Prize Promotions Tabs Russell Peltz and Brittany “Khob noom” Rogers for Matchmaking Duties

Cia ib saib

Danbury, I (Plaub Hlis Ntuj 16, 2015)- At the beginning of April, newly licensed Connecticut boxing promoter A.J. Galante introduced his company, Nqi zog Promotions. Galante spoke of his goal of bringing “Old School” boxing to Connecticut.

To prove he is serious about his vision, Galante has turned his matchmaking over to Hall of Fame Philadelphia promoter, Russell Peltz along with one of the sports youngest and most promising promoters and matchmakers, Brittany “BAM”

Rogers.

“Russell is the definition of Old School matchmaking, he’s one of the last out there, so it was a no brainer for me to reach out to him, and I am honored that he is willing to work with me.” Galante hais, “His resume speaks for itself, I am extremely confident that working together, we will put on spectacular shows” Galante was also extremely excited to work with Brittany “BAM” Rogers, who works in conjunction with Russell Peltz,

“I’m often referred to as one of the youngest boxing people on the business side of things, but BAM is actually younger than me, and has been in the sport longer than me. I have a lot of respect for her and have been learning a lot through working with her.”

Ultimately Galante said what cemented his choice on his matchmakers, was a trip to Philladelphia in October, to attend a show promoted by both Peltz and Rogers, “When you think Philly boxing, you think gritty and exciting, and you can’t think Philadelphia boxing without Russell Peltz and Brittany Rogers, and I am looking forward to bringing those types of shows and that environment here to Connecticut.” It won’t be long for Galante to fulfill his promise, as his first show Danbury Fight Night, will take place onTej zaum 30 nyob rau ntawm lub Danbury Arena, in his hometown of Danbury, I.

The card is currently taking shape, and will be announced soon. Daim pib yuav raug muas los ntawm kev mus saib xyuas www.prizepromotions.net – Pricing: $100,$75, $50 & $25

“My training camp is basically running the same way. I think it has been smoother than others. I feel very comfortable and happy with my performances. They push me hard at camp. They know what I need.

 

“The timing for this fight is right. This fight is about legacy, fans and family. I surround myself with all of the right people.

 

“I can’t say that this matchup is about hype. This is real life. This is two future Hall of Famers in a mega-fight.

 

“I’ve done record breaking numbers before and it looks like we’re going to do it again.

 

“Everything in life is about timing. I have no regrets that this fight didn’t take place five years ago. I didn’t think it was that big then, but it continued to get bigger and bigger.

“Floyd Mayweather is the highest paid athlete in all of sports and he happens to be a boxer.

Floyd MAYWEATHER SR., Mayweather’s Trainer & Father

 

“Floyd is as well rounded a fighter as there has ever been, but he’s really still here because of his defense.

 

“Other guys fight with their head and their mind and come up short. It’s his great defense that has kept him on top for so long.

 

“I want you all to see it. It’s so plain and simple what he’s going to do. Even Ray Charles could see it.

 

“I honestly never thought that this was going to happen. So many people were trying to say Floyd was scared. Lets see on Tej zaum 2 who is scared.

 

“I can’t tell you why or how, but here’s an update, Floyd is going to kick his a** and knock Pacquiao out.

 

“I didn’t watch one tape on Pacquiao. There is no reason to study him. He’s not at this level.

 

“Floyd is the best, I must confess. Nothing is going to stop Floyd Mayweather.

 

“Pacquiao’s trainer Coach Roach (Freddie Roach) is lying to you. Trying to trick you all. Floyd’s not getting knocked down in the gym. Floyd is the one knocking people down. Roach blows smoke with no hope.”
