Monica Sears

Thank you very much, Krista. I want to thank everyone for taking the time out of your day to join us for today?s call. On the line we have Kendall Holt as well as Danny Garcia and Dave Itskowitch of Golden Boy Promotions, as well as Gary Shaw of Gary Shaw Productions.

After the beginning portion of this call we will be joined by Paulie Malignaggi who will be facing Orlando Lora on the card as well. After all of that we will get him on the lines. Without further ado I?d like Dave to take it from here. Thanks.

David Itskowitch

Thanks a lot, Monica. Thank you everyone for joining us here today for a show that all of us at Golden Boy and Gary Shaw Productions are very proud of, very excited about top to bottom a great Pay-Per-View event headlined by Bernard Hopkins versus Chad Dawson. Underneath that will also be: Antonio DeMarco and Jorge Linares for the vacant WBC Lightweight World title. Of course as we have on the call today Kendall Holt versus Danny Garcia for the NABO Junior Welterweight title. As Monica mentioned, Paul Malignaggi versus Orlando Lora?October 15th Staples Center live on Pay-Per-View.

Also though good seats still available. We urge everyone in L.A. to come out?get your tickets. It?s going to be a great night of boxing starting at just $25?you can?t really go wrong. Also want to acknowledge and thank our sponsors: Cerveza Tecate, AT&T, and Ripley?s Believe It or Not.

Now I?d like to turn the call over to say a few words about Kendall Holt and introduce Kendall, our co-promoter and my friend, Mr. Gary Shaw.

Gary Shaw

Thank you, Dave. Thank you to the reporters that are on this call?really appreciate you coming in. It will be a great night of boxing as Dave said. The Kendall Holt/Danny Garcia fight will have a seasoned veteran and a former world champion fighting with a young guy that?s up and coming and is looking to make a name for himself or for Kendall Holt.

I don?t think it will happen. I?ve seen Kendall and know how he trains. He trains hard. He?s a single parent that donates all his time ? boxing to his son and there is a lot to be said for that. He?s had a real rough life coming up. He won the world title and he had some trouble defending it. His team has changed completely; Kendall has changed completely and I think you?ll see a new Kendall Holt on October 15th.
