for the price of 74.95 none of the card should not be on the ppv including Martin vs Vargas
The Prince will be on the non-televised portion.
yes and it seems wrong to have a 75.00 card and not show every match. best i can hope for is one fight ends sooner and ppv buyers at least see the Martin\Vargas highlights
Yeh. PPV Channels are not like regular channels are they where they’ll have to time watch.
They should give us 5-6 hours of fights.

Wow, $75 American is over $100 NZ pesos
Enough to half fill my car with petrol, or over half a week's groceries.
Five years ago, heck, three years ago this would be on free TV.
Ortiz vs Wilder was free for me, and that actually had a title on the line.
You guys have to stop buying this sh*t and they will stop charging you to watch it.

Andy Ruiz avoids being photographed topless more than most women.
Re: Andy Ruiz Jr. vs. Luis Ortiz | FOX PPV - September 4, 2022
I don't know. Not as much as the Americans are being charged. Its usually half what they have to pay.
It’s $15 in the UK. Works out around £13.
Is it FITE for NZ?
There’s link somewhere up here. Click it and it should tel you a price if it’s available for you.
I don't have DAZN which is the NZ provider, and ESPN won't let me go any further on my VPN so that is not available my market.
Paying anything for this fight is unacceptable.

Yep, either that or wait a few days. It's not ground shatteringly important to the futures of the HW division
It's just some fat bloke and an old fella

fool me once shame on you. Fool me 9000 times, shame on me. Theres only so many times you claim ruiz is coming in at 220lb with abs...
But i also think afte ruiz lost some weight and got knocked down noone is wanting him to try come in light. an honest 265 will do the job... in 1998 ortiz would just box rings around a fat ruiz... but 2022 ortiz has cement shoes and durability issues, his only chance is to plant feet and land very big very early.

He waited to catch Martin
Ortiz has long arms and when he hunches over, his gloves protect his head, and his arms cover his ribs and giblets pretty well.
But your right about Ruiz, we really can't predict how he will turn up, or fight.

Just rewatched ortiz vs martin. turns out my memory was unfair to ol king kong. looked pretty shot, but my memory was him looking reaaaallllly bad, like i remembered him as looking as bad or worse than post covid povetkin, and he wasnt thattt bad.
Still dont think old man ortiz has what it takes to handle ruiz rumbling for more than a couple of rounds, and i think ruiz will know that.... so i kinda expect ruiz to stop him in 3-7 rounds, or ortiz to land massive in the first round or 2.
one masssssive factor im not acounting for is, has ruiz fought any southpaw? non of note thats for sure. Mabey ruiz just walks into strait left after strait left...

ortiz defo has the skills to outbox ruiz, and i expect him to in rounds where he's not hurt or gassed, but damn charles martin was hurting him with jabs and sh!t, that wasnt a good look. ruiz went down with arreola too but those weren't f@cking jabs
it should be ort on points, or ruiz catching up and koing him

Very interesting you give ortiz points a chance. Iv been having a shocker calling fights the last year or so, so my disagreement is probbly an endorcment of your opinion, but fuk i just cant see that at all. If ortizs legs can hold up for 12 rounds of ruiz marching forwards him id be absolutly shocked.
I see ortiz very early, or ruiz early-mid. cant see anything else.

ruiz isnt some energetic aggressor. he can be lazy as f@ck and he walks forward like he's carrying anvils on both legs. if he would put ortiz under constant pressure, it would be another story
most ruiz fights are super slow paced. he can explode with those quick combos when he gets close, but that's like 10 percent of a round with him

It's sorta what makes it interesting though, isn't it?
Who is the most shot, who trained, who will gas, and who gets knocked out first
Re: Andy Ruiz Jr. vs. Luis Ortiz | FOX PPV - September 4, 2022
Jose Valenzuela was prepared to face a former titleholder for the second straight time.
He now faces a rising prospect who is arguably an upgrade in competition.
Boxing Scene has confirmed that Jezreel Corrales has been pulled from his bout with Valenzuela this Sunday after being unable to secure a travel visa from Panama in time to fight. Corrales is replaced by Dominican Republic’s Edwin De Los Santos, who—according to Premier Boxing Champions (PBC) representatives—has been on standby for the past two weeks in anticipation of the development.
Boxing podcaster Broadway Joel—best known as The Voice of Dominican Boxing—was the first to report the development.
De Los Santos (14-1, 13KOs) steps well up in class and in a year where he suffered his lone career defeat. It came in an eight-round split decision to William Foster III on a January 7 ShoBox card in Orlando, Florida. The 22-year-old Dominican southpaw quickly rebounded, blasting out unbeaten Luis Acosta in the second round of a fight that also aired on Showtime’s ShoBox series on March 11 in Deadwood, South Dakota.
The switch leaves Valenzuela to at least face another southpaw, though it is where the similarities end between De Los Santos and Corrales (26-4, 10KOs). De Los Santos boasts a far more fan friendly style, while the 31-year-old Corrales—a former WBA junior lightweight titlist—isn’t shy about slowing down the pace of a fight to a crawl.
It is also easily argued that Corrales is past his best days, which would have produced the threat of providing more of the same for Valenzuela following his latest win. ‘El Rayo’—a training stablemate of unbeaten former two-time super middleweight titlist David Benavidez—is coming off a first-round knockout of badly faded former WBC 130-pound titlist Francisco ‘Bandido’ Vargas on an April 16 Showtime PPV event in Arlington, Texas.
The piece-meal ten-round lightweight contest will open a four-fight Fox Sports Pay-Per-View telecast from Crypto.com Arena. Headlining the show, former unified titlist Andy Ruiz (34-2, 22KOs) faces former two-time title challenger Luis Ortiz (33-2, 28KOs; 2NC) in a scheduled 12-round WBC semifinal title eliminator.

I'm going to make up my mind to order the PPV contingent on Ruiz's weight. He needs to come in under 260 if I'm going to order the PPV.

I was just going to post the same thing.
I want to see how he looks on the scales.
