Here is what the fighter said Thursday:

Luis Ortiz: “I have worked very hard for this fight and it’s a great opportunity and I’m not going to waste it. I have seen one or two of Kayode’s fights and I am prepared. You will see my preparation materialize in the ring on Thursday night. Kayode is a trash talker and I take that as a sign of weakness. A lot of heavyweight fighters are in Cuba in amateur competitions, but I take pride in knowing that I am a professional Cuban heavyweight. I am going to continue working and doing my part and fight whoever steps up. I am the next heavyweight champion. I am going to keep doing my part so I can get there. When I need to be a power puncher, I will do it. When I need to box, I will do it. When I need to be defensive, I will do it. When I need to attack and get the job done, I will do it. If there is a specific name for all of those styles – then that is the kind of fighter I am.”

 

Luis Ortiz destroyed Lateef Kayode in a first-round knockout victory to claim a vacant interim heavyweight belt Thursday night at the Hard Rock Hotel and Casino.
