PhilBoxing.com


'THE CONTENDER' VETERAN DEON ELAM ADDED TO "FIGHT NIGHT CLUB" LINEUP ON APRIL 22

UNBEATEN KHABIR SULEYMANOV ALSO IN ACTION AT CLUB NOKIA IN LOS ANGELES

LOS ANGELES, April 21 - Highly regarded Los Angeles prospects Deon Elam and Khabir Suleymanov will defend their home turf at L.A. LIVE's Club Nokia on Thursday, April 22, as they take on Andre Hemphill and Benji Garcia, respectively, in featured six round bouts on the latest edition of the boxing's hardest-hitting monthly series, "Fight Night Club".

In the main event, super middleweight standout Enrique Ornelas of La Habra, California will face off against Cary, North Carolina's Julius Fogle in a bout scheduled for eight rounds.

Los Angeles cruiserweight Deon Elam (10-1, 5 KO's) followed up a stellar amateur career (that included two National Golden Gloves appearances and a berth in the 2004 Olympic trials) with nine straight wins as a professional before he entered the world of reality television as a contestant in the season four cast of 'The Contender.' On the show, Elam won one of two bouts, and on April 22 he will fight for the first time since leaving the show's set in Singapore when he takes on Philadelphia battler Andre Hemphill (8-14-2, 5 KO's) in a six rounder.

A native of Chelyabinsk, Russia who now makes his home in Los Angeles, junior featherweight Khabir Suleymanov (9-0, 4 KO's) has drawn rave reviews throughout his young career, and added even more fans last October when he made his "Fight Night Club" debut with a fourth round knockout of Hugo Ramos. This week he returns to Club Nokia to take on the always-tough Benji Garcia (14-13-3, 1 KO) of San Diego in the opening television bout on Fox Sports Net.

In welterweight action scheduled for four rounds, Los Angeles will also be represented by unbeaten David Aleman (1-0, 1 KO), who will face fellow unbeaten rising star Clint Cornel (2-0-1, 1 KO) of San Jose, Calif.

Debuting Lancaster, California native Roberto Reyes will step through the ropes for the first time as a pro this week to face Long Beach's Anthony McDavitt (1-2) in a four round welterweight bout. Local junior lightweights will also be in action as San Bernardino's Juan Sandoval (1-1, 1 KO) squares off against LA's Luis Martinez (1-3-1) in a scheduled four round fight.

Opening the show will be a four round light heavyweight bout between Hiromitsu Miura (1-0), who hails from Las Vegas by way of Tokyo, Japan, and Nashville's Nathan Bedwell (0-1), a former mixed martial arts contender who is now lacing up boxing gloves..
