‘Brick City Fight Night Series’ at Prudential Center on Saturday, October 12 in Newark, New Jersey

Tickets start at $60 and go on sale August 27

NEWARK, NEW JERSEY (August 23, 2024) -- The Brick City Fight Night Series returns to Prudential Center in Newark, New Jersey on Saturday, October 12, presenting some of the best boxing talent from New Jersey, New York City and beyond.

Brick City Fight Night Series will be presented by Rising Star Promotions and Prudential Center, with twelve bouts scheduled, from the flyweight division up to the heavyweights. Tickets, priced at $306, $231, $121, and $60, go on sale on Tuesday, August 27 at 12 p.m. ET, and can be purchased at www.prucenter.com or www.Ticketmaster.com.

The ten round main event will feature Newark's own Michael Anderson. “Slick” Anderson (24-3-1, 17 KOs) has wins over Dashon Johnson (11-2-3), DeMarcus Rogers (14-3-1) and a fifth round knockout of Eudy Bernardo (25-6) in his last bout. Anderson, a welterweight on a seven fight win streak, is no stranger to the Prudential Center crowd, having fought four of his last five bouts at the venue.

In the co-featured bout, two bantamweights will fight for the opportunity to become a top contender in the 118-pound division. Hometown favorite Emmanuel “Salserito” Rodriguez (15-2, 8 KOs) of Newark, N.J. will face Brooklyn’s Khalid Twaiti (13-0, 5 KOs) in a ten round bout, with the USBA Regional and WBA Fedalatin titles up for grabs.

“This is what boxing is all about: fighters stepping up to take on challenges. It’s a true blessing to bring an event to Prudential Center. I’m more than happy for this opportunity. This event will be one to remember,” said promoter Thomas “Cornflake” LaManna, who is also the current WBA Middleweight Gold World champion.

“Prudential Center is very excited to partner with Rising Star Promotions to welcome some of the best boxing talent in New Jersey and the tri-state area for the biggest edition of Brick City Fight Night Series, to date” said Dylan Wanagiel, VP of Sports Properties & Special Events for Prudential Center. “We look forward to Saturday, October 12 which will be a night full of electrifying boxing action while continuing to celebrate the ‘Sweet Science’ in Brick City.”

Also seeing action in an eight round bout, Newark’s own Anthony Johns (8-1, 6 KOs) makes his return to Prudential Center when he faces an opponent to be named. Johns, a 2019 National Golden Gloves champion, brings an all action style that makes him a popular attraction throughout the state.

One of the region’s most popular heavyweights, Kristian Prenga (15-1, 15 KOs) will make his second straight appearance at Prudential Center. Prenga, an Albania native who now resides in Edgewater, N.J., has won all of his 15 victories by knockout, including nine within the first two rounds.

In a crossroads junior welterweight fight, Terell Bostic (12-2, 2 KOs) of Wyandanch, N.Y. will face Jersey City’s Michael Lee (10-3, 7 KOs) in an eight round bout. Bostic is coming off a career best win in his last bout, defeating Carlos Rosario in June by sixth round stoppage to win the WBA Fedecentro lightweight belt. Lee is moving down a weight class as he seeks to rebuild the momentum in his career.

Two New Jersey heavyweights will make their professional debuts against one another as Erasmo Rosado Jr. of Paterson faces Woodbury’s Douglas Walsh.

Other boxers slated for action include Ghandi Romain (4-1, 4 KOs) of Newark, Kahshad Elliot (2-0, 2 KOs) of Plainfield, N.J., Jean Pierre Valencia (1-0, 1 KO) of Irvington, N.J., Quaseem Carter (5-1, 4 KOs) of Newark, Justin Palmieri (2-0, 1 KO) of Maple Shade, N.J., and Jose “Chocolatito” Gonzalez (19-0-2, 7 KOs) of Harlem, N.Y.

Brick City Fight Night Series is proudly partnering with the Greater Newark Convention & Visitor’s Bureau, The City of Newark Office of Violence Prevention, González Tullio & Blache, LLC and Trifecta Sports for this event.

Doors for Brick City Fight Night Series open at 6 p.m., with the first bout scheduled to begin at 6:10 p.m.
