It's a brand new month and a brand new preview edition of the Big Fight Weekend podcast as Virgil Ortiz returns to the ring in Fort Worth, Texas and Michael Conlan of Ireland does the same. Host TJ Rives and Dan Rafael insider of BigFightWeekend.com are back to go over it all starting first with some news. That includes, the sensational story that Dan broke that legendary, long time promoter Don King has allegedly failed to pay British heavyweight Daniel Dubois for his "WBA regular title" KO win over American Trevor Bryan back in June. Dan found out first that Dubois has sued King in Broward County, Florida Court because he says King is withholding his purse from the fight. This adds to a long list of fighters that have claimed for almost 40 years that King continues to pull shenanigans with their money for their fights. Next ,the guys discuss Regis Prograis being substituted for Jose Ramirez for the vacant WBA 140 lb. title fight coming later this year with Jose Zepeda. The former WBA Junior Welterweight champion Prograis is looking to get a belt back and have a shot at Scotland's Josh Taylor who owns two of the other junior welterweight titles and defeated Prograis in October of 2019. Then, the guys begin the previews with the Ortiz fight headlining the Golden Boy Promotions show in Texas, as he takes on England's Michael McKinson. Ortiz who's been on a long medical layoff due to a blood disorder will be back looking for a 19th consecutive win by KO to start his career. Can McKinson stand up to Ortiz's power? TJ and Dan discuss. And finally, they go over Conlan's return after having been brutally knocked out by England's Leigh Wood earlier this year. That stopped Conlan's meteoric rise towards a featherweight World title, as he had been 20 - 0. Now he's in with veteran Colombian Miguel Marriaga in a scheduled 10 rounder trying to reestablish himself. Will Conlan get the win or could Marriaga pose a real threat?
