Promoter Dmitriy Salita of Salita Promotions wishes to thank the multitude of fans and everyone involved in the great success of his debut “Detroit Brawl” show in Detroit last Saturday, Февруари 6.

“I was very happy with the entire event,” Саид Word. “The fans came out, the fighters fought hard and in that classic venue, it felt like a boxing show from days gone by. I wish to thank everyone from Kronk and especially Javan Hill, as well as Dennis Turner and the staff at the Masonic for all their help. And to the Detroit boxing community in general, who helped get the word out on the show and helped make it such a success.”

Word, who says this was the first of a series of regular shows, says he won’t rest on the success of the first event for long.

“We are looking at doing the second Detroit Brawl in early spring,” рече тој. “It is so apparent that this city loves its boxing and I’m proud to be bringing it to them.”
