The pro debut of former United States amateur sensation LeRoy Davila

ATLANTIC CITY, Њу Џерси (Мај 3-, 2016)–Во петокот ноќ, May 27th, a big night of boxing will kick off a holiday weekend at The Claridge in Atlantic City as Rising Promotions will present a terrific card of boxing.

Во главниот настан, It will be about New Jersey bragging rights as Isiah Seldon ќе ги преземе за Еди Едмонд in a bout scheduled for six-rounds.

Во шест-круг ко-функција, one of the most popular fighter’s from the shore area, Светлина тешка категорија Chuck Mussachio will be back in the ring after a 39-month lay off when he takes on Вилис Lockett in a rematch of a bout that that ended in a draw on September 19, 2008.

Mussachio of Wildwood, Њу Џерси има евиденција на 18-3-2 with five knockouts and will be looking to get back to winning ways that made him a contender.

He will be marking his ring return in a familiar town where he has performed 17 пати.

“Сè е одвиваат добро. I am back in the swing of things and getting good sparring three days a week,” said Mussachio. “I started getting the itch again when I was helping Isiah Seldon ready for his fight in March. I am not worried about the layoff. I got that ring rust off in February. That wore off quickly and that motivated me to get back in the room quickly. I have been in the gym the whole time, спаринг. I was in Bernard Hopkins last two camps, so I have been in good shape this whole time.”

Lockett of Takoma Park, Мериленд има рекорд на 14-16-5 со пет капачките.

His record does not tell the story as Lockett has faced the “Whose-Who” of fighters between Super Middleweight and Heavyweight.

Тој има квалитет победи над Tyrone Тејт (5-1), Calvin Riley (1-0), Вили Вилијамс (6-1), Поранешниот светски наслов предизвикувач Лари марки, Joe McCreedy (10-2-1) & Џон Ленокс (13-3). The winner of Lennox was part of Rising Promotions maiden card on December 5, 2015.

Lockett has faced eight undefeated fighters. Lockett will look to break a two-fight losing streak. Во неговата последна рунда, Lockett was disqualified against Jordan Shimmell (19-1) на Февруари 27 во Вашингтон, DC.

“When we fought before,” said Mussachio, “I won that fight. I can’t believe they ruled that a draw. Имам нешто да се докаже, because I took every round in that fight. Looking back, I couldn’t even tell you how he is. He never hit me. I am just going to do what I did last time, but this time, I have to do more.”

Mussachio, who is a guidance counselor by day, isn’t just coming back for one fight. He wants to get back to the status that got him to a 17-1-2 record and came within seconds of becoming USBA Cruiserweight champion before getting stopped by Garrett Wilson in 2011.

“The goal is to take this as far as I can. I have my rhythm back. This is not just one fight. I want to get a big opportunity. I already have the record for that.”

“I feel rejuvenated. I haven’t took a pounding and I still have good legs.”

Mussachio would not have his comeback fight anywhere else and is impressed by the way Rising Boxing Promotions has handled business leading up to the fight.

“I don’t like fighting anywhere else but Atlantic City. This is my 2nd home and it means a lot. After all this time, the interest is still there for me and my fans are coming out. It is like the old days. I want to thank everyone for their continued support of my career which is now going on 12 години. Debbie and Thomas LaManna have been great with Rising Promotions. They are very professional and great to work with.”
