Brandon Robinson (10-1, 7 KOs) de la part superior Darby, Pennsilvània, un dels lluitadors més ocupats del joc després d'haver lluitat contra un increïble 9 vegades l'any passat, apareixerà contra un oponent que es nomenarà en a 6 combat de pes súper mitjà rodó. Robinson està signat amb Marshall Kauffman's Kings Promotions.

 

 

 

Bowie invicte, Natiu de Maryland i membre de la llista de The Real Deal Boxing, Greg Outlaw (4-0, 1 KO) s'enfrontarà al port de Lanoka, Nova Jersey Dan Murray (3-1-1) en una 6 batalla rodona pes welter júnior.

Creiem que Atlantic City està a punt per tornar a ser una de les principals destinacions de la boxa professional i The Real Deal Boxing es compromet a formar-ne part.”

Rising Promotions, New Jersey’s busiest promoter set for 4th event in just seven month on July 22

ATLANTIC CITY, Nova Jersey (Juny 27, 2016)–El Divendres nit, 22 de juliol, Rising Promotions will present it’s 4th big event at The Claridge Hotel in Atlantic City.
No doubt another sold-crowd will be on hand to witness the action as Rising Promotions is establishing itself as the busiest promoter in the Garden State.
The shows have consistently featured some of the best talent in the Tri-Stae (Nova Jersey, Nova York & Pennsylvania.) in competitive, fan-friendly bouts in front of a packed venue at The Claridge.
The first three shows have gone exactly to the blueprint which we set out for when we came up with the concept,” said Debra LaManna of Rising Promotions.
The response has been terrific on all fronts. From the fighters, the fan turn out and sponsors. The Clardige and the New Jersey State Athletic Commission have been a pleasure to work with as well.
I think when fans know that every couple months they know they can see these kinds of events with Rising Promotions, the events start to sell themselves. With events scheduled for July, September and November, we will continue to build on what we have started.
Said Thomas LaManna of Rising Promotions, “Every big time promoter starts somewhere, I just so happened to start at the age of 24 while still active in my career with a pro record of 18-1.
It all started out with just doing these shows to keep me active. Ray McCline of the Atlantic City Boxing Hall of Fame and I met in Las Vegas during the Mayweather/Pacquiao fight week and discussed doing shows at The Claridge because he had a direct connection with them. When the meeting was over, I started to see the big picture with it so I than sat down with my parents and my promoter Mr. Vincent M. Ponte of Gulf Stream Promotions, we put together a strong team with a solid mission and three successful shows later, here we are,” Continued Thomas LaManna.
It feels great to open doors for fighters to jump start there career. Fins ara, I was able to have four boxers make their professional debut on my shows so far and they include (former Olympian Luis Perozo, 2016 United States Olympic alternate Leroy Davila & Marvin Johnson).
It’s always been my dream and goal to become a world champion. That’s first and foremost because I am still a fighter first, but I also have a goal to be one of the top promoters in the sport of boxing. Most people say I can’t, waste of time, no money to be made. That’s there way of thinking and they can keep that mindset. I strive to be great in everything I do and this is just another journey. Keep a lookout for Rising Promotions.
