WBC U.S. Silver Light Heavyweight title fight James Perkins & Anthony Andreozzi Headlines “Oceanside Prize Fights”

Undefeated prospects James Perella &

Shea Willcox to be featured

Augusti 16 på Oceanside Events Center i Revere, MA

QUINCY, Mäss. (Juli 8, 2025) – Old-school boxing returns on August 16th somJames "Pitbull" Perkins (13-3-1, 9 Kos) ochAnthony "The Gentle Savage" Andreozzi (7-4, 3 Kos) square off in the 8-round main event on a stacked “Oceanside Prize Fights” card, Presenterat av Kampanjer i granithaken (GCP), for the vacant World Boxing Council (WBC) USA Silver Light Heavyweight Championship.

All åtgärd kommer att strömmas påwww.bxngtv.com live from the Oceanside Events Center (Tidigare Wonderland Ballroom) i, Massachusetts.

En del av intäkterna kommer att doneras till Quincy -brandmän Cancer Foundation, En ideell organisation vars uppdrag är att ge oöverträffat stöd till brandmän och deras familjer när de står inför utmaningarna med arbetscancer, se till att de får vården, resurser, och hjälp de behöver. Gå tillwww.quincyfirecancerfoundation.com för information.

“It’s been long overdue that Granite Chin did an event on the North Shore,” promoterChris Traiettisa. “Oceanside Events Center is a beautiful venue, and they have been a pleasure to work with. This event will be an incredible night of fights with a new WBC Silver U.S. Champion crowned. Ovanpå det, we will be raising money for the Quincy Firefighters Cancer Foundation, which as a member of the Quincy Fire Department, hits home for me. The foundation does amazing work and provides critical support for our fellow firefighters at a time of need.”

Perkins and Andreozzi are throwback fighters who could fight in a proverbial phone boothproviding non-stop action in an entertaining, competitive encounter for a regional title.

En gravigigger från närliggande Lynn (MA), the 32-year-old Perkins was a solid hockey player at St. Mary’s High School in Lynn, who also had another intensive labor job working on a lobster boat. He is a strong, aggressive puncher who has successfully transitioned from the super middleweight division to light heavyweight.

Andreozzi, av Swansea (MA), who is a former Massachusetts Middleweight Champion, has overcome a serious injury to become a title challenger. He broke his lower leg that resulted in 2 major surgeries that kept him sidelined for a full year. Andreozzi is back, hungry and ready for Perkins.

“Sometimes, som en promotor, you must get creative selling a fight, but this isn’t one of those,” Traietti added. “This fight sells itself. James and Tony are two guys who refuse to take a step backwards, for better or worse, coming forward and bringing non-stop pressure. Getting both guys to agree to fight was one of the easiest things I have done all year. They were chomping at the bit. This fight is a can’t miss regional main event.”

Två av de mest populära och lovande utsikterna i New England, Marshfield (MA) welterviktJames “The Slim Reaper” Perella (19-0, 13 Kos) and Everett (MA) junior weltervikt“Showtime” shea willcox (3-0, 3 Kos), kommer att ge huvudstöd.

Perella, 32, had a celebrated amateur career (120-20), capturing 3 New England Golden Gloves -titlar, in addition to a silver medal at the prestigious National PAL Tournament. He will face former FECARBOX Welterweight ChampionSaul “Navajo” Corral (31-24, 20 Kos) i en 8-rund kamp.

Willcox, 23, was a member of two Everett High’s Super Bowl, Division One fotbollsmästerskapslag. He was also selected as the “Most Outstanding Boxer” at last year’s New England Golden Gloves Championships, as well as a 2018 Rocky Marciano Tournament Champion. He will be in a 4-round match vs.Aldimar silva (22-28, 14 Kos), Brasilien.

Traietti concluded, “On top of a great main event, SHEA WILLCOX IS COMING HOME! Getting Shea a fight in his home area was paramount this year. We plan to make it a recurring theme. He is a terrific talent with a loyal fan base that traveled twice to Bridgewater to support him. Now he is coming to the North Shore where he belongs, and the sky’s the limit.”

Additional matchups will soon be announced.

QUINCY, Mäss. (November 10, 2022) – Former New England Welterweight Champion Mike Ohan, Jr. (16-1, 9 Kos) is preparing for his potential career-changing fight on December 10th mot 2020 US. Olympian Tiger Johnson (6-0, 4 Kos) vid den berömda Madison Square Garden i New York City.

Johnson vs. JE, Jr. is a scheduled 8-round welterweight match on a Top Rank card, headlined by a Heisman Night fight featuring Teofimo Lopez against Jose Pedraza, which will be streamed live on ESPN+.

JE, Jr. isn’t overly concerned about fighting a much-hyped prospect, who is promoted by event promoter Top Rank,, at the mecca of boxing on a much larger viewing platform.

“I’ll embrace it,” Ohan, Jr. “I’ve fought a lot of top guys in the amateurs like Jamaine Ortiz, who just fought Vasiliy Lomachenko. I feel like I belong at the top level with them, but they started competing earlier than me in the amateurs. Jag var 16-17 and had a lot of catching up to do.

“This is what all the years of me working so hard has been for. It’s been a dream of mine even as a kid, before I started boxing. It’s starting to payoff; I need to executive the game plan on fight night.”

“I couldn’t be prouder of Mike and what he has accomplished so far in boxing,” Ohan’s promoter, Granite Chin president Chris Traietti commented. “He’s a great guy with great work ethic, and he has a ton of heart. He jumped all over this opportunity when it was presented. This is why guys fight; to hopefully get a chance to shine at an event like this at Madison Square Garden. Mike grinded and grinded, now he has his well-deserved opportunity at stardom.”

JE, Jr. is the son of a retired pro boxer, (14-6-2, 11 Kos), who served as a sparring partner for the great Marvelous Marvin Hagler.

The 24-year-old Johnson, fighting out of Cleveland, var en högt dekorerad US. amateur boxer who was a member of the 2020 .USA Olympic Boxing Team. He was a 2-time winner of the USA National Championships (2016 & 2017), samt en guldmedaljör vid 2016 AIBA Youth World Boxing Championships, och 2014 USA Junior Olympic National Championships.

“He’s a great fighter,” Ohan, Jr. talked about his upcoming opponent. “Everything he does, he’s excellent at, not just good. I have to bring my A game to prove I belong. All the greats have adjusted to the situation and that’s what I have to do. I’ve put in all the blood, sweat and tears. Whatever he throws, Jag är redo. ”

Fighting in Madison Square Garden is the ultimate venue for Ohan, Jr. along with most fighters. Some may feel that the cards are stacked against Ohan, Jr, but he clearly isn’t worried about all the hoopla associated with fighting at MSG on ESPN+ against the event promoter’s highly touted boxer.

“It’s just going to be me and him in the ring,” Ohan, Jr. slutsatsen. “Madison Square Garden is an historic place. Rocky Marciano, Sugar Ray Robinson…all the greats have fought there. I love boxing history and I’m blessed to be fighting there. I do live closer to New York City than him and I’m sure people will come out for me.

“At the end of the day, fast, everybody will know who I am. An impressive performance will raise my stock, but I’m going in the ring to win!"

QUINCY, Mäss. (Maj 3, 2022) – Undefeated New Bedford (MA) light heavyweight prospect Edet Mkapanam (6-0, 5 Kos) is battling back from retina and shoulder surgeries that sidelined him 16 months before his successful ring return this past March.


The 27-year-old Mkapanam faces Scott “Bombz” Scott on the May 7th Hometown Royalty” card, presented by Granite Chin Promotions in association with Cappiello Boxing Promotions and Shearns Boxing Promotions, at Bridgewater Veterans Club in Bridgewater, Massachusetts (85 Cottage St.), marking the first professional boxing event ever held in that town.


Raised in Brockton, known as the “City of Champions, Mkapanam had an abbreviated amateur career (8-3), although he was a heavyweight winner in the 2017 Rocky Marciano-turnering, as well as runner-up a year later in the prestigious New England Golden Gloves Championships.


Mkapanam had back-to-back surgeries, starting with a torn ligament in his shoulder, followed by surgery to repair his retina in the right eye.


“I didn’t have much of an amateur career and I’ve been learning on the job (som ett proffs),” Mkapanam explained. “I learned in the gym sparring with some of the top fighters in New England like Peter Manfredo, Jr. and Mark Deluca. I mina tankar, I wanted to continue fighting and I kept working hard in the gym while recovering. Some doctors said I shouldn’t fight again, so I upped my intensity in the gym, and when I was examined again the doctors said my eye was a lot better and I was cleared to fight. I had a tough training camp before my last fight, the first after my surgeries, and I wasn’t even thinking about my eye during that fight.”


Mkapanam looked relatively sharp in his March 19th comeback fight, stopping pro debut fighter Igor Pessoa in the third round of their fight in Derry, New Hampshire.
Nu, Edet is on a mission to make up for lost time.


“I’ve been working on my jab and some other things,"Sa han. “My goal is to fight on bigger stages, which is one of the reasons I signed with (Granite Chin promoter) Chris Traietti. I respect Scott Lampert, but I’m on a whole different level in New England boxing, and I’m going to prove it this fight. I know Chris is going to get me opportunities to fight on bigger stages.”


“Edet was somebody I was interested in working with in the past, but then his injuries happened before we could formally get a deal together,” Granite Chin president Chris Traietti explained. “Once he reached out and told me he was cleared to fight again, I wasted no time making him an offer to sigh with Granite Chin. Edet is a great guy who works hard and wants to fight. We talked about a game plan for his career. We are both on the same page and you will be seeing him on a big stage in the very near future.”

Former New England Welterweight Champion Mike “Bad Man Ohan, Jr. (14-1, 8 Kos), of Holbrook, MA, headlines “Hometown Royalty” in the 8-round main event against Argentinian opponent Jose “El Chino” Aubel (8-9, 7 Kos).


Quincy (MA) lightweight Ryan “The Polish Prince” Kielczweski (30-6, 11 Kos), en 2008 National Golden Gloves silver medalist and 2-time New England Golden Gloves Champion, faces another Argentinian, Mario Lozano (18-5-1, 9 Kos), in the 8-round co-featured event.


Brockton welterweight prospect David Ribeiro makes his pro debut in a 4-round bout versus Joshua Zimmerman (0-8). Ribeiro was a celebrated amateur having won gold medals at the 2020 New England gyllene handskar, 2019 King of the Ring, and the regional Mike Tyson Tournament.

Atlanta mellanvikt Antonio Todd, Jr. Åk högt efter att ha stört WBC nr. 10 betygsatt Hugo Centeno

ANTONIO TODD FOTO 2.jpg
QUINCY, Mäss. (Januari 26, 2022) – I lördags kväll i Detroit, Atlanta mellanvikt Antonio Todd, Jr. registrerade sin karriäravgörande seger, upprörde World Boxing Council (WBC) LÅT BLI. 10-betygsatt Hugo "The Boss" Centeno, Jr. genom ett 10-ronders majoritetsbeslut i huvudevenemanget.

Den 27-årige Todd, slåss ut från Atlanta, vann på två av de tre domarnas poängkort, 97-93 och 96-94, som den andre hade det a 95-95 rita. Mer imponerande var att Todd besegrade en fighter som är under kontrakt med evenemangspromotorn, Dmitriy Salita.

– Det var den största vinsten i min karriär, än så länge,sa Todd. "Det betyder mycket för min karriär när det gäller att ta mig till nästa nivå. Jag känner att jag vann kampen genom enhälligt beslut och, om han inte hade börjat röra på sig, Jag kunde ha stoppat honom. Men det här är boxning, du måste ta chanser för att bli stor.

"Jag vill slåss mot vem som helst, någon i 160-pundsdivisionen, slåss mot större namn på tv. Jag är redo nu! Jag tror att riktiga fighters eller de som är säkra på sina färdigheter kommer att vara killarna som kliver upp. Vi har ett par namn i åtanke."

Todd främjas av stigande New England-baserade Granite Chin-kampanjer, ägd, och drivs av Chris Traietti.

"Sättet Antonio hanterade sig själv under hela processen fram till Centano-kampen är ett bevis på hans karaktär och drivkraft,” kommenterade Traietti. "I början, kampen pågick, sedan av, sedan tillbaka igen. Sedan, Centeno var över viktgränsen. Trots allt detta, Antonio och hans tränare, Lionel Harris, var bara fokuserad på stridsdelen av allt detta, lämnar bakom kulisserna till mig, och han levererade en karriäravgörande prestation. För 10 omgångar satte han press, använde sitt jab i världsklass, och drog av sig en vacker komplett seger.”
avslutade Todd, "Jag älskar att bli befordrad av Chris. Det är fantastiskt att vara en del av hans Granite Chin-team och att han är en del av mitt team.”

I have the roster now where I can both develop fighters and put on high quality local shows. 2020 was about making good relationships with other promoters and matchmakers; 2021 about developing a quality roster and keeping guys busy during a pandemic. 2022 is going to be geared towards becoming the face of quality local boxing shows and getting Granite Chin fighters on high-level, world-class cards all across the country.”

The 8-round main event will pit local favorite Nelson “Chino” Perez (5-0, 2 Kos) against New Jersey veteran super lightweight Tyrone “Hands of Stone” Luckey (15-16-4, 11 Kos).

Perez is a native of Puerto Rico who lives in Marlboro (MA), which borders Framingham. A past New England Golden Gloves champion as an amateur, Perez is coming off a dominating 4-round unanimous decision victory (40-34 X 3) December 4th against Raymundo Rios Cardies on a DAZN card in Manchester, New Hampshire. Perez will be fighting in his first scheduled 8-round bout.

Luckey, fighting out of Manahawkin, NJ, is the reigning ABF USA Mid-American Super Lightweight Champion. The dangerous Luckey has been a gatekeeper of lightweight up to welterweight divisions having fought top prospects such as Mike Ohan, Jr. Jamaine Ortiz, Tyler Tomlin, and Frank Martin. Luckey has recent back-to-back victories against previously unbeaten Eduardo Aquilar.

Hot welterweight prospect Denzel “Double Impact” Whitley (7-0, 5 Kos), of Holyoke (MA), faces Alfred “Keenan” Raymond (1-0) in the 6-round co-featured event.

Denzel, the latest member of the “Fightin’ Whitley family,” is trained by his father and uncle, respektive, Derrick and Darrin, who were respected pro fighters in New England.

Fighting out of Warwick, Rhode Island, the 31-year-old Raymond made his pro debut this past November 13th, upsetting previously undefeated Julien Baptiste (3-0) by way of a 4-round split decision.
