Tony Luis to Face Derry Matthews for World Championship this Saturday in England; Ismael Barroso now Fighting Ira Terry on CBS 在欣克利, MN 这个星期五

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.

上 星期六, 四月 18, 康沃尔, Ontario’s Tony “闪电” 路易斯 (19-2, 7 科斯) will now face UK veteran Derry Matthews (37-9-2, 20 科斯) for the Interim WBA Lightweight Championship at the Echo Arena in Matthews’ hometown of Liverpool, 英国, as the main event of a night of boxing presented by Frank Warren’s Queensberry Promotions.

Luis was originally scheduled to face 孟菲斯, 田纳西, 老将特里艾拉 (26-13, 16 科斯) in the televised co-feature of the “拳击锦标赛在CBS体育网” 事件, presented by Greg Cohen Promotions in association with Adam Wilcock’s Fight Card Promotions and produced by David Schuster’s Winner Take All Productions on星期五, 四月 17, 从大赌场欣克利在欣克利, 明尼苏达州.

Unbeaten Venezuelan slugger Ismael Barroso (17-0-2, 16 科斯), 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 这个星期五.

“It worked out well for everyone,” 格雷格说，科恩. “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, 伊斯梅尔·巴罗佐. So it seems that everyone wins in this unique situation.”
