People respond to Flori. Dmitry and his promotional team will be very happy with the fan support that Floriano brings" quoted Rich Komissar, the American promoter for Pagliara. "His fans support him" added Komissar The move to featherweight is something that the Italian has been thinking of since his move to America a few years back.

But in America I have the best training for this and now I am never more than 132 lbs when I am regular time and not training" said the affable Italian with his operatic dialect. "Star of David Promotions is happy to add this bout as a co feature" said Dmitry Salita of Star of David Promotions. "I have seen Floriano fight a few times here in New York Area. He is far and away one of the New York Area's most popular fighters. He always brings a good crowd and he gives a great show. I believe the matchup we are giving you here (Pagliara / Robertson) will produce an all out action packed fight that the fans will like. Antwan Robertson is never in a dull fight. He reminds me a little bit of Junior Jones... This fight will be a war". The Brooklyn Brawl Series will hop over the river to Manhattan for this show on January 22nd. The card will be held at the world famous Webster Hall 125 East 11th Street NYC New York 10003. There will be a press conference this Thursday at Capizzi Restaurant at 2 PM.
