Ortiz built on his undefeated record and is now 24-0-0 with 22 KOs.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-1\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"4m\">He wants a big fight next and fans have wanted to see him against Ennis for a while. &#8216;Boots&#8217; and Ortiz squared off in the ring following the Lubin fight where Ennis announced himself to the 154 lbs division with a first-round KO win against Uisma Lima.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-2\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"4p\">Ortiz put up an equally dominant display, arguably against a better opponent. Hence, Ortiz vs Ennis would be a massive fight at this point. De La Hoya and Ortiz both reflected on what&#8217;s next following the win against Lubin.<\/p>\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">OMGGG!!!
