Adding to the local flavor and rounding out the card are a pair of Brooklyn natives. Twenty-six-year old Carlos Gongora (3-0, 2 Kos) from Ecuador competes in a six-round light heavyweight battle and 19-year-old Mexican Julian Sosa (3-0-1, 1 KO) will be featured in a four-round junior welterweight affair.
A former world champion in the junior lightweight and lightweight divisions, Serrano will look to add a third world title belt to the legacy that has already made her a popular fighter in her native Brooklyn. A New York Golden Gloves champion, she turned pro in 2009 and was undefeated in her first 15 slagsmål. The 27-year-old traveled to Argentina in 2014 to win her lightweight world title via a sixth-round knockout of Maria Elena Maderna.

A proud graduate of Notre Dame’s esteemed Mendoza College of Business, Lee took a less traveled road when he began his pro boxing career in 2010. The Chicago-native has galvanized the enormous Fighting Irish alumni network and has been a popular draw throughout the country. He has been as good in the ring as he was in the classroom, sporting a perfect 15-0 record including two stoppage victories in 2015. The 28-year-old looks to put on a show for his faithful supporters in his Barclays Center debut.
A two-time New York Golden Gloves champion, Kownacki had a big 2015, notching four victories including knockouts of Maurenzo Smith and Randy Easton. Born in Lomza, Polen, the 26-year-old now calls Brooklyn home. He is opposed by the 24-year-old D.C.-native Kelly, who has won three fights in a row.

It finally lined up to where we can work together and it’s going to great. I believe my best fights have yet to be seen,”Said Cunningham

Steve “USS” Cunningham klockspel in på kontroversiellt beslut i Glazkov kampen

Lämna en kommentar
Philadelphia (Mars 17, 2015)–I efterdyningarna av hans IBF eliminering bout detta tidigare Lördag på Bell Centre i Montreal, tidigare mästare två-tiden cruiservärlden och nuvarande tunga utmanare Steve “USS” Cunningham wants to state his case to what the boxing world saw, och det är fel man hade sin hand upp.
Tittarna såg som Cunningham kontrollerade matchen och ut landade Vjatjeslav Glazkov i åtta av de tolv ronder med jabs är nästan jämn och Cunningham landning fler kraft skott till tonerna av 123-84.
Totalt, Cunningham ut kastade Glazkov genom 208 stansar och ut landade honom 180-144 över tolv runda striden.
“Siffrorna, uppfattningen, videon, inget av det ligger,” Said Cunningham.
“Titta på statistik. Titta på hans ansikte. The man spit out his mouthpiece three times because he really had no answer for what I was doing to him. I was hurting him to the body. His corner even pleaded with him that he needed a knockout in the final round to beat me. Somehow two judges gave him eight rounds and another gave him seven. Why bother fighting if this stuff is going to happen? I outworked him, ut landade honom och slog honom varje vilket sätt. He was considered the puncher coming into the fight but as the fight progressed it was me walking him down trying to make him fight.”
“När kommer fläktarna tröttnar på alla dessa dåliga beslut? What can the fighters do about that? It has to be the fans that pay the money. Look at my rematch with Tomasz Adamek and now this fight. Just nu, Jag borde vara en obligatorisk utmanare att kämpa för Heavyweight mästerskapet i världen men på grund av dessa fruktansvärda domare, Jag måste fundera min nästa drag.”
