First Fight Under the GCP Promotional Banner a Smashing Success!
Last Saturday, Lub yim hli ntuj 8, lightweight contender “Rock Hard Mighty” Mason Menard (30-1, 22 KO's) made his debut fighting under the Greg Cohen Promotions banner a memorable one by knocking out veteran Jesus Lule with one punch in the first round.
Fighting for the first time in over a year, in the co-main event of an event entitled “Summer Slugfest II” at the Evangeline Downs Casino in his home state of Opelousas, Louisiana, Menard caught Florida’s Lule with a huge left hook and that was it.
The impressive stoppage was Menard’s 28th consecutive victory.
Lule, who had fought to a draw with 7-0 Antonio Dubose in his previous fight, was no match for the world-class skills of Menard. “Mason was a big acquisition for us andhmo no he fought like it,” said promoter Greg Cohen. “He’s been fighting mostly close to home but hmo no it was once again apparent that he’s a talent on the world level. I am happy to have him back in the ring and scoring impressive victories and will be looking to move him up the lightweight ladder at a steady pace.”
The event was a complete sell-out for promoter Chad Broussard and his Boxncar Promotions.
“Chad Broussard is an absolute pleasure to work with,” continue Cohen. “He put the event together and it was truly a world-class show. We look forward to working with him again.”
