Murphys Boxing is proud to announce that the debut event in their new partnership with UFC ต่อสู้ผ่าน จะเกิดขึ้นใน วันศุกร์, พฤษภาคม 10, 2019 ในสปริงฟิลด์, Massachusetts at เอ็มจีเอ็สปริงฟิลด์.
ในเหตุการณ์, ไม่พ่ายแพ้ NABA Super Featherweight Champion, อับราฮัมโนวา(14-0, 10 คอส) will return in a 10 round super featherweight bout against an opponent to be announced.
โนวา, who hails from nearby Albany, นิวยอร์ก, recently entered the WBA’s Top 10 Rankings and will be making his highly anticipated 2019 debut under the Murphys Boxing banner. After an amateur career that saw ‘Super’ go 167-11 and win multiple national titles, Nova has been on the fast track as a professional having fought an unheard of 11 times in the past two years.
“I truly feel I am ready to take on anyone in the Top 10.”, explains the confident young fighter who just celebrated his 25th birthday in January.
“I hope to be in position for a mandatory shot at the WBA world title by the end of the year. I am staying focused, having a great training camp and I intend to make a statement to the rest of the division on May 10th.”
In dual co-features, two undefeated boxers from the Murphys Boxing stable will see action on the card that will stream live exclusively on UFC Fight Pass, the world’s largest subscription service for combat sports.
NABF Jr. Featherweight Champion, William Foster III (9-0, 6 คอส), who fought 5 ครั้งใน 2018, will enter the ring for the second time this year against an opponent to be named in a 6 round junior featherweight bout. เพียง 25 ปี, the New Haven, Connecticut resident, whose older brother is Murphys Boxing’s own undefeated NABA แชมป์มวยรุ่นไลท์, ชาร์ลส์ฟอสเตอร์, is fast becoming one of New England’s most talked about prospects displaying the rare combination of power and speed only seen in elite level fighters.
Power punching prospect, คาร์ลอ Gongora (15-0, 12 คอส) will take on Argentina’s Damien Ezequiel Bonelli (23-6, 20 คอส) in an 8 round middleweight bout. The 2x Olympian from Ecuador won the WBC South American Middleweight Title this past February in his native country against then undefeated Jesus Aviles with a highlight reel KO.
Gongora, who is on the cusp of a world ranking, is in talks for his national television debut this summer and is hoping a big win against a fellow power puncher like Bonelli will seal the deal.
In keeping with the event’s international spirit, Murphys Boxing latest signing, Luis Arcon Diaz (6-0, 6 คอส), an undefeated โอลิมเปีย from Venezuela will return to action against Argentina’s Jose Aubel (8-3, 7 คอส) ใน 6 round welterweight bout. Diaz who made his east coast debut last month against Zach Ramsey, looked sensational, dropping the usually durable veteran multiple times before scoring a second round stoppage to continue his KO streak.
Representing the Boston area, เจมส์ Perella (2-0, 2 คอส), who turned professional last month on Murphys Boxing’s เซนต์. Patrick’s Day Clash and followed up his knockout debut just two weeks later on Murphy’s Mayhem at Melrose บัตร, will look to make it 3 straight KOs when he takes on an opponent to be named in a 4 round welterweight bout.
Rounding out the card will be two of Springfield’s own, มีน้ำหนักเบา, Calixto Cruz (1-0) และนักมวยปล้ำ DJ Whitley (4-1-1) who will both appear in separate 4 round contests against opponents to be named.
