Ortiz vs. Hooker: The background
With the lightweight division catching fire as of late and the heavyweight ranks finally enjoying fights as high-profile as their heyday, the welterweight ranks — the highlight of the fight scene for many years thanks to the likes of Floyd Mayweather Jr. and Manny Pacquiao — finds itself with a lot of competition at the forefront of the sport.
With undefeated stars such as Terence Crawford and Errol Spence Jr. holding world titles in the division, a hot prospect could join them in the near future. Ortiz is 16-0 and has yet to be taken the distance by an opponent, however, a sterner test awaits the 22-year-old in Dallas in the form of fellow Texan Hooker, who is a former WBO light-welter champion. If Ortiz wants to join the Spences and Crawfords, victory on Saturday is a must.
