Washington, Gelijkspanningsbedrading. (Februari, 26, 2016) – MORGEN NACHT, Februari 27,King’s Promotions returns to our nation’s capital of Washington, D.C with a big night of boxing at the Walter E. Washington Convention Center.
In het main event, Ty Barnett take on former world title challenger Daniël Atan in a Super Lightweight battle scheduled for 8-rounds.
In one of the chief support bouts, undefeated Lightweight, Mykal Fox will look to stay perfect when he takes on veteran Claudinei Lacerda in a bout scheduled for 6-rounds.
Fox is promoted by King’s Promotions.
Fox van Forestville, Maryland heeft een record van 8-0 with two knockouts while Lacerda of Brazil has considerably more experience as he is 17-13-1 met 12 knock-outs.
My training has been great. I have had great sparring with different looks. I have been in there with puncher, boxers and even some MMA fighters, so I am ready for anything,”zei de 20 jaar oude Fox.
Lacerda is a grizzled veteran, who has been a Brazilian Super Welterweight champion as well as the WBO Latino Interim Lightweight champion.
My opponent has more than 30 gevechten. He has been a champion, but this is nothing new. My last opponent (Adam Mate, 18-6) had twenty-four fights, so I feel it’s a great opportunity for me to continue fighting quality opponents.
Vos, along with his father/trainer Troy, doe not believable that fighting such veteran fighters is too-much, too-soon for the fighter known as “De Professor”.
My father believes in me and what I am capable of doing. I work hard and am always trying to move forward. I am on a great pace. Is it too fast? I don’t think so, because I also know what I am capable of. “
Fox has been building his name in the local market as every fight of his career has been in the greater Maryland/D.C area and he embraces the opportunities to please the home fans.
It is always a pleasure to fight at home. I always have a huge turnout and it is a good way to build my fan base. I am thankful and excited. Camp is the hard part and that is done. I can’t be more excited to put on a great performance op zaterdag nachts.”

Na 28 maanden ontslag, ongeslagen lichtgewicht Angel Ocasio keert deze zaterdag terug in Harrahs Philadelphia

Omar Douglas neemt het in het hoofdevenement op tegen voormalig wereldtitel-uitdager Daniel Attah en is ongeslagen, Christopher Brooker, Earl Newman, Stephan Shaw, Adam Kownacki, Stephen Fulton, Jovontae Starks en Raynell Williams
Chester, PA (April 24, 2015)–MORGENAVOND!!, April 25, boksen keert terug naar Harrahs Philadelphia met een geweldige kaart gepromoot door King’s Promotions en XFE.



In het main event, ongeslagen lichtgewicht Omar Douglas zal actie zien in een gevecht van zes ronden waarin hij nu vecht tegen de voormalige uitdager van de wereldtitel Daniël Atan (28-19-1, 11 KO's) Washington, D.C.

In een van de verwachte undercard-aanvallen, ongeslagen lichtgewicht Angel Ocasio (7-0-2, 2 KO's) zal het opnemen tegen een stoere veteraan Justin Johnson in een gevecht gepland voor zes ronden.

Het was iets meer dan twee jaar geleden toen Ocasio, beschouwd als een stijgend vooruitzicht in Philadelphia, was de laatste in de ring toen hij Esteban Rodriguez in december in twee rondes tegenhield 8, 2012.

“Ik nam de vrije tijd, vond de heer en trouwde,”zei de 25 jarige Ocasio.

“Het was een broodnodige vrije tijd. Ik hielp me beseffen dat er belangrijker dingen zijn dan alleen maar bokser zijn. Ik weet daar dat er andere dingen zijn, zoals boksen is maar tijdelijk. Als boksen er niet was, Ik zou nog steeds dezelfde man zijn. ”

Ocasio weet dat hij talent heeft in de ring en na die pauze, hij vond het niet zo moeilijk om weer op de rails te komen.

“Het trainingsaspect was niet zo moeilijk. Ik ben goed met gewicht en het hardlopen was goed. Ik denk dat het enige dat tijd nodig had, mijn timing was. Maar ik heb er geweldig mee gewerkt (ongeslagen lichtgewicht) Milton Santiago Jr. en het kwam mooi terug.”

Ocasio koos geen gemakkelijke klant voor zijn comeback-tegenstander in Johnson. Het record van Johnson luidt rechtvaardig 6-7-4 maar hij heeft vier ongeslagen spelers gewonnen plus respect voor Philly-vechter Hasan Young.

“Justin is stoer. Hij versloeg vier ongeslagen strijders en ik weet zeker dat hij zich goed voorbereidt. Alleen al door tegen een man met zo'n record te vechten, win je geen gevechten. Hij is een ervaren vechter, dus ik weet dat het een goed gevecht zal worden.”

“Ik hoop de rest van het jaar erg actief te zijn. Ik ben op zoek naar vijf totale gevechten in 2015. Misschien nog twee gevechten van zes ronden en mijn doel is om tegen het einde van het jaar acht rondes te vechten. Ik denk dat ik ongeveer acht gevechten verwijderd ben van een van die televisiegevechten die me naar het hoogste niveau zullen brengen.”

De welbespraakte Ocasio benadrukt dat ondanks zijn afwezigheid, hij zal binnenkort een grote naam zijn in de sport.

“Ik ben terug. Ik kom voor wat van mij is. De mensen die al lang aan mij twijfelen, kunnen nog steeds instappen en zich bij het team aansluiten!”

In een acht-ronde Bout, Javonte Starks (11-0, 7 KO's) Minneapolis, MN. zal nemen Jeremia Wiggins (10-3-1, 5 KO's) van Newport News, VA in een weltergewicht wedstrijd..
Ook in de zes-ronde vlagen:
Kyrone Davis (6-0, 3 KO's) van Wilmintond, DE zullen op te nemen Carlos Garcia (7-13-1, 7 KO's) van Puerto Rico in een Super middengewicht gevecht.
Adam Kownacki (8-0, 8 KO's) van Brooklyn, NY zal proberen te houden zijn perfecte knock-out streak gaan toen hij vecht Randy Easton (3-6-1, 3 KO's) van Sunbury, PA in een zwaargewicht gevecht.
Stephen Fulton (4-0, 1 KO) van Philadelphia zal vechten Jamal Parram (7-10-1, 5 KO's) van St. Louis, MO in een vedergewicht wedstrijd.
Voormalig U.S. Olympiër, Raynell Williams (6-0, 3 KO's) Cleveland, OH zal af plein met Alfred Hall (4-8-2, 2 KO's) van Jackson, Michigan in een lichtgewicht gevecht.
In vier-ronde vlagen:
Christpher Brooker (1-0, 1 KO) van Philadelphia, PA nemen Maurits Amaro (2-8, 1 KO) van Philadelphia, PA in een super middengewicht bout.
Stephan Shaw (3-0, 3 KO's) van St. Louis, MO zullen strijden Zachary Bunce (2-1, 1 KO) van Las Vegas, NV in een zwaargewicht gevecht.
