“We knew there were some issues with Quartey’s visa situation,” ການສົ່ງເສີມການ Keith Veltreກ່າວວ່າ, “so we had Erik Ruiz on hold. It’s unfortunate but things like this happen in boxing and we’re fortunate to have such a quality opponent like Erik as a late replacement. ໃນຄວາມເປັນຈິງ, he’s fought much tougher opponents than Quartey. Hanzel has 18 knockouts ໃນລາວ 23 wins, but Ruiz has never been stopped as a professional. We’re confident that the main event will be equally competitive and that fans will enjoy another great night of ‘Knockout Night at the D” boxing.”
