Philadelphia, PA (Mei 17, 2017) – Lichtgewicht Carlos Rosario is ready for his headlining appearance this vrijdag nacht when he takes on Josh Davis in a bout scheduled for eight-rounds at the 2300 Arena in South Philadelphia.
De show wordt bevorderd door King's Promotions. (1st bout 6:30 PM; Doors 6 PM)
Rosario van Pennsauken, New Jersey, heeft een record van 7-1 met vier knockouts, and has won seven consecutive since dropping his pro debut.  “Alles gaat goed. I am just winding down, losing the last couple of pounds , and I will be ready op vrijdag, said Rosario op dinsdag nacht.
In Davis, he is fighting his toughest opponent, maar 26 year-old Rosario is ready for for whatever the Washington, DC native will bring.
“Even though he has an impressive record (10-1, 4 KO's), I do not know a lot about him. His record is actually better then mine. I am fighting at home but I still feel that I am the underdog. I think this is a fight that could go all eight-rounds, and I am looking forward to that as I have never gone that distance.”
Rozenkrans, who has won seven consecutive fights has been slowly moving up the card and now finds himself in the main event.
“That has not hit me yet that I am the main event fighter. I just continue to fight and my team has done a good job of finding me the right fights. I am gaining more confidence with each fight and my opponents continue to get better.”
Rosario has been in the gym since age 10 but did not start to competing until he was 18. He then embarked on a 28 fight amateur career.
The full-time corrections officer is taking his boxing career one step at a time, but he is seeing improvement in every fight.
“Zolang ik blijf winnen, and stay consistent, I can maybe fight for a minor title this year.”
“I hope the fans come out. I have never been in a bad fight. Sometimes it’s not about winning. I want the fans to say that I am one of their favorite fighters to watch.”
