Yn gynharach heddiw, NEF announced the addition of a professional boxing bout to the fight card. Jason “The Fighting Fireman” Quirk yn dychwelyd i'r cylch yn erbyn Borngod Washington mewn pedair rownd bout canol super.
The fight will represent the first appearance for Quirk in the NEF boxing ring. After a stellar amateur career, Quirk turned pro in late 2014. He has been perfect (5-0, 3 Kos) over the course of his pro career thus far. When Quirk steps into the ring onMehefin 17, it will have been more than a year-and-a-half since his last fight, and he is looking forward to competing once again. He trains out of the Portland Boxing Club (PBC) and works as a firefighter with the Portland Fire Department – Local 740 IAFF. Quirk also served his country for four years as a member of the Coast Guard.
“I’m looking forward to getting back in the ring and getting to work,” said Quirk immediately following a training session at PBC. “We’ve had a good camp so far, and I’m training hard for this fight. I’m grateful for NEF considering me for this card and I’m ready to put on a show.”
Borngod Washington is about as seasoned of a veteran as one will find in the boxing world. The native of Queens, New York has fought in the pro ranks since 2007. Washington’s career highlight came in 2011 when he scored a fourth-round TKO victory over Ricky Dawson (4-1, 1 KO), brother of former light-heavyweight champion of the world Chad Dawson (34-5, 19 Kos). Washington also took current light-heavyweight contender Sean Monaghan (28-0, 17 Kos) the distance in a four-round bout, losing a majority decision on the judges’ cardiau sgorio. He currently trains with John Wesley Meekins (25-5-2, 17 Kos) yn Efrog Newydd. Meekins challenged Meldrick Taylor (38-8-1, 20 Kos) for the IBF Junior Welterweight Title in 1989.
“I’m excited to come to Maine and fight with my new trainer John Wesley Meekins in my corner,” Dywedodd Washington. “I’m returning to form and ready to go, and I thank NEF for the opportunity to fight in Maine. I’ve got people from different areas coming to see the fight, and I know I’ll be ready”.
