PETER QUILLIN TAKES ON MICHAEL ZERAFA IN FEATURED PREMIER BOXING CHAMPIONS ON NBC BOUT AT 4 P.M. ET/1 P.M. PT

Action Begins Inside the Arena at 1 p.m. ET!
MASHANTUCKET, Conn. (August 31, 2015) - Some of the top prospects from the Northeast including undefeated super featherweight Bryant "Pee Wee" Cruz (15-0, 8 KOs) will be showcased on a stacked undercard Saturday, September 12 live from Foxwoods Resort Casino in Mashantucket, CT with the first bout beginning at 1 p.m. ET.

The September 12 Premier Boxing Champions on NBC card is headlined by undefeated middleweight star Peter "Kid Chocolate" Quillin (31-0-1, 22 KOs) taking on Michael "Pretty Boy" Zerafa (17-1, 9 KOs) in a 10-round middleweight bout with world title implications on the line for former world champion Quillin. Super welterweight world champion Cornelius "K-9" Bundrage (34-5, 19 KOs) will defend his title against undefeated rising star Jermall Charlo (21-0, 16 KOs) in the co-main event. Live coverage begins at 4 p.m. ET/1 p.m. PT on NBC.

As part of the previously announced featured undercard bouts, two of the most promising prospects in boxing will put their undefeated records on the line as 2012 U.S. Olympian and highly-touted light heavyweight "Sir" Marcus Browne (15-0, 11 KOs), takes on former world champion Gabriel Campillo (25-7-1, 12 KOs), and undefeated middleweight Hugo "The Boss" Centeno (22-0, 12 KOs) meets Poland's Lukas Maciec (22-2-1, 5 KOs).

The Browne or Centeno fight could end up as a swing bout for the NBC broadcast pending the outcome of the two scheduled televised bouts.

Fighting on the non-televised portion of the undercard are top prospects representing New England, New York and Washington D.C.

The Undefeated super featherweight Cruz, fighting out of Port Chester, NY, puts his perfect record on the line in an eight-round bout.

Popular New York City super featherweight Gary Stark Jr. (24-3, 8 KOs) will be gunning for his second straight win of his comeback bid against former African champion Anthony Napunyi (15-15, 6 KOs) in a six-round match.

Washington D.C. super featherweight Antonio Russell (3-0, 2 KOs), the younger brother of reigning world super featherweight champion and 2008 U.S. Olympian Gary Russell, Jr., will compete in a six-round bout while undefeated super bantamweight world champion Shelly "Shelito's Way" Vincent (14-0, 1 KO) squares off against former Youth champion Brittany "Pretty Girl" Cruz (10-6-2, 2 KOs) in an eight-round non-title fight.

Also fighting on the undercard in a four-round matchup is Elmont, NY super featherweight Titus Williams (1-0), a 2013 New York Golden Gloves champion, taking on Benjamin Burgos (2-12-1), and a four-round featherweight bout featuring Timmy Ramos (1-0, 1 KO) of Framingham, MA.
