Ortiz vs Martin Results

Welcome to the live results blog of the Luiz Ortiz vs Charles Martin FOX PBC All Heavyweight PPV on January 1, 2022.

Former IBF Heavyweight Champion Charles Martin is trying to get another shot ever since losing it to Anthony Joshua in 2016. He has since gone 5-1 which includes a loss to Adam Kownacki that derailed his bid for a title rematch. A win here would set him up as the #1 contender for the IBF World title. Although, he remains inactive since February 2020 and might be rusty on return after a long time.

Luiz Ortiz will also be clamouring to gain another title shot as he has failed in two title bids against former WBC World Champion Deontay Wilder. Ortiz has fought once since his second loss to Wilder. That bout lasted just 45 seconds as he knocked out Alexander Flores.

Who will emerge as the new #1 contender for the title. Join us as we bring the round-by-round and play-by-play updates from Luiz Ortiz vs Charles Martin FOX PBC PPV and results from the undercard.
