QUINCY, Маса. (Април 2, 2018) — This Saturday night’s “Fight Night at The Zone”, presented by Granite Chin Promotions, has been strengthened by the late addition of hot prospect Irvin Gonzalez to a card already showcasing some of the best young, professional boxers in New England.

Granite Chin Promotions is on a mission to establish a fan-base in the Granite State, providing a fan friendly, full entertainment experience at The Sports Zone in Derry, Њу Хемпшир.

Гонзалес (8-0, 7 КО), fighting out of Worcester, М-р, беше 2015 Нова Англија Златен Ракавици шампион, who qualified for the 2016 Олимписки судење. The 21-year-old featherweight prospect will face Mexican Франциско “El Mono” Medal (12-12, 8 КО) во шест круг рунда.

Гонзалес, who hasn’t fought since December 1 1 (sensational third-round knockout of previously undefeated 13-0 Marlon Olea in Providence), was supposed to fight St. Patrick’s Day in Boston, but he was informed the day of the weigh in that his opponent hadn’t cleared medicals.

I’m always in the gym working hard because I like to stay busy and be ready,” Гонзалес изјави. “No layoffs for me. I’ve been sparring 3-4 times a week to polish my craft. Јас сум секогаш подготвен. I was disappointed a few weeks ago, but I’m fighting on this card, and back on the right track.

“I only focus on my next fight, Април 7^та, against a tough, искусен противник. He’s a veteran boxer from Mexico. After this Saturday night, I’ll concentrate on my next fight, Мај 5^та at Foxwoods.”

The addition of Gonzalez with a card featuring some of tomorrow’s stars such as Hartford, CT light heavyweight champion Ричард “Попај Морнарот човек” Ривера (6-0, 5 КО) means two of the top three prospects in New England will be in action this Saturday in Derry. And several other promising boxers will also be in action. Rivera faces Ренди “The Rattler” Кембел, of Ohio, in the six-round co-featured event.

“We are happy to have Irvin on our show,” co-promoter Chuck Shearns рече. “His last fight fell out and we are always happy to help local fighters, especially someone of Irvin’s caliber. We have five undefeated fighters on this show. They’re legitimate prospects with a lot of upside. Ирвин, Richie and Omar are starting to get national attention and New Hampshire fans are getting an early look at them. The veteran fighters on this show have a lot to fight for as well. ”
