Vergil Ortiz Jr. vs Erickson Lubin: 'The Texas Machine' survives double knockdown to go the distance
Vergil Ortiz Jr. fights for just the second time this year on Saturday when he headlines a home state show against Erickson Lubin at the Dickies Arena in Fort Worth, Texas.
'The Texas Machine' returns to familiar territory for the latest defence of his WBC interim super welterweight title, with 'The Hammer' bidding to hand him a first pro defeat.
Ahead of his latest bout however, Ortiz will likely call on the experience of his first bout to go the distance last year, when he faced off with Serhii Bohachuk in Las Vegas.
There, despite suffering two knockdowns, the star worked his way to a majority decision victory with characteristic guile and determination, to take his strap for the firs time.
