Inside Boxing | Vergil Ortiz ‘done’ with Oscar De La Hoya, Opetaia-Glanton preview
Description
Dan Canobbio and Chris Algeri kick off the show with news that Vergil Ortiz is “done” with Golden Boy Promotions after the recent ruling in favor of Oscar De La Hoya’s promotional company and their lengthy negotiations for a Jaron Ennis fight (04:08). If this fight doesn’t happen, who could Ortiz and Ennis fight (18:26)?
Next up is a Jai Opetaia-Brandon Glanton title fight preview which includes the IBF’s reluctance to have their title on the line in the fight due to the ongoing war between the traditional sanctioning bodies and Zuffa Boxing. Will Opetaia vacate the IBF title? Will the fight with Glanton go the distance (30:22)?
Finally, the conversation shifts to the welterweight division and the latest Devin Haney-Ryan Garcia-Rolly Romero saga which sees the trio all angling to fight each other. Which fight makes the most sense and which is most likely to happen next (48:50)?
