Promoter Don King Gives Thanks to Those That Have Fallen For Our Country on Memorial Day; Two Heavyweight Title Fights Highlight Saturday, June 11 Fight Card at Casino Miami Jai-Alai

PhilBoxing.com




MIAMI, FL (May 30, 2022)—Boxing promoter Don King continues to get ready for his Miami title fight card, “The Fight for Freedom and Peace” for the brave and courageous people of Ukraine on this Memorial Day.

“We have taken the time on this Memorial Day to thank those that have given their lives for our great country in our battle for freedom and peace,” said King. “This is a very important day to honor those men and women and their families with our thoughts and prayers. “I would also like to pass along my heartfelt condolences and prayers to those who lost their lives in Buffalo, NY in a racist massacre as well as to the 19 children and two teachers in Uvalde, TX. Our hearts and prayers go out to them and their families in this difficult time.”

King continues his fight for freedom and peace on Saturday, June 11 for the brave and courageous Ukranian people as he presents a night of title fights. The fight card will begin at 4 p.m. (doors open at 3:30 p.m.) and the main event featuring the WBA Heavyweight Championship as Trevor Bryan (22-0, 15 KOs) defends his title against the number one contender Daniel DuBois (17-1, 16KOs). The card will be held at the Casino Miami Jai-Alai and tickets are on sale for $100, $75 and $50 and can be purchased online at https://playcasinomiami.com. The card will also be presented on Pay-Per-View.

The other heavyweight title bout on the card will feature the NABA Gold Heavyweight title as champion DaCarree Scott (7-0, 6 KOs) from Decatur, GA will defend his belt against Jonathan Guidry (17-1-2, 5 KOs) from Dulac, LA.

Guidry will be fighting with a heavy heart as popular fight manager/promoter Les Bonano passed away Sunday at the age of 79. Guidry has dedicated the fight and his victory to a very dedicated Bonano. Promoter King, who has worked with Bonano for many years, said Bonano will be honored with a 10-bell count a week from Saturday.
