Bakhram (23-0, 17 KOS) has attracted fans’ attention by beating former WBO 154-pound champion with his third-round knockout Tim Tszyu Last October 19 at the Caribbean Royal Royal in Orlando, Florida. Murtazaiev lost three innings in the second and knockouts once in the third.
Vergil Jr. For him, the realistic choice is Murtazaliev, who is brave enough to accept this patch. It’s the only option, but there’s no guarantee that Fundora or Crawford will fight him.
Ortiz Jr, 26, will beat former WBA junior middleweight champion unanimous decision in twelve rounds Israel Madrimov February 22 in Riyadh, on the base card of Artur Beterbiev vs. Dmitty Bivol 2. Vergil Jr.
Ortiz Jr. used pressure to cut Madrimov and dominate him in the second half of the game. This approach would be risky for Vergil Jr.’s use of Murtazaliev, as he would not move around like Madrimov. He will stand up and fight.

For Ortiz Jr., the battle was much closer than his victory over Madrimov. Despite this, he obviously won two battles but received a lot of punishment in the game.
