Парк Цити, Канзас (Август 10, 2017) –
KO Night Boxing LLC and Hartman Arena hosted a private media luncheon today to announce the return of 2016 освајач бронзане олимпијске медаље
Нико Ернандес for his third professional fight on Субота, Септембар 23, ХЕАДЛИНИНГ “КО ноћ Бокс: Степ Уп!” у Хартман Арена у Парк Цити, Канзас.
“КО ноћ Бокс: Степ Уп!” је презентација КО Нигхт Бокс ЛЛЦ., у сарадњи са Хартман Арена, Mort’s Cigar Bar and Jimmy Egg.
Wichita-native Hernandez (2-0, 2 КОс) will face the stiffest test of his young pro career, Mexican flyweight Франциско “Ратник” Lapizco (8-5, 2 КОс), in the six-round main event.
“I’m very fortunate that my promoter, John Andersen(КО ноћ Бокс), has worked hard to make my third pro fight at home,” Hernandez said. “I’m very excited to be able to show boxing at its best.
“My opponent has never been stopped. Очигледно, he has more professional experience than me, and I understand he likes putting pressure on his opponent. I want to be the first to stop this guy! I also want the boxing world to know I’m coming for belts. Champions should get ready for Nico Hernandez.”
In his professional debut on March 25тх, Hernandez knocked out Patrick Gutierrez у четвртом колу, and this past June 17тх at Hartman Arena, the 21-year-old U.S. Olympian stopped previously undefeated Jose Rodriguez in the third round of the main event.
Lapizco, 22, has already defeated an unbeaten opponent, Cesar Sustaita (3-0), three years ago at Ontario, Калифорнија. His last fight was this past January at home in Sinaloa, Мексико, in which Lapizco won a six-round unanimous decision over Jairo Miranda.
“This fight is a step up for Nico against a proven opponent who goes rounds,” Andersen noted. “He has already upset an undefeated fighter. It’s time for Nico to step up, as well as the city of Wichita, in terms of supporting him. This is a major event on September 23рд that will bring national attention, not only for Nico, but to Wichita.
“We have an opportunity to put Nico, all of Kansas, on the national map in boxing. We have a multi-fight deal to showcase Nico at Hartman Arena. After the September 23рд шоу, we’ll announce his final fight of 2017. We need people to turnout September 23рд at Hartman Arena to continue promoting Nico at home.”
