Hogan Set to Take on Abril in Main Event

The next installment of "Championship Boxing on CBS Sports Network", scheduled for Friday, June 26, 2015, from the Seneca Niagara Resort & Casino in Niagara Falls, New York, is taking shape.

Presented by Greg Cohen Promotions in association with Adam Wilcock's Fight Card Promotions, Vito Mielnicki's GH3 Promotions, Dmitriy Salita's Star Of David Promotions and produced by David Schuster's Winner Take All Productions, the night's 10-round main event will feature WBA #11- and IBF #6-rated Dennis "Hurricane" Hogan (21-0-1, 7 KOs) of Queensland, Australia (via Kildare, Ireland), making the first defense of his WBA-NABA US Super Welterweight Championship against local favorite Kenny Abril (14-7-1, 7 KOs) of Rochester, New York.

Tickets for "Championship Boxing on CBS Sports Network" are priced at $35 and $45, and ringside seating is $75 and can be purchased with a major credit card by calling Ticketmaster at (800) 745-3000, online at Ticketmaster.com or through the Seneca Niagara Casino Box Office: (716) 501-2444.

In the co-featured bout, Canada's WBA #14-rated Tony "Lightning" Luis (19-3, 7 KOs) returns to the ring for the first time since his highly controversial "loss" to England's Derry Matthews for the WBA World Championship last April. Luis will take on tough veteran Edward Valdez (13-10-2, 3 KOs) in a 10-rounder.

And in two very special added features, American heavyweight knockout artist Jarrell "Big Baby" Miller (13-0-1, 10 KOs) will return to the ring just 22 days after his main-event TKO 2 over Damon McCreary to take on local slugger Excell Holmes of Buffalo in a six-rounder; and long-time top middleweight contender "Mean" Joe Greene (25-1, 16 KOs) will return to the ring for the first time in over two years to face Michigan's Guy Packer in a six-rounder.

On the undercard, two local prospects will make their pro debuts, as Rochester, New York, super featherweight Hashuan Sambolin will go his first four against Cincinnati's Micah Branch; and Buffalo lightweight Daniel DeJesus will make his debut against TBA. And rounding the action, Kazakhstan's undefeated Bakhtiyer Eubov will look to keep his perfect 5-0, 5 KOs record intact against New York welterweight Jason Thompson (5-10-4, 4 KOs).

The Seneca Niagara Casino & Hotel is located at 310 4th Street in Niagara Falls, New York. For more information, call 716.299.1100, or visit www.senecaniagaracasino.com.
