 LAS VEGAS (四月 5, 2016) – 四月 16日10-round main event between Canadian welterweight 史蒂夫 “The Dragon” Claggett and South Africa-native 克里斯 “熱火” 凡希爾登 embodies the “Knockout Night at the D” philosophy in terms of featuring action fighters in evenly matched, entertaining bouts.
該 “Knockout Night at the D” 系列, presented by 對D拉斯維加斯 和拉斯韋加斯市中心活動中心(DLVEC), 被提拔 羅伊·瓊斯JR. (RJJ) Boxing Promotions.
該四月. 16日 “Knockout Night at the D” event will air 星期六 夜晚, 四月 16 (8 P.M. PT / 11 P.M. AND), 住在 CBS體育網 from under the neon lights at the DLVEC outdoor venue.
The broadcast team includes Jim “JR” Ross, 肖恩德豐 和前世界冠軍 凱文· “The Flushing Flash” Kelley. Joe Martinez is the ring announcer.
克拉吉特 vs. Van Heerden is a crossroads fight for both boxers with critical consequences, especially for the winner who will use it as an invaluable springboard for his boxing career.
The 26-year-old Claggett (23-3-1, 16 科斯), who is the reigning Canadian Professional Boxing Council and Canadian welterweight champion, is thrilled to be fighting in Las Vegas for the first time. “這是一個夢想成真,” 他解釋. “I’ve trained in Las Vegas often but now it’s time to show what I can do there in a fight. A win will open many doors for me and could potentially lead to a path that will set up the rest of my boxing life. 不用說, I am focused and prepared for the opportunity.”

Claggett, as well as Van Heerden, are known as high-action fighters, throwing punches in bunches, and something eventually has to give. 凡希爾登 (23-1-1, 12 科斯), fighting out of Santa Monica (例如), is a former International Boxing Organization (IBO) 和國際拳擊聯合會 (IBF) 次中量級冠軍.
“Van Heerden is a rangy, quick and active fighter,” Claggett said. “I have an action style but, for many years, I was strictly a pressure fighter with a good body shot. 如今, 雖然, I have a couple of more tricks up my sleeve. His heart and durability have been shown and is to be respected. This match-up is sure to produce some good exchanges. I expect this to be a high-action fight between two hungry fighters with him coming off a loss (to unbeaten rising star 埃羅爾·斯彭斯JR. 去年九月) and me coming off more than one fight falling through. This is a great match up. He is similar to the style of (Konstantin)Ponomarev (who Claggett lost an 8-round decision to last year) with range and movement. And that motivates me!”
 Undefeated Lancaster, California welterweight Neeco “Rooster” Macias (11-0, 4 科斯) 會見 Limberth “閃電” Ponce, JR. (10-2, 8 科斯), of Rock Island, 伊利諾伊, in the 8-round co-feature. Unbeaten Baltimore welterweight prospect 馬利克 “冰人” Hawkins(6-0, 5 科斯) 面孔 Errol Sidney (6-1-2, 2 科斯), 新奧爾良, in a 6-round bout to open the television broadcast.
The undercard also features promising Las Vegas-based prospects in four-round bouts: 次中量級 Jeremy “J Flash” Nichols (2-0, 2 科斯), featherweight Sal Lopez (2-0) and junior featherweight Randy Moreno (1-0, 1 KO).
