Luis Ortiz beats Malik Scott on points for heavyweight belt (The Associated Press)

Cuban boxer Luis Ortiz easily beat Malik Scott for the vacant WBA intercontinental heavyweight title on Saturday. Making his European debut, Ortiz floored the listless Scott several times and won by a unanimous decision: 120-105, 120-106, and 119-106 on the judges’ cards. Scott, whose other two losses were against fellow American Deontay Wilder and Britain’s Dereck Chisora, once held a 35-0 record, and his quick feet, craft, and elusiveness were a credit to his boxing pedigree.
