PhilBoxing.com





EVENT SET TO TAKE PLACE FRIDAY, JUNE 7, AT THE SEMINOLE HARD ROCK HOTEL & CASINO

FT. LAUDERDALE, FL (May 16, 2024)
– Ahead of the highly anticipated “Fists of Fury” event on Friday, June 7, at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino
in Ft. Lauderdale, FL, the world’s greatest promoter Don King addressed the media alongside the fighters featured on the star-studded card.

WBC World Cruiserweight champion
Noel “The Dark Horse” Mikaelian (27-2, 12 KOs) of Miami will attempt to defend his world title for the first time when he takes on number one challenger
Ryan “The Bruiser” Rozicki (20-1, 19 KOs) from Ontario, Canada. The always-exciting
Ian “The Young General” Green (18-2, 12 KOs) returns to action when he puts his WBA Continental USA Middleweight Title on the line against Toldedo’s
Roy Barringer (10-4, 6 KOs). In addition, WBA NABA Light Heavyweight Champion
Ahmed “The American Pharoah” Elbiali (23-1, 18 KOs) will defend his title against
Roamer Alexis Angulo (28-3, 23 KOs). WBC International Lightweight Champion
Antonio Perez (9-0, 5 KOs) will square off against Antonio Williams
(16-0-1, 7 KOs) while WBA Continental North American Heavyweight Champion Cassius Chaney
(23-1, 16 KOs) collides with Las Vegas’ Michael “The Bounty” Hunter (21-1-2, 15 KOs). Lastly, the WBC People’s Championship will feature former four-division world champion
Adrien “The Problem” Broner (35-4-1, 24 KOs) and fan-favorite Blair “The Flair” Cobbs
(16-1-1, 10 KOs).

Tickets are available through Ticketmaster for “Fist of Fury.” Tickets are priced at $75, $100 and $200. Ringside seats are $500 and tables are priced at $5,500.

Don King:

“We are going to be here and bring boxing back to the fans, where it rightly belongs. I am very excited and pleased to do so. June 7 will be an exciting evening and will be second to none. We will be able to bring you Adrien “The Problem” Broner, and he is a problem, but so am I.”

“Most of these guys will fight better than they talk. That’s what they are. They are fighters. They are in the hurt business, and they don’t sit around and cry. This is the business to hurt people. We play the cards we are dealt, and we deal with them.”

Adrien Broner:

“Now look at all this clown s—t and none of this clown s—t will work in the ring. People say I’m a clown but I’m a different type of clown.

He’s (Cobbs) a clown in the circus. I’m “IT.” I’m some scary type of clown. It gets scary when you talk about me. That s—t isn’t going to work on me.”

“June 7, I want everyone to come out. This time I don’t need to say anything, he’s doing everything for me. I’m about to f—k this guy up.

I look at him like Bill Haney if he was a boxer, no disrespect to Bill Haney. June 7 is doomsday and I’m training good. I’m training in Las Vegas with my little brother Tank (Davis). A lot of people thought I wouldn’t show up but I’m in shape and I can’t wait to put on a great performance. So, everyone come out and we’re about to get money. Let’s go Don, we got money to make.”

Blair Cobbs:

“It’s none other than Blair “The Flair,” the most exciting man in boxing. I come out blazing like never before. You guys are going to see something that you’ve never seen before. Things that are going to happen to Broner are going to be things never seen before. You guys are going to see action-packed performances, and this is all that I am about. I’ve been born for this moment. I’ve been waiting for this moment for a long time. I’ve been looking for this moment for a long time. I’ve been begging for this moment for a long time. I’ve been praying for this moment for a long time. Thank you, Don King, because Don King is back in action. June 7, I’ve arrived.”

Noel Mikaelian:

“First of all, thank you everyone for the attendance. I am really excited to fight at this beautiful location. Thank you, Don, for putting on this show. It will be a good fight. I’ll be defending my world title. I’m looking forward to bigger fights and this one is just like a training fight.”

Ryan Rozicki:

“I’m not really much of a talker, I’m here to knock him out or he’s going to knock me out. And that’s it.”

Ian Green:

“First and foremost, I want to thank God, my team, my trainers, and my management team. If you know me, you know I am a man of a few words. But one thing I will say, you’re looking at the No. 1 middleweight in the world. You’re looking at one of the best pound-for-pound fighters in the world. You guys are probably looking at me like I am crazy. But every person who did amazing, legendary things was once looked at like they were crazy. So, on June 7, I am going to steal the show.”

Antonio Williams:

“I want to thank everyone for coming out and thank you, Don King. I just can’t wait for June 7. I’m going to work. I’ve been grinding for this man. I’ve been waiting for this opportunity.”
