A lot is at stake for Ortiz, whose name is attached to very big matchups in 2026.
He and WBO titleholder Xander Zayas have circled one another, with the unbeaten Puerto Rican actually the top priority for this fight. Zayas and his team opted instead for a homecoming of his own in, with plans for a title defense to take place in Puerto Rico early next year.
Meanwhile, a potential superfight looms with Jaron “Boots” Ennis.
The unbeaten former lineal and unified welterweight champ makes his 154lbs debut on October 11 in his hometown of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. The claim from his side is that he and promoter Matchroom Boxing have already agreed to next face Ortiz, though the framework on the other side still needs to be discussed.
There is also the matter of upgrading his current title.
