We posthumously inducted Johnny McCoy and honored are award winners, Michael Spinks and Fitz Vanderpool. Hall of Famer referee стив Smoger gave a wonderful speech. Each of these great men were so pleasant and they gladly signed hundreds of autographs and posed for so many pictures. These three humble men have my sincere respect.
“В събота, September 17th, we took the boxers along with Steve Smoger to a local radio station where they were interviewed on air. We also took them to one of Rochester’s super gyms, където Willie Monroe, Jr. trains. We showed them many important sites within the city.

Васкес, Jr. срещу. Основното събитие в Лопес е представено съвместно с Matias Entertainment и спонсорирано от Best Alarms и Municipio de San Juan.
33-годишният Лопес (34-5, 31 Нокаута), сражавайки се от Кагуас, Puerto Rico, е бивша Световна боксова организация (WBO) световна шампионка в супер полутежка и полутежка категория. От 2008 към 2010, “Juanma” беше един от най-добрите 4-килограмови бойци в света, но той не се е бил след две годининасочвайки се към дългоочакваната си конфронтация със своя сънародник Васкес, Jr.
“Все още мисля, че ми е останало много в резервоара,” Лопес уверено каза от тренировъчния си лагер в Пуерто Рика. “Това е първата битка в кариерата ми, която чувствам, че дължа на феновете заради историята зад нея. Не мисля, че ще има ръжда, защото тренирам много, месеци и съм работил във фитнеса усилено. Може би пъргавината, която имах преди четири или пет години, не е съвсем същата, вярно, но в същото време съм по-зрял и много по-спокоен и по-интелигентен на ринга. Определено чувствам, че съм по-добър боец от всякога.”
Васкес, Jr. (24-6-1, 19 Нокаута), син на великия трикратен световен шампион в дивизията Вилфредо Васкес, се бие от Bayamón, чийто най-известен син по бокс е закъснял Hall of Famer Хектор “Macho” Камачо. Васкес стана вакантният световен шампион на WBO в супер луксозна категория през 2010, нокаутиране на непобедени преди Marvin Sonsona (14-0-1) в четвъртия кръг.
“Мисля, че опонентът ми е много упорит боец и човек, който ще направи всичко, за да постигне целите си, въпреки че това ще го накара да се държи неправилно,” Добави Лопес. “Мисля, че ще бъде много агресивна битка, по-скоро сбиване, и съм сигурен, че в нощта на битката ще бъда по-силният боец. Аз ще го доминирам, кръг по кръг, и в първия момент имам възможност да отида за убийството, Ще го притисна и няма да спра, докато не нокаутирам.”
