LAS VEGAS (Май 31, 2016) –
An old-time grudge match between lightweights Demond “Body Shot” Пор и
Чуи “Hurrican” Gutierrez will headline the third installment of the “Knockout Night at the D” серия,
Петък нощ, Юни 10, проветряване (
11 p.m. И /
8 p.m. PT) на живо по
CBS Sports Network от открито
Downtown Las Vegas Събития Center (DLVEC).
The “Knockout Night at the D” серия, представен от
на D Las Vegas and DLVEC,
is promoted by Roy Jones Jr. (RJJ) боксови Промоции.
“Brock versus Chuy has been a fight in the making for years and now the dream is a reality,” каза Кийт Veltre, CEO / Co-Founder of Roy Jones Jr. боксови Промоции. “As Brock defends his title, Chuy will fight to the end to regain the title that he let lapse. This fight promises to be an all-out war and the winner will move into a national spotlight. Thanks to the ‘Knock out Night at the D’ серия, Derek Stevenson is giving Las Vegas prospects an opportunity to make a national presence.”
Пор (11-3-1, 4 Нокаута)
will defend his USNBC title against former USNBC lightweight champ Gutierrez (14-0-1, 4 Нокаута),
who never lost his belt in the ring,
which has set the stage for this Las Vegas showdown to determine who the USNBC belt truly belongs to.
Adding fuel to the fire is the fact both fighters train in Las Vegas and have growing fan-bases.
The 35-year-old Brock, who fights out of Kenner, Louisiana, learned to box in the Louisiana State Penitentiary, while serving his 14 ½-year sentence there for armed robbery. In prison, he won 39 на 40 fights with 17 нокаута, eventually finishing his amateur career with an outstanding 54-3 рекорд.
Last November in El Paso, Texas, the RJJ-promoted Brock upset 9-1-1 Oscar Valenzuela, capturing the vacant WBC United States (USNBC) lightweight title by way of a unanimous 8-round decision.
Gutierrez is from Sinaloa, Мексико,
the home of Hall-of-Famer Жулио Сезар Чавес among many other top fighters born there.
A love of baseball kept Gutierrez occupied, до,
as he says, “
boxing found me.”
Gutierrez was attending college at South Nevada and working,
still dreaming of becoming a major league baseball player,
when he walked into the famed Johnny Tocco’s Ringside Boxing gym at the age of 21.
Bitten by the boxing bug, Gutierrez turned pro in in 2010 and he’s rapidly developed into a fan-friendly fighter, largely due to his aggressive, entertaining style. В 2014, Gutierrez won an 8-round majority decision over Rashad Ganaway(14-4-1) for the vacant USNBC lightweight crown.
The unbeaten Gutierrez wants his belt back and he’s determined to take it from Brock, който, разбира се, believes otherwise. They will settle the score Юни 10тата in the 10-round main event that promises fireworks.
