MARCH 12 MOHEGAN SUN BOXING EVENT CANCELED
PhilBoxing.com Thu, 25 Feb 2016
NEW YORK (Feb. 24, 2016)?After extensive discussions between DiBella Entertainment, Showtime Networks and Mohegan Sun, the March 12 boxing event has been canceled.
Following the injury to Keith Thurman and the postponement of the Thurman vs. Porter bout, we evaluated several options for salvaging the card, but various factors, including scheduling and programming issues, prevented the parties involved from doing so.
The featherweight bout between fellow three-division world champions Abner Mares and Fernando Montiel will remain paired with the Thurman vs. Porter welterweight world championship event, which is being rescheduled for a later date on CBS. The other bouts on the card will be rescheduled on a date or dates to be announced.
"Every effort was made to move forward with the remainder of this excellent card, despite the tight time frame," said Lou DiBella, President of DiBella Entertainment. "However, scheduling conflicts and other factors forced us to make the unfortunate decision to cancel the entire event. There are a number of attractive fights on the table and we look forward to presenting all of them to the fans as soon as possible."
Tickets purchased for the March 12 event will be refunded at the point of purchase.
