STARS FROM OUR NATION'S CAPITAL ON SATURDAY PhilBoxing.com Thu, 16 May 2019 Surpassing the six-million views mark, the fan-friendly Facebook platform carries a big weekend card from the Capital City. Online: https://www.facebook.com/FaceFIGHTNIGHTLIVE/ NEW YORK (May 15, 2019) - Having recently surpassed the six-million views mark and celebrating its second anniversary, FIGHTNIGHT LIVE Powered by Everlast next sets its sights on our nation's capital, ready to deliver a big Washington, D.C., card on Saturday. Beginning at 7:15 p.m. ET live from the new Entertainment and Sports Arena, the interactive, FREE Facebook channel will feature seven bouts from the Capital, the 21st city which has played host to the series. "Our tenth show of the calendar year takes us to our nation's capital, and we're really excited about featuring a world-class individual in Alantez Fox, decorated police officer Tiara Brown and a new group of warriors from the DMV on our Facebook platform," said Mark Fratto, Principal and Director of Business Development, Linacre Media. "In addition to the venerable Michael Woods, we'll have WBC World Champion Franchon Crews-Dezurn as part of our commentary team, and that on the heels of us surpassing six million views at our second anniversary. It's been an exciting year so far for FIGHTNIGHT LIVE." Saturday's FIGHTNIGHT LIVE lineup is headlined by contender Alantez "SlyAza" Fox (24-1-1, 11 KOs), who has stood out not only in the D.C. area but on the national stage as well. Fox faces an experienced foe in Nick Brinson (19-4-2, 9 KOs) of upstate New York in a super middleweight contest across eight rounds. Recently named "Washington D.C. Police Officer of the Year," undefeated pro Tiara Brown (7-0) meets four-time world title challenger Angel Gladney (10-14-1, 6 KOs) of South Carolina. Area standouts Patrick Harris (15-0, 8 KOs), Jordan White (7-1, 6 KOs), Sam Crossed (8-0, 5 KOs), Renaldo Gaines (9-2, 3 KOs) and George Harris (2-0, 2 KOs) all put their formidable records on the line, free on Facebook. "Tricky Entertainment is committed to bringing world-class boxing back to D.C.," said Erwin Pendergrast, President of Tricky Entertainment. "Our Tricky Entertainment Family had a great show last winter and the fact that we'll have a global audience for Saturday's show via Facebook FIGHTNIGHT LIVE is a testament to the direction we're headed in and how much we're growing."
