Baltimore Boxing Promotions to host Breast Cancer Benefit July 13!

PhilBoxing.com


Baltimore, MD (June 24, 2012) ? Jake Smith?s Baltimore Boxing Promotions returns to the Du Burns Arena Friday, July 13 for ?Knockout Breast Cancer,? a special benefit event loaded with local talent.

A percentage of the evening?s proceeds will go to the American Breast Cancer Foundation and tickets from $25 are available on Baltimoerboxing.com or by calling 410-375-9175. All ticketholders are encouraged to wear pink to help raise awareness for breast cancer.

Headlining the action-packed card is a middleweight title bout between reigning champion Jerome Featherstone and Ryan Watson. An elite wrestler in both high school and college, Featherstone?s undefeated inside the squared circle. The crowd favorite has also improved rapidly since lacing up a pair of gloves for the first time less than a year ago.

The co-featured bout of the evening will be a rematch between Amelia Moore and Floria Vibe. The two met earlier this year in a crowd-pleasing contest and in addition to bragging rights, the winner of the second go-round receives the Knockout Breast Cancer championship.

Nationally ranked female superstar Franchon Crews and former Penn State boxing captain A.J. Williams will also appear in separate matches on the 10 bout fight card.

?This is going to be a heck of a card,? exclaimed Smith, a member of the Maryland and D.C. Boxing Hall of Fames. ?We?ve got some of the top fighters from the Baltimore area on this card and more importantly, we?re helping to knockout breast cancer.?

All bouts are sanctioned by USA Boxing.

The Du Burns Arena is located at 1301 S. Elwood Ave in Baltimore. Doors open at 6:30 and the first bout is slated for 8 pm.
