| Chester, Pennsilvània (Abril 22, 2015)–This Saturday nit, Abril 25, boxa torna a Harrahs Filadèlfia amb una targeta fabulosa promogut per Promocions del Rei i XFE.
En l'esdeveniment principal, invicte pes lleuger Omar Douglas will see action in an six-round bout when he takes on 70-fight veteran Jose Angel Beranza (36-32-2, 28 Nocauts) of Tepito, Mèxic.
Douglas de Wilmington, Delaware té un registre de 13-0 amb deu knockouts. He turned pro on May 27, 2011 amb una tercera victòria desqualificació assalt sobre Eric Passadís.
Douglas va guanyar el títol NABA EUA Super Ploma amb una segona parada rodona sobre Jean Javier Soto. Douglas also has a quality win with a 8-round unanimous decision over Jesse Carradine (8-2-2). En la seva última baralla, Douglas va anotar un nocaut en el primer round explosiu en Osnel Charles al desembre 5, 2014 en Harrahs Filadèlfia.
“El camp d'entrenament ha estat molt bo. 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, “En Abril 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!!”
