“You’d expect him to get an even bigger fight or to attempt to get an even bigger name,” Jamaine said to MillCity Boxing about Keyshawn taking a smaller fight.
“But I suppose he wants his get back and he desires to beat him and never have that no contest.”
“Some fighters be doing it,” Ortiz said.
“They’ve one hard fight, take two light fights. One hard fight, take two light fights. That’s the best way you type of stay relevant but last somewhat bit longer at the sport.”
Ortiz also suggested the rematch could turn out to be tougher for Keyshawn than people expect because Albright already has experience against him from their first meeting in October 2023.
“To be honest, I’ll give the slight edge more to Albright,” Ortiz said.
“I do think Keyshawn’s going to win, but I do think Albright goes to do higher than the primary time.
“Being in there the second time with Keyshawn, knowing him somewhat bit, probably stepping into there somewhat bit more comfortable, having the ability to take somewhat bit more risk.”
Ortiz also downplayed the concept that Keyshawn overwhelmed him physically during their fight earlier this 12 months.
“He wasn’t fast, and he wasn’t powerful,” Ortiz said.
“He did all the pieces that we trained for and what we thought he was going to do. I just wasn’t capable of pull it off.
“He had good timing, and I wasn’t capable of adjust or fix any of that.”
“I assumed he was going to be stronger,” Ortiz said.
“He wasn’t stronger.”
The rematch later picked up more attention on Friday after Keyshawn got here in over the contracted 140-pound limit on the weigh-in.
