(March 2, 2017) - Middleweight's Tyrone Brunson is ready for his bout with Brandon Quarles that will be the eight-round main event on Saturday, March 11th as King's Promotions will stage it's first show at the SugarHouse Casino in Philadelphia. Brunson of Philadelphia has a record of 23-6-2, with 22 knockouts. The 32 year-old Brunson turned professional in 2005, and started his career with 19 consecutive 1st round knockouts. Included in that streak was a stoppage over James Morrow (8-1-2). In his last bout Brunson and Ismael Garcia fought to a 10-round draw on October 14, 2016 in Philadelphia. "My camp has been great," said Brunson. "I don't know much about Quarles, but I am coming to work. I don't know if he will be putting in the work that I will on March 11." Brunson, who a decade ago was destined for greatness, believes a win will put him right back in the mix for a title shot. "This win would put me closer to my dream. Weather it is fighting for the USBA title or the NABF, I know something big will come after this." "It is great to fight at home. It puts me in a comfort zone to fight in front of my home crowd. I want to thank King's Promotions for believing in me, and also want to thanks the fans of Philadelphia and around the world for sticking by me."

The 30 year-old Quarles is a 7 year veteran, and has won 5 straight fights, with the latest being 6-round unanimous decision over Marcos Primera on June 25, 2016 in Greensboro, North Carolina. "My training has gone really well," said Quarles. "I have seen Brunson fight on Showtime, and I haven't seen anything from him that is over my head. This is a good fight for me. I am going into his hometown as the B-Side on his promoters card, so I know what I have to do," Quarles realizes what a win would do to kickstart his career. "A win would boost my career. I am not just an opponent, I am a guy who comes to win. I am ready for a solid fight, and show the people what I am all about. I don't run my mouth, I let my fighting do the talking."
