สวนสาธารณะในเมือง, แคนซัส (สิงหาคม 10, 2017) –
KO Night Boxing LLC and Hartman Arena hosted a private media luncheon today to announce the return of 2016 ชนะเลิศเหรียญทองแดงโอลิมปิก
นิโก้ Hernandez for his third professional fight on เสาร์, กันยายน 23, วัสดุบุหลังคา “KO Boxing คืน:
Step Up!” ที่ฮาร์ทแมนสังเวียนในพาร์คซิตี, แคนซัส.
“KO Boxing คืน: Step Up!” เป็นการนำเสนอของ KO Boxing คืน LLC, ร่วมกับฮาร์ทแมน Arena, Mort’s Cigar Bar and Jimmy Egg.
Wichita-native Hernandez (2-0, 2 คอส) will face the stiffest test of his young pro career, Mexican flyweight ฟรานซิส “นักรบ” Lapizco (8-5, 2 คอส), in the six-round main event.
“I’m very fortunate that my promoter, John Andersen(KO Boxing คืน), has worked hard to make my third pro fight at home,” Hernandez said. “I’m very excited to be able to show boxing at its best.
“My opponent has never been stopped. อย่างชัดเจน, he has more professional experience than me, and I understand he likes putting pressure on his opponent. I want to be the first to stop this guy! I also want the boxing world to know I’m coming for belts. Champions should get ready for Nico Hernandez.”
In his professional debut on March 25th, Hernandez knocked out Patrick Gutierrez ในรอบที่สี่, and this past June 17th at Hartman Arena, the 21-year-old U.S. Olympian stopped previously undefeated Jose Rodriguez in the third round of the main event.
Lapizco, 22, has already defeated an unbeaten opponent, ซีซาร์ Sustaita (3-0), three years ago at Ontario, แคลิฟอร์เนีย. His last fight was this past January at home in Sinaloa, เม็กซิโก, in which Lapizco won a six-round unanimous decision over Jairo Miranda.
“This fight is a step up for Nico against a proven opponent who goes rounds,” Andersen noted. “He has already upset an undefeated fighter. It’s time for Nico to step up, as well as the city of Wichita, in terms of supporting him. This is a major event on September 23ถ that will bring national attention, not only for Nico, but to Wichita.
“We have an opportunity to put Nico, all of Kansas, on the national map in boxing. We have a multi-fight deal to showcase Nico at Hartman Arena. After the September 23ถ แสดง, we’ll announce his final fight of 2017. We need people to turnout September 23ถ at Hartman Arena to continue promoting Nico at home.”
