Philadelphia was once a heavyweight in the boxing game. Jack Dempsey and Gene Tunney packed more than 120,000 fans into the Sesquicentennial Stadium in 1926. Rocky Marciano, Joe Louis, Marvin Hagler and Joe Frazier all called Philly home on fight night.
Ennis vowed to bring a major title defense back to Philadelphia, though that seemed more of a longshot than Lima pulling off an upset in the scheduled 12-rounder on Saturday night.
While Ortiz is the top target, Ennis said there was some appeal to fight Puerto Rican fighter Xander Zayas next year at MSG
“I’m trying to be undisputed and collect all these belts,” Ennis said.
