Since Covid-19 began terrorizing our planet, infecting millions, killing thousands, the Central American nation of Nicaragua has only seen a grand total of 10 cases. That is truly unbelievably amazing...
The perfectly effective measures that Nicaraguans put in place completely neutralized the treacherous virus, keeping citizens healthy and safe, allowing boxing, sports and the lives of millions of Nicaraguans to continue pretty much normal.
That's why, this Saturday (April 25), Nicaragua dares to enjoy LIVE boxing... with fans in! The action will unfold at the Alexis Arguello Stadium in the country's capital city, Managua.
Such a public gathering could not even be imagined in most parts of the world, yet, for Nicaraguans, its alright... ohhh I envy them.
The Promoter is Nicaraguan former 2-division world champion Rosendo Alvarez, head of Buffalo Boxing (the kalbo gentleman in the middle of the boxers), who is more than ready to showcase a total of 8 exciting bouts for his fellow countrymen entertainment:
In the main event, Ramiro Blanco (former opponent of reigning world champion Xu Can) battles Robin Zamora in an action-packed lightweight clash.
For the co-feature -- which is also in the 135-pound division -- Freddy Fonseca collides against rough Alain Aguilar, an intriguing fight that no fan want to miss.
In welterweights, brutal puncher Gabriel Escalante engages ruthless combatant Mario Mairena in a rumble likely end via knockout, but who will knockout who?
Whats more, well-trained Franco Gutiérrez faces fearless Edwin Tercero; and featherweight Bryan Pérez wants to tame Lester “El Caballo” (The Horse) Lara.
Also, ancient warrior Jordan Escobar squares off Hervin Blass in the 118 pound weight-class
In the first duel of the evening, brave-heart Harold Ardon will exchange big blows against fast 'n furious Ángel Blass in a hot 4-rounder destined to thrill fans. 🔥🔥
Fans are in for a cool ride.
The card will be aired live in Latin America on ESPN Knockout.
May the Best Men Win..!! 👍
