?The New Generation Boxing Series? Launches Saturday Night Fights Return June 18 in Hartford PhilBoxing.com Sat, 28 May 2011 HARTFORD (May 26, 2011) ? Bulldog Cartel Promotions launches its ?The New Generation Boxing Series? Saturday night, June 18 at the Connecticut Convention Center in Hartford. ?We?re committed to bringing Saturday night pro boxing back to Connecticut and showcasing the pool of young talent here right at home,? promoter Craig Salamone said. ?Our shows will feature old-fashioned boxers in entertaining, competitive fights for local bragging rights. These young guys need to fight in order to improve and a build fan base. Bulldog Cartel Promotions is going to give them that opportunity on a regular basis.? The eight-round main event features a pair of dangerous cruiserweights sporting deceiving records, Joshua ?Juice? Harris (7-4-1, 5 KOs) and Harvey ?Candy Man? Jolly (11-17-1, 6 KOs). Harris, of Providence, registered a shocking first-round knockout of Alexis Mejias (10-1) two years ago, while Jolly did the same thing against previously undefeated Nicholas Iannuzzi (12-0), who recently lost a controversial decision to budding star Lateef Kayode. The eight-round co-feature is an interesting match-up between a talented prospect, undefeated Hartford welterweight Javier ?El Chino? Flores (5-0, 5 KOs), against 35-year-old veteran Shaka Moore (11-15-3, 2 KOs). Puerto Rica-native Flores is coming off of a sensational second-round knockout of Marcus Hall this past February. Moore, of Norwalk, won a four-round bout by technical decision versus Noel Garcia in April at the Connecticut Convention Center. Another hot prospect, super middleweight Lamar Russ (7-0, 5 KOs) puts his perfect record on the line against TBA. Russ, now fighting out of Hartford, upset Haitian Olympian Elie Augustama by six-round decision in December. Promising junior featherweight Luis Rosa, Jr. (6-0, 5 KOs), representing New Haven, meets TBA in a six-rounder. Also fighting on the undercard in four-round bouts are New Haven junior welterweight Carlos Hernandez (0-2) against Springfield?s (MA) Barrington Douse (0-1), along with three New Haven boxers making their pro debuts ? lightweight Oscar Bonilla vs. TBA, junior featherweight Josh Crespo vs. Frankie Garriga and super middleweight Charles Foster vs. Lee Snow. Garriga and Snow will also be making their pro debuts. Former world light middleweight champion Vincent ?The Ambassador? Pettway will be working the corners of Jolley and Snow. Tickets are priced at $80.00 (ringside) and $40.00 (general admission) and available to purchase by going on line to www.WorldClassTickets.com, at the Connecticut Convention Center box office, and calling 860.759.8898 or 203.889.1222.  |
