ORANGE, Calif. (Mejju 19, 2015) – Tal ESPN “Il-ġimgħa Tissielet Night” final broadcast features two outstanding fights in the heavyweight and junior middleweight divisions that will decide the 2015 Boxcino Champions.

The double main event features heavyweight talents Donovan Dennis (14-2, 11 Kos) of Davenport, Iowa and Andrey Fedosov (27-3, 22 Kos) of Russia in a 10-round fight to determine the 2015 Boxcino Heavyweight Champion. Dennis-Fedosov will also fight for the WBA Fedelatin u WBO Intercontinental heavyweight titles.

 

The Boxcino Tournament is Promoted by Promozzjonijiet Banner and televised on Tal ESPN “Il-ġimgħa Tissielet Night” (ESPN2 10 p.m. U / 7 p.m. PT). The show nhar il-Ġimgħa is co-promoted through Thompson Boxing Promotions u Promozzjonijiet Banner.

 

The undercard features crafty super bantamweight Isaac Zarate (10-1-1,1 KO) of Los Angeles against Fernando Fuentes (5-4-1, 1 KO) of Hemet, Calif. Outside of the two televised bouts, the 8-round fight between Zarate and Martinez is among the most eagerly anticipated fights of the night.

 

“Zarate is one of the most exciting, young boxers in the 122 lb. diviżjoni,” qal Ken Thompson, president tal Thompson Boxing. “He won’t blow you away with power, but his hand speed and work rate are definitely worth the cost of admission.”

 

“I’m looking forward to a great night of boxing,” qal Artie Pelullo, president of Banner Promotions. “It’s a great card all around, and the Boxcino finals will be fan friendly fights where two new world title contenders will emerge.”

 

Zarate, a southpaw, makes life difficult for opponents by using an unlimited energy supply to launch punches from all sorts of angles. He’s elusive in that he darts in and out of danger spots, which makes landing combinations on him a difficult matter.

 

“I try not to stay in the same spot for too long,” said the 23-year-old Zarate. “By moving and changing the pace, my opponents typically can’t time my movements.”
