Chester, PA (Avril 24, 2015)–Lannwit demen!!, Avril 25, boksè retounen nan Harrahs Philadelphia with a terrific card promoted by King’s Promotions and XFE.



Nan evènman an prensipal, undefeated lejè Oma Douglas will see action in an six-round bout when he now fights former world title challenger Daniel Attah (28-19-1, 11 KO nan) nan Washington, D.C.

In one of the anticipated undercard bouts, undefeated lejè Angel OCASIO (7-0-2, 2 KO nan) will take on tough veteran Justin Johnson nan yon bout pwograme pou sis jij.

It was just over two years ago when Ocasio, considered a rising prospect in Philadelphia, was last in the ring as he stopped Esteban Rodriguez in two rounds on December 8, 2012.

I took the time off and found the lord and got married,”di nan 25 year-old Ocasio.

It was a much needed time off. I helped me realize that there are more important things then to just be a boxer. I know there that there other things as boxing is just temporarily. If boxing wasn’t here, I would still be the same guy. ”

Ocasio knows that he has a talent in the ring and after that hiatus, he didn’t find much problem getting back into the swing of things.

The training aspect was not that difficult. I am good with weight and the running was good. I guess the only thing that needed time was my timing. But i got in great work with (undefeated lejè) Milton Santiago Jr. and it came back nicely.

Ocasio didn’t pick an easy customer for his comeback opponent in Johnson. Johnson’s record reads just 6-7-4 but he has wins over four undefeated prospects plus respect Philly fighter Hasan Young.

Justin is tough. He defeated four undefeated fighters and I am sure he prepares well. Just by fighting a guy with that kind of record does not win fights. He is an experienced fighter so I know it will be a good fight.

I look to be very active for the rest of the year. I am looking for five total fights in 2015. Maybe two more six-round bouts and my goal is to be fighting eight round fights by the end of the year. I think I am about eight fights away from being one of those television fights that will get me to the top level.

The well-spoken Ocasio is emphatic that despite his time away, he will soon be a big name in the sport.

“Se mwen menm ki tounen. I am coming for what’s mine. The people who have been doubting me for a long time can still get on and join the team!”
