In het main event, Thomas LaManna neemt Kendal Mena in a eight round welterweight bout.
Davis of nearby Mays Landing, New Jersey is not the typical fighter who has dreams of winning a world heavyweight title, but he has bigger plans to help mold the youth of the Jersey Shore area as being a role model.

When getting the itch to play football again, Davis bagged baseball and began playing football at Hudson Valley College in upstate New York.
After a few years of figuring out his next move, Davis took up boxing.

After eight amateur fights (record of 5-3), Davis turned professional by fighting a four round draw with Willie Harvey on August 15, 2015.
Davis got into the win column with a 26 second knockout over Santario Holdbrooks on 5 december at The Claridge.
“Op dit moment, I am getting by with my natural athletic ability. I do not know all of the ins and outs of boxing, but I have toughness and have been learning on the job,” Said Davis.
There has been a lot of improvement since I have started
In Morley, he is facing a durable guy, that has gone the distance in his first two outings.
I just know he is shorter and heavier then me. He is from Philadelphia, so that alone, I know he is a tough guy.
Davis is even more honest when it comes to his ceiling as a fighter.
My goal is to fight as long as the sport wants me. I want to have fights that will build my resume and give me the credibility to become a trainer for all athletes. I would like to instill what I know and my experiences with baseball, football and now boxing and become an all-around trainer and role model. There are people needed in the community that should be mentoring kids coming up and I feel that I can be that guy around here.
I want to thank my supporters. I am humbled that they spend their hard earned money to come see fight, and I am so appreciative of that.

ATLANTIC CITY, NJ (Maart 15, 2016)–Deze zaterdag nacht bij The Claridge Hotel in Atlantic City, Long Island based welterweight Tommy Rainone makes his debut on the boardwalk when he battles Maurice Chalmers in a eight round bout in a featured undercard bout of a 11-bout card promoted by Rising Promotions and Vincent M.Ponte’s Gulfstream Promotions.
In het main event, Thomas LaManna neemt Kendal Mena in a eight round welterweight bout.
Rainone has a record of 24-7-1 with with five knockouts has long been a fan favorite in the Empire state, and the fight with Chalmers will fulfill a venue that has been on the 36 year-old’s bucket list.
I have fought in Madison Square Garden, Yankee Stadium, The Legendary Blue Horizon and Las Vegas. I have been wanting to fight in Atlantic City for a long time and Saturday it finally happens,” said Rainone.
What makes Rainone’s career even more fascinating is that he works a full-time job overnight working for Hilton Hotels in the accounting the department.
That makes for long days, working until the early morning, getting just a few hours of sleep and then going to the gym before his overnight shift.
I have not had a day off in seven weeks, but I will be ready to go op zaterdag nacht. I have had pretty good training and sparring. Now I am just maintaining my weight
In Chalmers, he is facing a veteran who has a record of 14-12-1 met acht knockouts. Chalmers has knocked off three undefeated fighters, but Rainone is confident that his skills and preparation will be enough to get his hand raised.
I have seen him once in person. He defeated an undefeated guy and he was very aggressive that night. I have seen other fight’s where he sits back and is a counter puncher. I prepare for anything.
Since turning professional in 2006, Rainone has been an instant fan favorite, and he feels he owes a lot of support to the many supporters who have stuck by him through his whole career.
Without a fan base, you don’t get fights. I will have 100 or so fans down in Atlantic City. I owe everything to them.
Rainone believes his popularity is due large in part to him being just aneveryday guyand his fans can relate to him.
I always put on a good fight, but I am relate able. After the fights, I hang out with everybody. I am humble and I show the fans how much I appreciate him.
In zijn laatste gevecht, Rainone took one of the step up fights that could have set him up for a major opportunity when he took on former junior middleweight champion Ishe Smith.
Rainone came up just short in that fight, but Rainone wanted to test himself against the former world champion.
That fight was a tall order. Ishe is the bigger man and a former world champion. I am not a junior middleweight. I tried very hard and I knew if I had won that fought, I would have been ranked in the top-ten.
Rainone is only planning to fight another couple of years and he still has the goals of every fighter, but he is taking his career fight by fight.
The goal is one fight at a time. I am excited to fight in Atlantic City. I want to fight at Barclays Center and again in Madison Square Square Garden as well fighting for a title back in Atlantic City.
I have done this the hard way throughout my career. I do not know who has done it the way I have. I have done this on my own without any alliance or any promoter and I am very proud what I have accomplished and I still have more to do.
Tickets voor de March 19th fight card are $50 GA, $75 Stage (very few remaining)& $125 VIP (UITVERKOCHT) (Stands van 5 available for $500—UITVERKOCHT) and are available at RisingBoxingPromotions.com or 609-487-4444.
