Dmitriy Salita, Salon aktsiyalari prezidenti:
“Tony Harrison and his family are the bedrock of the Detroit boxing community — deeply rooted, respected, and committed to giving back. It’s meaningful that Tony, the last world champion from Detroit, will be fighting at Little Caesars Arena, just minutes from where he grew up. Alongside Claressa Shields, another Michigan-born icon, this event showcases the strength, pride, and legacy of boxing in our great state.”
Tony Harrison:
“I can’t wait to fight in my hometown of Detroit on July 26th. The middleweight division better take notice — I’m coming for my second world title, and I’m more focused than ever.”
“It’s incredible to see what Salita is doing for boxing in Detroit. We’re here in my gym, right in the heart of the city, with cameras and photographers — and the kids see it. They get inspired. I’m fighting just down the street at Little Caesars Arena, Doizda yashang, and that kind of visibility motivates the next generation. That’s what it’s all about.”
