They think he wants tomato cans like his last opponent, George Kambosos Jr., so he can hold onto his IBF 140-lb title long enough for a mega-million fight to fall into his lap without him needing to risk losing his belt.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s the perfect fight for Richardson to bring attention to himself by showcasing his talent on Turki Alalshikh\u2019s Ring 6 event, which will have many boxing fans tuning in. For Hitchins to reject the Ortiz fight makes fans wonder who the ideal fighter outside of the big names is that he\u2019ll agree to face.<\/p>\n
Six Wolves Waiting<\/p>\n
If Hitchins wants to gain popularity by fighting on next month\u2019s January 31st card. Turki Alalashikh needs to put his feet to the fire by telling him he must fight one of these wolves:<\/p>\n
Gary Antuanne Russell
\nJamaine Ortiz
\nKeyshawn Davis
\nErnesto Mercado
\nSubriel Matias
\nEmiliano Vargas<\/p>\n
Is it asking too much of Hitchins to fight two or three of those hungry wolves? He doesn\u2019t have to fight the whole bunch, just two or three, and he\u2019s there. He\u2019ll get those fights that he wants to change his lifestyle and put him in a new tax bracket.<\/p>\n
Understandably, Hitchins wants the payday fights that will make him a multi-millionaire, allowing him to move to Beverly Hills and Holmby Hills to live among the rich and famous. But to live among the super-rich, Hitchins has to walk through fire first by beating the fighters on the above list.<\/p>\n
Why Ryan & Haney Won\u2019t Bite<\/p>\n
Devin Haney, Ryan Garcia, and Teofimo will never give him the fight that he\u2019s begging for until he makes a name for himself. His fighting style is too defensive; he doesn\u2019t want to engage, and he tends to move too much for one of those wealthy fighters to pick out.<\/p>\n
