Boom is the boon in Las Vegas<\/strong><\/h2>\n

A collision of TNT knockout power will en-fuze and ignite on August 10th when undefeated knockout sledgehammer Vergil Ortiz Jr. (21-0, 21 KOs) of Grand Prairie, Texas challenges The Master Blaster of Vinitza, Ukraine, Serhii \u201cEl Skinny\u201d Bohachuk (24-1, 23 KOs) for Bohachuk\u2019s interim WBC super welterweight title.<\/p>\n

The KO Might Fight, is presented by Golden Boy Promotions in association with 360 Promotions and TGB Promotions. It is scheduled for 12 rounds and will take place at the Michelob ULTRA Arena at the Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino in Las Vegas, on Saturday, August 10, 2024.<\/p>\n

The exclusive fight night will be broadcast worldwide on DAZN.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is the fight that cements me as one of the best fighters in the top 154,\u201d said Vergil Ortiz, Jr. \u201cThis is also the fight that shows everyone that nothing has changed: I am still one of the best fighters in the world.\u201d<\/p>\n

One of the most dangerous fighters of this era of boxing, undefeated world title challenger Vergil Ortiz Jr. boasts a 100 percent knockout rate. He broke into the super welterweight division with a first-round knockout of Ghanaian warrior Fredrick Lawson on January 6 and followed it up with a first-round knockout of Thomas Dulorme on April 27.<\/p>\n

Hailing from Grand Prairie, Texas, his 21-knockout streak, began since his professional debut in 2016 and has made some of the toughest contenders in the world succumb and surrender to his tremendous power, including Antonio \u201cRelentless\u201d Orozco, Brad \u201cKing\u201d Solomon , Maurice \u201cMighty Mo\u201d Hooker and Michael McKinson.<\/p>\n

\u201cI have fought hard to win the WBC interim world title and now I look to defend it to achieve my goal of becoming world champion,\u201d proclaimed and exclaimed Serhii Bohachuk. \u201cI know Vergil Ortiz, is a very dangerous competitor, but on August 10 I will show that I am the best in the division.\u201d<\/p>\n

Serhii Bohachuk\u2019s knockout resume speaks for itself. His courage and determination gave him the opportunity of a lifetime to face Brian \u201c\u201dBulldozer\u2019\u2019 Mendoza for the WBC Interim World Super Welterweight Championship on March 30.<\/p>\n

The best performance of Bohachuk\u2019s career to date, he scored a wide decision victory.
\nThe highly decorated Ukrainian fighter\u2019s only blemish comes from an eight-round TKO he suffered against Brandon Adams in March 2021.<\/p>\n

\u201cTalking about bombs at the distance\u2026 with 44 knockouts in 45 wins between Vergil and Bohachuk, there is no way this fight is going the distance,\u201d said Golden Boy Promotions president and CEO Oscar De La Hoya. \u201cGolden Boy doesn\u2019t just make champions, we make stars, and when Vergil emerges victorious, he will be boxing\u2019s next superstar.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cSerhii has been through a lot, enduring the invasion of his country while he waited for his visa to return to the United States,\u201d said 360 Promotions founder and CEO Tom Loeffler. \u201cHe received special permission as a professional athlete to continue his boxing career. He won the WBC interim world title and now hopes to defend it. Vergil Ortiz is a very dangerous opponent, but nothing will stop Serhii from emerging victorious.\u201d<\/p>\n
