After 28-month layoff, undefeated lightweight Angel Ocasio returns this Saturday at Harrahs Philadelphia

Omar Douglas takes on former world title challenger Daniel Attah in main event plus undefeated, Christopher Brooker, Earl Newman, Stephan Shaw, Adam Kownacki, Stephen Fulton, Jovontae Starks og Raynell Williams
Chester, PA (April 24, 2015)–I MORGEN AFTEN!!, April 25, boksning vender tilbage til Harrahs Philadelphia with a terrific card promoted by King’s Promotions and XFE.



I main event, ubesejret letvægts Omar Douglas will see action in an six-round bout when he now fights former world title challenger Daniel Attah (28-19-1, 11 KO s) Washington, D.C.

In one of the anticipated undercard bouts, ubesejret letvægts Angel Ocasio (7-0-2, 2 KO s) will take on tough veteran Justin Johnson i en kamp planlagt til seks runder.

It was just over two years ago when Ocasio, considered a rising prospect in Philadelphia, was last in the ring as he stopped Esteban Rodriguez in two rounds on December 8, 2012.

I took the time off and found the lord and got married,”sagde 25 year-old Ocasio.

It was a much needed time off. I helped me realize that there are more important things then to just be a boxer. I know there that there other things as boxing is just temporarily. If boxing wasn’t here, I would still be the same guy. ”

Ocasio knows that he has a talent in the ring and after that hiatus, he didn’t find much problem getting back into the swing of things.

The training aspect was not that difficult. I am good with weight and the running was good. I guess the only thing that needed time was my timing. But i got in great work with (ubesejret letvægts) Milton Santiago Jr. and it came back nicely.

Ocasio didn’t pick an easy customer for his comeback opponent in Johnson. Johnson’s record reads just 6-7-4 but he has wins over four undefeated prospects plus respect Philly fighter Hasan Young.

Justin is tough. He defeated four undefeated fighters and I am sure he prepares well. Just by fighting a guy with that kind of record does not win fights. He is an experienced fighter so I know it will be a good fight.

I look to be very active for the rest of the year. I am looking for five total fights in 2015. Maybe two more six-round bouts and my goal is to be fighting eight round fights by the end of the year. I think I am about eight fights away from being one of those television fights that will get me to the top level.

The well-spoken Ocasio is emphatic that despite his time away, he will soon be a big name in the sport.

“Jeg er tilbage. I am coming for what’s mine. The people who have been doubting me for a long time can still get on and join the team!”

I en otte-round Bout, Javonte Starks (11-0, 7 KO s) af Minneapolis, MN. vil tage Jeremiah Wiggins (10-3-1, 5 KO s) af Newport News, VA i en weltervægt kamp..

Training has gone real well. I have been doing a lot of roadwork and I feel good,” said the 20-year old Davis.

In Garcia, he is facing a tested fighter who has been in the ring with eleven undefeated fighters including Michael Anderson. Jermell Charlo, Charles Hatley, Lanard Lane, Jonel Tapia, Yordenis Ugás, Glen Tapia, Daniel Rosario and in his last bout when he was stopped in five rounds

I don’t know too much about him other than he has about 20 fights and he is six-feet tall.

After a great amateur career, Davis is continuing to learn and grow into the professional ranks.

I have been learning patience, timing and ring generalship. I am getting comfortable without using the headgear and fighting with the smaller gloves and creating my identity as a fighter.

This will be the second consecutive fight in the Philadelphia area for Davis as Harrahs Philadelphia is just up I-95 from DavisWilmington home.

I like that everyone can come see me fight. Other than that I just go about my business and prepare like any other fight.

Davis believes that he will be ready for bigger stages in the next year.

We are progressing. We are hoping for a television spot later in the year. I just want everyone to come out and support us på lørdag. I will shut it down like I always do and put on a great show.

Omar Douglas to take on Jose Angel Beranza this Saturday night at Harrahs Philadelphia

Plus undefeated Kyrone Davis, Angel Ocasio, Christopher Brooker, Earl Newman, Stephan Shaw, Adam Kownacki, Stephen Fulton, Jovontae Starks og Raynell Williams
Chester, PA (April 22, 2015)–This Saturday nat, April 25, boksning tilbage til Harrahs Philadelphia med en fantastisk kort fremmes af kongens Kampagner og XFE.

 

I main event, ubesejret letvægts Omar Douglas will see action in an six-round bout when he takes on 70-fight veteran Jose Angel Beranza (36-32-2, 28 KO s) of Tepito, Mexico.

 

Douglas fra Wilmington, Delaware har en registrering af 13-0 med ti knockouts. He turned pro on May 27, 2011 med en 3. runde diskvalifikation sejr over Eric Hall.

 

Douglas vandt NABA USA Super Fjervægt titel med en 2. runde standsning i Jean Javier Soto. Douglas also has a quality win with a 8-round unanimous decision over Jesse Carradine (8-2-2). I sin sidste kamp, Douglas scorede en eksplosiv første runde standsning i Osnel Charles på December 5, 2014 på Harrahs Philadelphia.

 

“Træningslejr har været stor. I started preparing for this fight as soon as the last fight was over. I have been sparring with the best fighters in the area. When I started my camp, I was only seven pounds over the contract weight,”said Douglas.

 

Douglas knows very little about Ortiz.

 
I really only know that he is from Mexico and he has a pretty decent record.

 
This will be the first time that Douglas headlines in his home region and he not about to have any of the distractions to go with that.

 
I take it in stride. I consider it just another day at the office. The only difference is that I am closing the show.

 
This being his 14th pro fight, Douglas is now rounding into a situation where he knows what he has to do to continue to get better.

 
I have been very responsible with my defense. I always knew I had a pro style. It was my late trainer Lewis Lum who told me I was better suited to become a professional world champion than an Olympic gold medal winner.

 
Douglas sees himself continuing to grow and fighting on more high profile platforms as the year progresses.

 
I see myself on bigger cards. I am with Al Haymon so to fight on a PBC card is a goal for the year. By the end of the year, I should be considered a hot prospect and I should get in three or four more fights that should put my name out more.

 

Douglas finished by saying, “På April 25, expect a show. I will be smart and put everything together. I train for every opponent like they are the best. Once it all comes together it will be lights out!!”

 

I en seks-round co-feature, Kyrone Davis (6-0, 3 KO s) Wilmington, DE vil kæmpe Carlos Garcia (7-13-1, 7 KO s) af Aguada, PR i en super mellemvægt Bout.

 

I en otte-round Bout, Javonte Starks (11-0, 7 KO s) af Minneapolis, MN. vil tageJeremiah Wiggins (10-3-1, 5 KO s) af Newport News, VA i en weltervægt kamp..
