Granite Chin Promotions bringing pro boxing back to Bridgewater “Fight Night at the Vets Club III”

PhilBoxing.com





February 15 in Bridgewater, Mass.

QUINCY, Mass. (February 3, 2025) – Granite Chin Promotions (GCP) is bringing professional boxing back to Bridgewater (MA) on February 15th, partnering again with the Fire For Effect Foundation, for “Fight Night at The Vets Club III” at the Bridgewater Veterans Club in Bridgewater, Massachusetts.

Based in Bridgewater, the mission of the Fire For Effect Foundation is to honor and empower veterans, first responders and their families by providing essential resources, support and community-building initiatives that foster resilience, restore hope, and strengthen the fabric of our community. Go to www.ffefinc.org for more information.

The headliner is a six-round super middleweight bout between a pair of throwback fighters, Ross “The Maestro” Rodriguez (3-1, 1 KO), fighting out of Braintree (MA), and Maine’s always tough Ryan Clark (4-7-1, 2 KOs).

Rodriguez, 32, will be fighting in Bridgewater for the first time as a pro, while Clark returns for his fifth time there, posting a 2-1-1 record in Bridgewater, including a hard-fought eighth-round split-draw last September versus Julien Baptiste (7-4).

“As always,” Clark said, “I’m grateful to be given the opportunity to fight again and share the ring with a class-act boxer. My fight style doesn’t change because I’m providing action for the working class who are attending these fights. Our job in the ring is to entertain and that’s what I always plan to do. I know Ross and he is a good, tough kid who is always up for a great fight.”

Kingston (MA) junior middleweight Rich Allen will make his long-awaited pro debut in a four-rounder versus Tymar Miles. Allen is a school resources police officer at Silver Lake High School. He started boxing at 16 but put down his gloves for a few years to attend the University of Massachusetts at Boston. He then resumed boxing in the amateurs. College and work never kept Allen out of the gym even if he wasn’t competing.

“The time is right for me to go pro,” Allen explained. “I had my first son two years ago and I didn’t want to be 40 wishing I had gone pro. I’m taking it one fight at a time, and we’ll see how this fight goes. I’m competitive and my friends are all getting behind me. I’m really excited, everybody I know is excited.”

Popular Worcester (MA) welterweight Dan “Grafton Hill’s Favorite Son” Docimo (1-0, 1 KO) is matched a four-rounder versus Jaequez Jones. Docimo is a locksmith by trade who will have his close friend, The Contenders I star Peter Manfredo, Jr., in his corner.

Hyde Park (MA) junior welterweight Jenn Perella, a 2024 National Golden Gloves silver medalist, will be seeking her initial victory as a pro against Shaunteya McNair in a four-round match.

Two other four-round bouts on the undercard include New York middleweight Austin Cassese (1-0, 1 KO) vs. Ratavious Thrasher, and 18-year-old Chicopee (MA) welterweight Adrian Valdez Reyes (2-0, 2 KOs) vs. David Rodrigues.

Card subject to change.

Tickets are priced at $75.00 (VIP stage seating), $60.00 (floor seats), $45.00 (standing room only), and $420.00 for ringside tables of 4 are available for purchase at www.Granite-Chin-Promotions.ticketleap.com.

Doors open at 6:00 p.m. ET, first bout at 7 p.m. ET.

Bridgewater TV is taping the event live for replay the week after the fight.
