Vergil Ortiz's zero is not the only one on the line this weekend, his opponet Michael McKinson will put his undefeated record on the line in a fight that will be broadcast live across the world on DAZN.
With a 22-0 (2 KOs) record, McKinson acknowledged that he understands the reasons why he is a huge underdog, but said this fight is the one to earn the place he believes he deserves.
"I'm a fighter who doesn't know how to lose, doesn't know what it means. I'm very proud of that and Vergil hasn't faced anyone like me. Undefeated fighters we are hungry, we are brave. But I'm built different, I can go to the opponents' house and fight these young hungry guys and take their undefeateds," McKinson told a media roundtable.
"A win over Vergil would change my life, everyone around me. It would change everything. Nothing has ever been given to me, nothing has ever been handed to me on a plate.
"A win over Vergil would change everything and so for me there is no other focus, I don't look beyond that because this is like my world championship fight."
