New Haven Six to be showcased June 18 on ?The New Generation Boxing Series? in Hartford PhilBoxing.com Tue, 14 Jun 2011 HARTFORD (June 13, 2011) ? Undefeated, highly-regarded junior featherweight Luis Rosa, Jr. (6-0, 5 KOs) lead the New Haven Six into the Connecticut Convention Center in Hartford this Saturday night, launching ?The New Generation Boxing Series,? presented by Bulldog Cartel Promotions, Saturday night, June 18 at. ?This new series is all about Connecticut boxers fighting at home,? said former pro boxer and new Bulldog Cartel promoter Craig Salamone. ?There are a lot of talented, young boxers in this state and our goal is to get them fighting at home on a regular basis in order for them to build fan-bases. We have six New Haven-based fighters on this show and our plans call for us to promote our next show in New Haven later this summer.? The eight-round main event features two veteran cruiserweights sporting deceiving records, Joshua ?Juice? Harris (7-4-1, 5 KOs), of Providence, and Harvey ?Candy Man? Jolly (11-17-1, 6 KOs). Undefeated Puerto Rican welterweight prospect Javier ?El Chino? Flores (5-0, 5 KOs), now fighting out of Hartford, takes on veteran Shaka Moore (11-15-3, 2 KOs), of Norwalk, in the eight-round co-feature. Rosa, Jr. (6-0, 5 KOs), who recently signed a promotional contract DiBella Entertainment, takes on dangerous Shawn ?Bones? Nichol (5-4, 5 KOs) in a six-round bout. As a heralded amateur boxer, Rosa was a two-time New England Golden Gloves champion and 2009 USA Boxing National Championship silver medalist, which earned him a spot on the US National Boxing Team. New Haven favorites such as lightweight Oscar Bonilla, junior featherweight Josh Crespo and super middleweight Charles Foster will all be making their pro debuts in four-round matches, respectively, versus Corey White (1-1, 1 KO) and a pro debuting pair of opponents, Frankie Garriga and Lee Snow. Two other New Haven boxers are slated to be in action June 18: junior welterweight Carlos Hernandez (0-2) and undefeated super lightweight Christian Lao (2-0, 1 KOs), who will square-off, respectively, against Barrington Douse (0-1) and Javier Calderon (1-0, 1 KO). All fights and fighters are subject to change. Former world light middleweight champion Vincent ?The Ambassador? Pettway will be working the corners of Jolley and Snow.
