Tonight at 8 pm ET on DAZN, Vergil Ortiz Jr puts his perfect pro record on the line in a welterweight main event against tough contender Egidijus “Mean Machine” Kavaliauskas, plus three more fights on the main card.
Wil Esco will be on the call, with round-by-round updates for the main event, plus highlights and results for everything else in this stream:
The 23-year-old Ortiz has mostly blitzed his way through the competition so far as a pro, but Kavaliauskas is a former title challenger and no easy out. Ortiz is looking to force his way into a title fight sooner than later — perhaps against Terence “Bud” Crawford, since Ortiz has a minor WBO belt — and Kavaliauskas is the type of opponent he needs to beat to do that.
