Tuesday’s press conference happened to coincide with his daughter Malachai’s fourth birthday.“You know, it’s the sacrifices you’ve gotta make,” Lubin said of the boxing grind. “Being away from family, being away from their birthdays and stuff like that, just so I can give them a better way of living.”
While Lubin fights for his family and career redemption, Ortiz aims to carry a city on his back.
The unbeaten Texan saw his perfect knockout-to-win run end last summer in a majority decision win over Serhii Bohachuk for the secondary version of the WBC title. Ortiz survived two knockdowns to prevail in their Fight of the Year-level slugfest in Las Vegas, Nevada.
In his most recent start, Ortiz once again went the 12-round distance. This time it came in a more convincing victory as he outpointed former WBA titlist Israil Madrimov in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
