A busload of Rivera’s fans drove five hours from Hartford through a snowstorm, arriving just before Rivera entered the ring. “That means a lot to me,” Rivera smiled as he spoke about his fans. “We’re more than a gym, mes šeima.
I was so used to an amateur style but now I’m a pro. I’m relaxing and picking my punches. Kitas, I want to win the New England title. It’s vacant and I want it!”
This was our first show in New Hampshire and I consider it a success,” co-promoter Chuck Shearnai sakė, “despite some things going against us like tonight’s weather. We’re grateful for the support we received from Hampton, Naujasis Hampšyras, the commission and local businesses. They worked with us and we can’t wait to return.

I was a little nervous with this being my first time in a pro ring,” Kimber admitted after his fight. “I hadn’t been in a ring for 1 ½ years and there was some ring rust. Dabar, I know what I need to good, and I’ll be a lot better next fight. This was my first camp and I’ve learned a lot. I’d like to stay busy, come back in late January, early February.
