Hitz, Jimenez and Ortuz are 'On The Ropes' with Jenna Jay PhilBoxing.com Fri, 15 Feb 2013 Chicago promoter Bobby Hitz of Hitz Boxing and undefeated prospects Mike "Hollywood" Jimenez (9-0, 6 KOs) and Dimar "Strongman" Ortuz (7-0, 5 KOs) appeared on a very special edition of "On The Ropes" Boxing Radio with Jenna Jay this week. The trio appeared to discuss this Friday's Hitz Boxing "Fight Night at the Horseshoe" event at the Horseshoe Casino in Hammond, Indiana. The night's intriguing main event features a rematch between Chicago (via Lithuania) middleweight Donatas Bondorovas (16-3-1, 5 KOs) and Evansville, Indiana's "King" David Thomas (10-3-2, 8 KOs). Cruiserweight Ortuz will go six rounds against Memphis southpaw Grover Young (7-8-1, 4 KOs), while super middleweight "Hollywood" Jimenez will take on local veteran Michael Walker (19-17-3, 12 KOs).
