Aleem–“It doesn’t matter who is in front of me.  I have been looking to fight other undefeated guys, but they have been ducking me and not taking those fights for various reasons.  Bates accepted the fight, and it is going down on Friday.

 

 

 

 

 

ON FIGHTING IN PHILADELPHIA

 

 

 

 

 

Bates–“I have fought in Philly twice already, and this will be the 3rd time.  It is a great crowd there, and they have shown me love.  It makes me want to go in there and fight.”

 

 

 

 

Aleem–“To be able to fight in Philadelphia is a good accomplishment.  I have fought most of my fights in the Midwest, so it is a great opportunity to make some new fans.”

 

 

 

 

WHAT DOES A WIN DO FOR YOUR CAREER

 

 

 

 

Bates–“I am focused on this fight, and I only take 1 fight at a time.  After this win, I will talk to my manager and promoter and see what is next.  It’s going down, and someone is getting knocked out.  My fans can follow me on Instagram at _Dream_Crusher_Bates.

 

 

 

 

Aleem–“A Win does a lot.  It opens up other doors.  I have mentally put in a lot of hard work and focus to stay undefeated.  Not only winning, but looking good is a must.  You will not see any sloppy performance out of me on Friday.  April 6th, I am going in there for 8 hard rounds.  I will put everything on the table”

Reading, PA (December 27, 2017) – King’s Promotions is pleased to announce the signing of former world title challenger José “Chelo” González to a promotional contract.
González, 34 of Toa Baja, Puerto Rico has a record of 24-2 with 19 knockouts.
González won his first 19 bouts with wins over Osenohan Vázquez (1-0), Eric Cruz (5-1-2), Hector Marengo (5-0-4) & Edgardo Soto (12-2). 
On June 3, 2011, González won the WBO Latino Lightweight title with a 6th round stoppage over Gerardo Cuevas.
González made five successful defenses before challenging WBO Lightweight world champion Ricky Burns on May 11, 2013.
González was dominating that bout and well on his way to becoming a world champion before injuring his wrist and retiring from the bout after the 10th round.
González rebounded by re-winning the WBO Latino Lightweight title and defending it with a 5th round stoppage over Marvin Quintero (26-5).
González will be looking to come back after a two-and-a-half year layoff.
González stated: “I am very happy with this new chapter in my career.  I am returning to the ring with plenty of excitement and with the same dedication I have always had.  I thank Marshall and King’s Promotions for the opportunity and I have no doubt that together we will return to a world title.”
“We are excited to bring Jose into the fold.  He is a world championship caliber fighter, and is a terrific addition to King’s Promotions.  We are looking to make his debut in early March, and if he performs we can see very big opportunities in his future,” said King’s Promotions CEO Marshall Kauffman.
