MISSISSAUGA, אונטריו, קנדה (אוקטובר 26, 2017) – Fresh off his International Boxing Association (רשות השידור) Inter-Continental title-winning performance, undefeated Canadian lightweight sensation ג'וש “Dubs” O’Reilly is ready to step up in class in terms of facing world-class opponents.
The 26-year-old O’Reilly (10-0, 4 קוס), who fights with the fury of his Irish heritage, הפיל את יריבו המקסיקני, אוסקר “Elegante” Arjona (13-7, 5 קוס) in the fifth round of their October 21רח ' fight at Hersey Centre in Mississauga, אונטריו, קנדה, for the vacant IBA Inter-Continental championship.
Hall of Fame referee Steve Smoger is shown waving off the fight in favor of the celebrating O’Reilly over the fallen Arjona.
The highly entertaining O’Reilly, fighting out of Hamilton, אונטריו, has a potential list of quality lightweight opponents at home in Canada, or his promoter, Tyler Buxton(United Boxing Promotions), could choose a fight outside of Canada for the first time as a pro, whether in the United States or Europe.
“Josh is a very versatile inside-outside, boxer-puncher who will give any fighter problems moving forward,” Buxton said. He is looking forward to an opportunity to position himself for an IBA World title fight.”
Super welterweight contender ברנדון “ילד רע” קוק (18-1, 11 קוס) חוזר לפעולה דצמבר 16, headlining the United Boxing Promotions-presented “השיבה” כרטיס, against an opponent to soon be announced at Hersey Centre.
קוק, the North American Boxing Association (כמו כן) אלוף, will be rebounding from his last fight, ספטמבר 9 in Kazakhstan, in which he (WBA #5) suffered his first loss as a pro against hometown favorite (WBA #2) קנאת איסלאם (25-0) in their highly competitive and extremely entertaining fight for the WBA Inter-Continental and North American Boxing Organization (שכנים) super welterweight titles.
Last January, Cook registered the most notable victory of his young pro career, knocking out Canadian rival and previously unbeaten Steven Butler (18-0-1), defending his NABA title and winning the IBF North American title, at Montreal’s famed Bell Centre.
