Vergil Ortiz camp refuts Eddie Hearn’s Ennis Fighting Announcement
Vergil’s father Ortiz Jr., Vergil Sr., refuts what Matchroom Champion Eddie Hearn says he had “signed Jaron Ennis to fight Vergil Ortiz” in 2026.
JR Ortiz Camp denies Jaron Ennis Bout
Vergil’s father posted on X less than an hour ago he has not “Heared anything.”
Why on earth would Hearn tell the media that he signed Ortiz Jr to fight his guy, ‘Boots’ Ennis, for 2026? Is it to get the weight off himself to show shoes that he is trying to do something to be useful? Telling the media that fighting with Vergil JR is signed for next year is one way to get the heat off.
Ennis would think naive for himself, ‘My champion, Hearn, is a real go-getter. I’m glad I reshaped for another hut with Matchroom. ‘
Does Ennis even want the fighting? With the mention of it wanted two tunes to become comfortable with section 154 lbs, it does not seem credible that it would sign for a dangerous battle against Vergil Jr.

I didn’t know Eddie Hearn was Vergils MGR and I told Vergil when he fought. I haven’t heard anything and it’s not a vergil hey you fight my man when I want. That shit has sailed twice. Vergil is on his own path no matter who anyone says. No waiting for anyone anymore. https://t.co/qtmqjq0f2u
No one has come to us for the 3rd time for that fight. We are still about 2025 not 2026 or 2027. As they have done what is best for them. We will move forward with our schedule no matter who says.
