Some of the most well known and popular stars in the UK have been training for months with many daily hours in the gym to be a part of this presentation. I’m really looking forward to this as I have a feeling it’s going to be something special. Let’s get ready to rumble!” Headlining the event is DJ and Celebs go Dating star Tom Zanetti. The Co-Mains are Celebrity BIg Brother’s Dan Osborne vs. Love Island’s Jamie Jewitt and two Real Housewives of Cheshire stars will settle their differences in the ring: Rachel Lugo and Leanne Brown.

Tom Zanetti is going to be a fantastic fight, but I think the ladies Leanne Brown vs Rachel Lugo could be the fight of the night. I have a vision with these events, and I think people will be blown away by the level of fighters we have engaged. It is going to be an incredible journey; hope you join me! I have worked my whole life promoting boxing shows both professional and amateur but this event opens up a whole new market, we already have Jake Paul and others in the USA making noise, my aim is to create a team to represent the UK talent and host a TransAtlantic mega show” Boxstar Celebrity Boxing: A New Kind of Ratings War takes place on October 2nd beginning at 8 PM BST / 2 PM EST /11 AM PST. $14.99 US/CA/UK/IE/Australia/NZ and $9.99 Rest of the World.
