 ЛАС ВЕГАС (Април 5, 2016) – у априлу 16тх10-round main event between Canadian welterweight Стеве “The Dragon” Цлаггетт and South Africa-native Крис “Хеат” Ван Хеерден embodies the “Knockout Night at the D” philosophy in terms of featuring action fighters in evenly matched, entertaining bouts.
The “Knockout Night at the D” серија, presented by Д Лас Вегас иДовнтовн Лас Вегас Евентс Центер(ДЛВЕЦ), промовише Рои Јонес Јр. (RJJ) Boxing Promotions.
aPR. 16тх “Knockout Night at the D” event will air Субота ноћ, Април 16 (8 п.м. ПТ / 11 п.м. И), ливе он ЦБС Спортс Нетворк from under the neon lights at the DLVEC outdoor venue.
The broadcast team includes Jim “ЈР” Ross, Шон Вилок и бивши светски шампион Кевин “The Flushing Flash” Kelley. Joe Martinez is the ring announcer.
Claggett vs. Van Heerden is a crossroads fight for both boxers with critical consequences, especially for the winner who will use it as an invaluable springboard for his boxing career.
The 26-year-old Claggett (23-3-1, 16 КОс), who is the reigning Canadian Professional Boxing Council and Canadian welterweight champion, is thrilled to be fighting in Las Vegas for the first time. “То је остварење сна,” he explained. “I’ve trained in Las Vegas often but now it’s time to show what I can do there in a fight. A win will open many doors for me and could potentially lead to a path that will set up the rest of my boxing life. Needless to say, I am focused and prepared for the opportunity.”

Цлаггетт, as well as Van Heerden, are known as high-action fighters, throwing punches in bunches, and something eventually has to give. Ван Хеерден (23-1-1, 12 КОс), fighting out of Santa Monica (КАО ШТО СУ), is a former International Boxing Organization (ИБО) и Међународна федерација Бокс (ИБФ) шампион.
“Van Heerden is a rangy, quick and active fighter,” Claggett said. “I have an action style but, for many years, I was strictly a pressure fighter with a good body shot. У данашње време, мада, I have a couple of more tricks up my sleeve. His heart and durability have been shown and is to be respected. This match-up is sure to produce some good exchanges. I expect this to be a high-action fight between two hungry fighters with him coming off a loss (to unbeaten rising star Ерол Спенс Јр. прошлог септембра) and me coming off more than one fight falling through. This is a great match up. He is similar to the style of (Konstantin)Ponomarev (who Claggett lost an 8-round decision to last year) with range and movement. And that motivates me!”
