Former world champion Victor Ortiz will return to the ring on Thursday night when he takes on fellow southpaw opponent Luis Collazo in New York.
Ortiz said, “We’re so ready, we’ve had the best sparring partners and we’re ready to get in the ring. Training camp was really good.
[On experiencing “ring rust”] “Absolutely not, I’m completely 100 percent confident. I have no ring rust whatsoever.
“I’m not at all concerned about my jaw, I feel great and I can’t wait to get in the ring.
“This is my first time fighting in Brooklyn and I’m excited. I don’t have any words to say, nothing bad, nothing good. I’m here for the victory.”
