELAND — Brayan Rocchio hit five home runs this season. His sixth of the year blew the lid off Progressive Field on Wednesday, as the Cleveland Guardians infielder’s eighth-inning homer put Cleveland ahead in a 6-1 win in Game 2 of the Wild Card Series. The Rocchio rocket on a 99.9 mph fastball from Tigers reliever Troy Melton forced a decisive Game 3, absolving the Guardians of their quiet offensive start to this series and punishing the Tigers’ inability to finish the job. Detroit went 1 for 15 with runners in scoring position in Game 2, leaving them at 2 for 23 in the series. The Guardians didn’t put a runner in scoring position until the rally that followed Rocchio’s deciding homer. Happy Rocctober to you and […]
