Tony Luis to Face Derry Matthews for World Championship this Saturday in England; Ismael Barroso now Fighting Ira Terry on CBS in Hinckley, MN Այս ուրբաթ

Lack of time to obtain proper visas has forced the necessity for two of Greg Cohen Promotions’ (GCP) fighters to switch places on short notice for this weekend.

On Շաբաթ, Ապրիլ 18, Cornwall, Ontario’s Tony “Կայծակ” Luis (19-2, 7 Նոկաուտով) will now face UK veteran Derry Matthews (37-9-2, 20 Նոկաուտով) for the Interim WBA Lightweight Championship at the Echo Arena in Matthews’ hometown of Liverpool, Անգլիա, as the main event of a night of boxing presented by Frank Warren’s Queensberry Promotions.

Luis was originally scheduled to face Memphis, Tennessee, վետերան Ira Terry (26-13, 16 Նոկաուտով) in the televised co-feature of the “Առաջնություն Բռնցքամարտի CBS Sports Network” իրադարձություն, presented by Greg Cohen Promotions in association with Adam Wilcock’s Fight Card Promotions and produced by David Schuster’s Winner Take All Productions onՈւրբաթ, Ապրիլ 17, ից Grand Casino Hinckley Հինքլիի, Minnesota.

Unbeaten Venezuelan slugger Ismael Barroso (17-0-2, 16 Նոկաուտով), who was originally scheduled to face Matthews, was unable to obtain the proper visas in time to fight on such short notice in England. He will now take Luis’ place in Hinckley and will take on Terry in an eight-round attraction այս ուրբաթ.

“It worked out well for everyone,” ասել է Greg Cohen. “Tony Luis was high enough in the ratings and ready to fight, so he’s one of the few fighters in the world who could have stepped into this important fight on such short notice. And fortunately, he is a GCP fighter as well, so we made it happen quickly and he is on his way to the UK as we speak. Tony gets his dream shot at a world championship and the fans in Hinckley, and on CBS Sports Network, will get their first look at one of the most fearsome punchers in boxing, Ismael Բարոզուն. So it seems that everyone wins in this unique situation.”
