Vergil Ortiz Jr. will defend his WBO International Welterweight Title against a challenge from Egidijus Kavaliauskas tonight at the Ford Center in Frisco, Texas and we have all the details on how you can watch Ortiz vs Kavaliauskas online.

The 23-year-old Texan Virgil Ortiz Jr. made his professional debut back in 2016 and in the time since, he has won every single fight he's been in. In total, Ortiz has won 17 fights by knockout so far in his career and a win tonight would get him closer to joining Errol Spence, Terence Crawford and Manny Pacquiao at the top of the welterweight division.

Back in 2019, Ortiz defeated Mexico's Antonio Orozco to win the vacant WBA Gold Welterweight Title which he successfully defended against challenges from both Brad Solomon and Samuel Vargas. Last year though, in a fight against Maurice Hooker, Ortiz won the vacant WBO International Welterweight Title with a TKO in round seven and tonight he'll have to defend this title.

The 33-year-old Lithuanian boxer Egidijus "Mean Machine" Kavaliauskas on the other hand is going into tonight's fight with a bit more experience under his belt. In fact, he represented his country at both the 2008 and 2012 Olympic Games and won a bronze medal at the 2011 World Championships. Kavaliauskas has 24 professional fights under his belt with 22 wins, 18 wins by knockout, one loss and one draw.

Will Ortiz be able to defeat Kavaliauskas and continue on to fight for a world title or will the Mean Machine tarnish his perfect record?
