ДЕТРОЙТ (Юли 15, 2025) – Embodying the Detroit fighting spirit, Harrison boasts a highly decorated career that spans over fourteen years. On a mission to reclaim a world title, Harrison is set to step back into the ring for the first time since his WBO Interim Super Welterweight showdown against Tim Tszyu in 2023. A force in the super welterweight division, Harrison defeated Jermell Charlo in 2018 to become the WBC Super Welterweight Champion, giving Charlo his first defeat. Този път, Harrison is gearing up to perform for his hometown fans in the Motor City as the co-main event of the highly anticipated Claressa Шийлдс срещу. Lani Daniels Heavyweight World Championship event on Събота, Юли 26, at Little Caesars Arena.

Opposite Harrison will be Dominican Republic’s Edward Diaz (15-6, 12 Нокаута). A heavy-handed competitor, Diaz is on the heels of a knockout victory over Juan Martinez.

The GWOAT, Claressa Шийлдс (16-0, 3 Нокаута), will return home on Saturday, Юли 26, when she puts her Undisputed Heavyweight World Championship on the line in the main event atLittle Caesars Arena against the reigning IBF Lt. Heavyweight World Champion from New Zealand, Lani Daniels (11-2-2, 1 KO). Шийлдс срещу. Daniels will air live on the global home of boxing, DAZN. Шийлдс, the most decorated female boxer in history, made headlines earlier this year by becoming the first woman ever to claim the Undisputed Heavyweight World Championship—and the first boxer, мъж или жена, to achieve undisputed status in three weight divisions.

Дмитрий Salita, Президент на Salita Promotions:

“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.”

Тони 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, на живо по DAZN, and that kind of visibility motivates the next generation. That’s what it’s all about.”

ДЕТРОЙТ (Юли 9, 2025) – Salita Promotions has announced the signing of former WBC Super Welterweight Champion and proud Detroit nativeTony Harrison(29-4-1, 21 Нокаута) to their surging roster.

Embodying the Detroit fighting spirit, Harrison boasts a highly decorated career that spans over fourteen years. On a mission to reclaim a world title, Harrison is set to step back into the ring for the first time since his WBO Interim Super Welterweight showdown against Tim Tszyu in 2023. A force in the super welterweight division, Harrison defeated Jermell Charlo in 2018 to become the WBC Super Welterweight Champion, giving Charlo his first defeat. This time, Harrison is gearing up to perform for his hometown fans in the Motor City as the co-main event of the highly anticipatedClaressa Шийлдс срещу. Lani Daniels Heavyweight World Championship event onСъбота, Юли 26, at Little Caesars Arena. Opposite Harrison will be Dominican Republic’sEdward Diaz (15-6, 12 Нокаута). A heavy-handed competitor, Diaz is on the heels of a knockout victory over Juan Martinez.

Boxing is in Harrison’s blood as he is a third-generation professional fighter. His grandfather, Henry Hank, fought from 1955 към 1972 and retired with a record of 62-31-4, 40 Нокаута. Henry’s son, Ali Salaam – Harrison’s father and former trainer, now deceased – was a professional welterweight who fought from 1984 към 1989 and retired with a record of 11-6, 5 Нокаута.

“We are excited to get back in there and get to work,” said Harrison. “It’s been a minute, but we are going to roll out like George Foreman did for his comeback. I have a short window left, so we are going to be active, keep winning, and eventually get back to the mountain top. Regaining a world title is my No. 1 goal, and I am feeling very strong at 160. It all starts once again on July 26 in my hometown. Let’s eat.”

“Tony Harrison is the last world champion from Detroit — a fighter who has proudly carried the city’s rich boxing legacy all the way to a world title,” said Salita Promotions PresidentДмитрий Salita. “Now rejuvenated at middleweight, he’s on a mission to add another belt to his already remarkable career. Fans watching live on DAZN and at Little Caesars Arena will witness an action-packed undercard featuring some of the best talent in the world.

Also featured on the impressive DAZN televised main card, rising heavyweight starPryce Taylor (8-0, 6 Нокаута) returns to the ring for the fourth time in 2025. On the strength of four straight knockouts, Brooklyn’s Taylor aims to continue his rise to heavyweight greatness against Saginaw, Mich.’sRobert Simms (12-4-1, 3 Нокаута).

Samantha Worthington (11-0, 7 Нокаута), who is co-promoted by Shields’T-Rex Promotionsand Salita Promotions, looks to take one step closer to achieving her world title dream when she collides with France’sVictoire Piteau (14-2, 2 Нокаута) заWBA Jr. Борец от полусредна категорияWomen’s Interim Title. An undeniable rising star under the Salita Promotions banner, Alabama-born Worthington has passed every test in the ring impressively. Stringing together three statement victories in the past year, Worthington has earned the interim title opportunity in a division that features superstarsКейти ТейлъриАманда Serrano. Opposite Worthington, Piteau competes for a spot atop the star-studded 140-pound division. On the strength of five straight victories, Piteau will fight for the first time in the U.S. in a pivotal matchup against Worthington on July 26. The winner of this bout will be in line to face the winner of Taylor vs. Serrano III, taking place this weekend

Kicking off the main card action, the reigning WBC International Women’s Featherweight champion, Caroline Veyre(9-1), who fights out of Montreal, steps into the ring for the second time this year when she faces France’sLicia Boudersa (23-3-2, 4 Нокаута) in a WBC Women’s Featherweight World Title Eliminator. Signing with Salita Promotions in 2024, Veyre has proven to be one of the most dangerous contenders in the featherweight division. On the heels of two dominant unanimous decision victories in back-to-back fights, Veyre prepares to take the next step towards WBC gold against the battle-tested Boudersa. Boudersa, 32, makes her promotional debut following a closely contested loss to Beatriz Ferreira for the IBF Lightweight World Title last year. Boasting championship experience, Boudersa stands as a stiff test for the surging Veyre..

ДЕТРОЙТ (Април 24, 2025) – Salita Promotions today announced the signing of reigning IBF Light Heavyweight World Champion Lani Daniels (11-2-2, 1 KO) and WBA Light Heavyweight World Champion Che Kenneally (5-0, 2 Нокаута) as the latest additions to an elite group of female boxers on the roster. Joining the most decorated female fighter of all time, and one of the most decorated male or female fighters in history, Undisputed Heavyweight World Champion Claressa Шийлдс, and newly signed Unified Super Middleweight World Champion Franchón Crews-Dezurn, Salita Promotions continues to build the strongest women’s roster in boxing.

“We are deeply committed to advancing equality in boxing by creating real opportunities for women to compete, succeed, and inspire on the world stage,"Заяви Дмитрий Salita, Президент на Salita Promotions. “Signing elite champions like Lani Daniels and Che Kenneally reflects our belief that women’s boxing deserves the same investment, visibility, and respect as the men’s game. We are proud to support their journey and help shape a future where talent and determination define success.”

Coined “The Smiling Assassin,” Daniels began her professional boxing career in 2017. Securing the ANBF Australasian Heavyweight title in 2023, Daniels earned a world title opportunity against Alrie Meleisea that same year for the IBF Heavyweight World title and won. After defending the belt once against South Africa’s Razel Mohammed, Daniels challenged for the IBF Light Heavyweight title against Desley Robinson. Winning the title bout via majority decision, Daniels made history by becoming the first New Zealand born fighter to win two world titles, as well as win two world titles in different weight divisions. Currently on the strength of seven-straight victories, Daniels has proven to be a fighter inside and outside of the ring. At 14-years-old, Daniels tragically lost her younger brother to leukemia, sending her down a troubled path with drugs and suicidal thoughts. Championing the importance of mental health, Daniels has become an inspiration for her home country as she continues to set records.

Following a masterclass performance in front of her hometown of the Gold Coast to win the vacant WBA Light Heavyweight title, the 6’0” tall Kenneally, 30, continues to shine and now joins Salita Promotions’ impressive slate of women’s champions. Making her professional debut in 2023, Kenneally trains out of Fiteklub Gold Coast alongside world-rated fighters including Demsey Mckean, Troy Pilcher, Brumo Tarimo and Alexander Devyatov. Salita Promotions and Fidel Tukel’s FK Events Australia will co-promote Che Kenneally’s bouts.

Boasting a roster that additionally includes undefeated world #1-ranked super lightweight Samantha Worthington, world #2-ranked featherweight Caroline Veyre, и #1 super bantamweight prospect and first woman to represent Puerto Rico in the Olympics Ashleyann Lozada, Daniels and Kenneally join Salita Promotions at a time when Promoter Дмитрий Salita increases his investment in women’s boxing.
