By Johnny Benz, Doghouse Boxing - The rematch for Victor Ortiz vs. Andre Berto is on.
According to a
report out by ESPN, Ortiz vs. Berto the rematch will go down on Jan. 28 or Feb. 11 on
SHOWTIME.
According to ESPN, Showtime bought the fight for $2.25 million. HBO initially offered $1.75 million and raised its final offer to $2.15 million. In the end, SHOWTIME's higher bid took it.
Lou DiBella, promoter for Berto was quoted by ESPN, stating:
"Showtime's offer was the highest in the marketplace. It's good to know
that they're in the game and that a fight of this quality had interest
from both networks. Competition in the marketplace is a good thing."
Dibella added: "As
Andre Berto's promoter, I am very grateful for the loyalty and
investment HBO made in Berto over the years, and I know Andre is also."
