The new year will begin with a heavyweight bang later tonight (Sat., Jan. 1, 2022) live on FOX PPV/FITE TV from inside Seminole Hard Rock and Hotel Casino in Hollywood, Fla., as former WBC heavyweight title challenger Luis Ortiz meets veteran knockout artist Charles Martin in the main event.
Ortiz, who has only lost to Deontay Wilder in his professional career, is coming off a blistering first-round knockout win over Alexander Flores. However, that happened back in Nov. 2020 so Ortiz will be trying to fight through some ring rust later tonight. Martin, on the other hand, will put his three-fight win streak on the line as he tries to climb the heavyweight ladder and lock down a shot at the IBF heavyweight title.
In addition to the Ortiz vs, Martin headliner, the PPV card will feature four other heavyweight matchups, including the return of Cuban prospect Frank Sanchez. Check out the full main card lineup below:
- Heavyweight: Luis Ortiz (32-2, 27 KO) vs Charles Martin (28-2-1, 25 KO)
- Heavyweight: Frank Sanchez (19-0, 13 KO) vs Christian Hammer (26-8, 16 KO)
- Heavyweight: Jonnie Rice (14-6-1, 10 KO) vs Michael Coffie (12-1, 9 KO)
- Heavyweight: Gerald Washington (20-4-1, 13 KO) vs Ali Eren Demirezen (14-1, 11 KO)
- Heavyweight: Viktor Faust (8-0, 6 KO) vs Iago Kiladze (27-5-1, 19 KO)
