He is being labeled as one of New Jersey top rising prospects in the super middleweight division since signing a promotional contract with KEA Boxing back in 2015.

Danny “Little Mac” McDermott will be completing the triple header main event action when he steps back in the ring as a welterweight. Fighting out of North Bergen, McDermott currently holds a record of 12-5. McDermott recently fought in the United Kingdom and the Philippines twice where he also became the current WBC Asian Boxing Council champion. McDermott said he is very excited to fight again so close to home, as this is his first fight back in the states since 2013.

Heavyweight fights are always entertaining and action packed, so this show will also be featuring Jersey City’s Tyrell Wright. Wright, who is also undefeated with 8 wins will continue his dream of making an impact in the heavyweight division. Wright is currently trained and managed by former boxer Bobby Rooney.

Introduint Promocions LGM

First show, “Punys de la lluita contra l'irlandès”
Dissabte de març 14 at the Jersey City Armory
Jersey City, Nova Jersey (Gener 29, 2015)-UMC Jr. Welter Danny “Little Mac” McDermott ha anunciat avui la formació d'un nou Boxa Empresa Promoció que es basa fora de la seva ciutat natal a Jersey City NJ.
McDermott s'ha associat amb l'empresari local Nick Jayme per formar LGM Promotions
LGM també ha anunciat avui que posarà en el seu primer xou “els punys de la lluita contra l'irlandès” en l'Armory Jersey City a Dissabte 14 de març amb McDermott com a cap de cartell de la targeta en una defensa del títol que va capturar el passat mes de juliol a Gensan City, Filipines.
“Estic molt emocionat de començar aquesta empresa. Launching it on the tenth anniversary of my pro debut makes it that much sweeter. This is something that I have been thinking about for some time now. M'encanta la boxa. It is my life. It just makes a lot of sense for us right now to begin to prepare for a life after boxing and what better way then be able to put on a fight in my own hometown.” dir McDermott.
Sr. Jayme is a longtime friend of the McDermott’s and is former amateur boxer himself. He is an active community servant in the Jersey City area.

“Sempre m'ha agradat la boxa i tinc una passió per l'esport. I came up in the amateurs with Danny and have known him for many years.
“Fa poc vaig tornar a connectar amb la boxa després de fer un esdeveniment amb Miguel Cotto i això és quan em vaig decidir a formar Promocions LGM.”
“Busquem fer 4 o 5 esdeveniments aquest any a la comunitat. I am a big believer in the Hudson County community. LGM is Jersey City based and that’s where we are basing our roots.”
“Març 14 està a punt de celebrar la Desfilada de l'Herència irlandesa. We are working close with the Jersey City Irish Parade committee. They are having their dinner on Març 13. We are doing the fight on Març 14 i després la desfilada és a Març 15. This event is all about celebrating St. Dia de Patrick, va dir el Sr Jayme.”
“Pel costat de la boxa, contractem Rich Komissar (RKO Boxa) to be our Director of Boxing Operations. Rich has a wealth of experience in the sport from on every level. És molt reconfortant tenir un tipus al nostre equip que la gent realment criden de nou” broma Jayme.
Sr. Jayma també va afegir “També vam establir una aliança estratègica amb Mariusz Kolodziej i el seu grup a Mundial de Boxa a North Bergen. Mariusz i Danny es remunten molt de temps. Ell és un gran amic d'aquest esport en més d'un nivell local.
“These first events will be Jersey City ethnic based with family friendly ticket pricing and family friendly concessions,”
“Volem que tota la comunitat per abraçar. We will make it affordable for a guy to bring his kids to the fights and have a few hot dogs with a couple of sodas and maybe a beer or two without breaking the bank” acabat Jayme.
“I’m excited to help. Danny is family. Danny is my guy. Ell sempre va ser i sempre serà. I’m proud of all he has done in the last year or two. He is extremely popular in this part of New Jersey (així com a través del riu a la ciutat de Nova York) so it makes great sense to launch here. Nick Jayme has a great vision on where he wants his company to be in a year or two. His community minded spirit enlightens me. Nick Jayme és un noi solucions. M'agrada això” said Komissar.
“El nostre treball no serà massa difícil. Aquesta part de Nova Jersey té una gran quantitat de clubs de boxa i s'ha associat amb els joves que volen oportunitats. Som aquí per donar-los exactament això” afegida Komissar
The full event will be announced shortly.
