Tyrone Brunson looks for big win over DeCarlo Perez this Saturday night at 2300 Arena in Philadelphia


 

Philadelphia (October 15 2014) - This Saturday night at the 2300 Arena in Philadelphia, one of the biggest punchers in the sport, Tyrone "Young Gun" Brunson (22-2-1, 21 KO's) returns to the his hometown for the first time in 9 and a half years when he takes on Atlantic City's DeCarlo Perez (12-3-1, 4 KO's) in a scheduled 8-round Jr. Middleweight bout.

The bout is promoted by Main Events, Peltz Boxing and BAM Boxing.

Brunson, who burst on to the scene in 2005 and set the world record for 19 consecutive 1st round knockouts to start his career is looking to restart his promising career.  He knows that all can happen with a win over Perez.

"It is going to be a good fight.  I am well prepared.  This is the best training camp I have ever had and I have to thank my manager Mark Cipparone and Club 1957 Management for that," said Brunson.

He is facing the tough Perez, who himself is on a roll as he has won six of his last seven bouts which includes wins over Dante Moore (8-0-2), Jarmar Freeman (9-1-2) and his last bout when he defeated Marcus Willis (13-3-2).

"I do not know much about Perez.  I heard he is a rugged guy and he comes to fight."

Brunson gained a lot of fanfare all over the world as he was amassing all of those knockout victories, three of which came in New Zealand.

"I am past that record.  This is a rebirth and fans will see a new Tyrone Brunson.  I consider this fight my 2nd pro debut."

With a new team, led by Cipparone, Brunson has been given a proper training camp and knows he is in the right situation to realize his potential.

"I have been doing things in this camp that I have never done before.  Mark has made me very comfortable for this camp."

With his record, Brunson feels that he is not far away from competing in meaningful fights but a win over Perez is a must for that to occur.

"I plan to close the year with one fight after this.  I can see after three fights tops that I can compete for a regional title.  After that a world title.  But now, Perez is my only focus and then I will go from there."

"I want to thank my supporters from day one.  I hope everybody will come out and enjoy this fight card.", finished Brunson

UNBEATEN BURGIN RETURNS HOME ON MAY 16 PRELIMINARY CARD AT 2300 ARENA IN SOUTH PHILLY

 
     Philadelphia, PA—Unbeaten lightweight Anthony Burgin makes his first local start in 17 months when he takes on fellow-Philadelphian Ramon Ellis in a scheduled six-round lightweight contest on Friday evening, May 16, at the 2300 Arena in South Philadelphia.
 
   Topping the seven-bout card is a pair of eight-round contests: Naim Nelson, of Philadelphia, and Jerome Rodriguez, of Trenton, NJ, junior welterweights; Joey Dawejko, Philadelphia, vs. Mark Rideout, Philadelphia, heavyweights.
 
     The seven-bout program is first pro fight card at the 2300 Arena since Jan. 21, 2012, when then-unknown heavyweight prospect Bryant Jennings upset Maurice Byarm in a battle of undefeated Philadelphians to open the NBC Sports Network Fight Night series.
 
     Formerly known as the ECW Arena, the New Alhambra and later the Asylum Arena, the 2300 Arena, located at Swanson & Ritner Streets in South Philadelphia, has undergone renovations and eventually will seat close to 1,700 spectators for boxing. 
 
     First fight May 16 is set for 7.30p.m.  The card is being promoted by Peltz Boxing and BAM Boxing in association with SugarHouse Casino.
 
     Burgin (left), 22, is 6-0, 1 K0, but has not boxed here since Dec. 8, 2012, when he earned a four-round decision over neighbor Kenneth Brown at McGonigle Hall on the campus of Temple University.  Two months earlier, Burgin had turned pro with a first-round knockout over Milton Lopez, of Puerto Rico, at the National Guard Armory in Northeast Philadelphia.
 
     Since those first two fights, Burgin has won four times in Atlantic City.  In his last fight there April 12, he got off the canvas in the third round to pound out a unanimous six-round decision over another Philadelphia, Frank Trader.
 
     Ellis, 31, is only 4-10-2, 2 K0s, but has pulled off a pair of shocking upsets:  a six-round decision over Tim Witherspoon, Jr., of Philadelphia; a first-round knockout over Samuel Quinones, of Reading, PA, and a pair of draws with Tyrone Luckey, of Middletown, NJ, and Frank Santos De Alba, of Reading.
 
     Another six-round features 17-year-old Milton Santiago (right), of Philadelphia, against Steamin’ Josh Beeman, of Providence, RI.
 
     Santiago is 4-0, 3 K0s, since turning pro earlier this year.
 
     Beeman may be 5-16-3, 2 K0s, but last year he upset unbeaten prospect Carlos Candelario, of Lawrence, MA.
 
     Four four-round bouts complete the card:  Nathaniel Rivas, Lindenwold, NJ, vs. Jovan Sosa, Bronx, NY, junior welterweights; David Gonzales, Philadelphia, vs. Omar Brito, Pleasantville, NJ, junior welterweights; Andrew Peurifoy, Sicklerville, NJ, vs. Hector Perez, Atlantic City, NJ, cruiserweights; Vincent Floyd, Philadelphia, vs. Sharif Jones, Philadelphia, middleweights.

Philadelphia Talent

BAM on Boxing


     Last Saturday, New Mexico’s Austin Trout defended his WBA junior middleweight title against Puerto Rico’s Miguel Cotto and became the first boxer to beat Cotto in his adopted home of Madison Square Garden.
     Trout, a slick southpaw, was the bigger fighter and he kept his composure, scoring an impressive 12-round decision.  For boxing fans, New York was the place to be last Saturday.  There were two press conferences featuring two big announcements by Philadelphia fighters.
     First:  Gabriel Rosado will challenge for the WBA middleweight title against Gennady Golovkin, of Kazakhstan, on Jan. 19 at Madison Square Garden.
     Second:  Danny Garcia will defend his WBA/WBC junior welterweight titles against  Zab Judah, of Brooklyn, NY, on Feb. 9 at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn.  Looks like Philadelphia will be spending some time in New York early next year.
     Coming up this weekend, however, the Philadelphia fan base will be right where it belongs--in North Philadelphia.  The City of Brotherly Love’s Bryant Jennings will defend his unbeaten record and his USBA Heavyweight Title against big-punching Bowie Tupou, of Tonga, in the 12-round main event Saturday evening at Temple University’s McGonigle Hall, Broad & Montgomery. Junior lightweight Eric Hunter also fights in his hometown against undefeated Mexican Jerry Belmontes in the 10-round semifinal.   
     NBC Sports Network will televise those two fights and there will be seven preliminary matches which begin at 7.15 pm.
     Saturday’s undercard is loaded with raw Philadelphia talent.  Three of the nine bouts feature Philly vs. Philly, neighborhood vs. neighborhood.
     The al-local light-heavyweight bout between Todd Unthank-May and Taneal Goyco is a rematch of their Sept. 14 contest won by Unthank-May via decision.  It seems like most fighters starting out cut their teeth best when fighting other local fighters.
     Featherweight Anthony Burgin, who recently signed with Peltz Boxing Promotions, Inc., makes his second appearance Saturday in an all-North Philadelphia matchup with Kenneth Brown, who makes his pro debut.  Burgin looks special.  He was very impressive in his pro debut two months ago at the National Guard Armory.
     I am looking forward to seeing North Philadelphia junior welterweight Hasan Young fight for the first time in his hometown.  Young is 1-1-1 and has the heart of an old-school Philadelphia fighter.  He already has faced one strong prospect in Emanuel Colon, a fight that Young took without hesitation and lost in an all-out brawl.  Young also boxed a draw with Jerome Rodriguez on 24 hours’ notice in Rodriguez’ hometown of Bethlehem, PA.   With time to train for Saturday’s fight, Young takes on Josue Rivera, of South Philadelphia.
     Jesse Hard Work Hart also makes his hometown debut.  Hart, son of legendary middleweight Eugene Cyclone Hart, was an outstanding amateur and he is 4-0, 4 K0s, as a super middleweight. He fights Steven Tyner, of Albany, NY.  Alex Barbosa, who has two graduate degrees from Temple, returns to campus against Joshua Arocho, of Vineland, NJ, in a featherweight contest.  Barbosa wants to show his fan base that he is an attribute to the Temple Made campaign.
     Two, all-Hispanic, six-round lightweight fights should steal the show.  Angel Ocasio, of North Philadelphia, takes on Esteban Rodriguez, of Lebanon, PA, andJason Sosa, of Camden, NJ, meets Isaac Suarez, of Lancaster, PA.  These are two intense fights.  The combined record of these four prospects is 25-5-6.
     This looks like the best show of the year in Philadelphia.

Bam On Boxing History Restart

BAM on Boxing

     History Restart

     It has been a while, but I’m back.  I have not been writing recently because I have been busy with other things and because the state of the Philadelphia sports scene has me in a slump.
     Around this time of the year I usually am excited about the Philadelphia Flyers, but with the NHL lockout that is not an option.  I began to focus on the Eagles, but they should not even be mentioned the way they are playing.  The Sixers?  Does Andrew Bynum ring a bell?  I don’t think the local sports scene has been this bad in decades.
     I always end up refocusing on the sport I love most, boxing.  Philadelphians should not take it for granted because my sport is the only thing keeping them on the map.
     Boxing comes home to Philadelphia on Saturday evening, Dec. 8, on the NBC Sports Network.  Every time people talk about boxing in Philly they associate the sport with the Legendary Blue Horizon, which is great except the Blue Horizon has been closed for more than two years.   Not to worry since we are bringing the sport back just a few blocks north of the Blue Horizon when undefeated Bryant Jennings defends his USBA heavyweight title in a 12-rounder against Bowie Tupou, of Tonga, in the 12-round main at Pearson/McGonigle Halls at Temple University.
     Jennings, who could walk to Temple from his gym, has a unique story.  He played football and basketball at Ben Franklin High School and he did not even start boxing until his mid-20s.  He is a full-time father to his pride and joy, his 4-year-old son, Mason, and he still works his full-time job as a mechanic at the Federal Reserve Bank building at 7th & Arch.
     Jennings is ranked No. 5 in the world by one organization (IBF) after 17 amateur fights and 15 pro fights.  He is an inspiration to everyone who knows his story, how his parents abandoned him when he was in high school, how he lived alone and raised himself with help from his grandmother, how he maintained after-school jobs while playing sports at Ben Franklin and how he would love to be an architect one day and build buildings.
     Jennings also has a physique which reminds you of heavyweights of the past, always in shape and ready to go.  For the record, Jennings is 15-0, 7 K0s; Tupou is 22-2, 16 K0s.
     The Dec. 8 card is full of exciting fighters.  In the junior lightweight co-feature, many people were expecting Teon Kennedy to battle undefeated Mexican fighter Jerry Belmontes.  When Kennedy injured his knee, another Philadelphia fighter, Eric Hunter, stepped in without hesitation.  Hunter was an outstanding amateur with a record of 187-4 and he was a USA Olympic alternate in 2004.
     Before the injury people were hoping Kennedy still had what it takes, but those same fans are expecting Hunter to walk away with the win. 
     Hunter (right) who has not fought above 126 pounds since 2007, decided to accept the fight at 128 pounds just to get the opportunity to shine, not only in his hometown but also on NBC Sports Network.  Belmontes has fought as heavy as 134 pounds and, at 5-foot-9, has a three-inch height advantage over Hunter but only a one-inch advantage in reach.
     Hunter is 16-2, 9 K0s, while Belmontes is 17-0, 5 K0s.
     My mentor, J Russell Peltz, has been known to say that “fighters back in the 70’s and 80’s didn’t have to get in shape, they stayed in shape.”  Jennings and Hunter are two of the few around who stay in shape and just need to switch their training into fight mode.  These two have the heart and dedication of Philadelphia fighters of days gone by.  It should be an intense night.
     This fight card is huge for Philadelphia boxing; it is putting boxing back where it belongs, in North Philadelphia right on Broad Street.  It feels like history is ready to restart itself.

Bam Boxing: Flashback and Preview


     The Philadelphia fight scene is heating up.  I would like to congratulate Philadelphia welterweight Ray Robinson on his second- round knockout over Terrance Cauthen, of Trenton, NJ, on May 12 at the Newtown (PA) Athletic Club.  One week later at Bally’s Atlantic City,  junior middleweight Jamaal Davis earned a majority eight-round decision over pressure fighter Eberto Medina, of Newark, NJ, in a thriller.
     In the midst of these local match-ups, previously undefeated junior welterweight Ray Serrano had the biggest test of his career on ESPN’s Friday Night Fights and camp up short in Albany, NY, where he was stopped in the fifth round by Karim Mayfield, of San Francisco, CA.  I don’t know which was more disturbing:  Serrano’s corner for being mixed up and yelling at each other, or for not giving the fighter the stool and a water bath during the one-minute rest after a face-first knockdown as the bell rang to end round four.  Serrano barely beat the 10-count and was in no condition to continue.  Nobody can doubt Serrano’s heart but I hope he takes a nice rest before he bounces back.
    June looks to be one of the most exciting months local fight fans could ask for with two NBC Sports Network Fight Night shows--June 1 and June 16--featuring four Philadelphia fighters, and having two more locals televised on the Manny Pacquiao vs. Timothy Bradley pay-per-view card June 9 from the MGM in Las Vegas, NV.
     Beginning June 1 at the Sands Casino Resort Bethlehem (PA), welterweight and hometown hero Ronald Cruz faces Prenice Brewer, of Cleveland, OH, in one co-feature, while junior middleweights King Gabriel Rosado of Philadelphia, and Sechew Powell, of  Brooklyn, NY, square off in the other.
     I don’t know much about Brewer other than he is a quick-handed boxer with fair power.  Cruz figures to be the stronger of the two.  Brewer is best-known for his upset win last fall over Emmanuel Taylor, of Edgewood Arsenal, MD.  Rosado, on the other hand, is facing a fighter who has been in with some of the best.  Rosado needs to prove that his Jan. 21 stoppage of Mexico’s Jesus Soto-Karass was not a fluke.
     Eight days later in Las Vegas, on one of the biggest PPV cards this year, welterweight Mike Jones will be fighting for the IBF World Title against Randall Bailey, of Miami, FL.  Also on the televised portion of the PPV card will be another Philadelphian, super bantamweight Teon Kennedy, who will challenge Cuban Guillermo Rigondeaux for the WBA World Title at 122 pounds.  It would be nice for them to come home with two championship belts.
     Jones, not known for the most exciting fights, has a lot to prove against Bailey.  This is the biggest test of his career and the fans will be looking for more excitement then he generated against Sebastian Lujan, of Argentina, on the Miguel Cotto-Antonio Margarito card last Dec. 3 at Madison Square Garden.
    Kennedy, on the other hand, is one of the most entertaining fighters out there.  He will be facing the toughest test of his career.
     Good luck, guys!
     Two weeks later, the NBC Sports Network Fight Night series moves to the Prudential Center in Newark, NJ.  The 12-round main event features Philadelphia heavyweight Eddie Chambers against Polish star Tomasz Adamek, who now resides in Jersey City, NJ.  The co-feature showcases another Philadelphia heavyweight in Bryant Jennings, who hopes to win the vacant USBA title when he takes on Steve Collins, of Houston, TX.
     Chambers will end a 16-month layoff and hopes to piece back together his fading reputation after multiple injury based pullouts in the last year.  He will be the underdog in the house that night, fighting in a venue that Adamek considers his second home.  I will be looking for Chambers to score the upset.
     Jennings, who is an NBC Sports Network favorite, will continue his on-the-job education against Collins in the 10-round co-feature.
     Not sure which of the up-coming fight cards will be the most entertaining, but one thing is for sure:  The five Peltz Boxing Promotions fighters in action (Cruz, Rosado, Jones, Kennedy, Jennings) have their work cut out for them.

PROFESSIONAL BOXING IN NEWTOWN, PA: CAUTHEN vs. ROBINSON ON SATURDAY FOR PA WELTERWEIGHT TITLE


     There is a first time for everything!     The youngest female boxing promoter in the nation, Bucks County native Brittany Rogers (left) will promote her second boxing event this weekend.
     It features a 10-round contest for the vacant Pennsylvania Welterweight Title between TerranceThe Heat Cauthen and The New Ray Robinson on Saturday, May 12, at the Newtown Athletic Club (NAC), 120 Pheasant Run, Newtown, PA 18940.    First of six bouts begins at 7:30 pm.
     This card brings pro boxing back to a town that doesn’t often host fights, but and the Philadelphia fighters are ready to put on a show!  The undercard is loaded with exciting athletes.  Best of the bunch could be the six-rounder between lightweights Kareem Cooley (2-1,1K0) and Tevin Farmer (4-3-1, 1K0). 
     It matches Cooley’s skill against Farmer’s hustle.  Cooley, the taller of the two, is taking a big step up against Farmer.  Farmer’s most impressive win over Tim Witherspoon, Jr., was a result of Farmer’s heart and hustle.  Farmer does not rest for a second once he is inside the ropes and Cooley won’t let him regardless.
     Also on the undercard is a six-round bout between DeCarlo Perez (6-2-1, 2K0s), of Atlantic City, NJ, in with Lenwood Dozier (7-4-1, 3K0s), of Glen Burnie, MD.   Dozier is coming off a tough loss to Jose Peralta Alejo, of Jersey City, NJ; Perez is coming off a loss to Rafael Montalvo, of St. Clair, PA.  It’s a must-win situation for each man.
     Hasan Young, of Philadelphia, makes his pro debut against Cassius Clay, (0-2), in a junior welterweight fight.  Clay, a New Jersey native, lives in Las Vegas, NV, and is traveling back to make his East Coast debut.  Young is a natural; he makes counter-punching look easy.
     Philadelphia cruiserweights Amir Shabazz (1-0) and Ken Rosser (0-2) go at it in a four-rounder.  This marks Shabazz’ first fight after a 16-month lay-off due to injury. Rosser is your typical Philadelphia fighter; he took this fight on short notice.  Rosser has heart, something you can’t teach.  Oscar Pagan, of Camden, NJ, and Ben Lovett, of Philadelphia, will make their debuts in a junior middleweight bout.
     The Cauthen-Robinson main events marks his second fight close to his Trenton, NJ, backyard.  He once trained members of the NAC.  This also will mark Robinson’s first bout at the NAC and his first time fighting for a title! 
 

ABOUT MAY 12
     The Robinson-Cauthen fight tops a six-bout card at the Newtown Athletic Club (NAC).  First fight is 7.30 pm.  Tickets priced at $50, $75 and $100 are on sale at the offices of Peltz Boxing (215-765-0922), www.peltzboxing.com and at the Newtown Athletic Club.  The card is being promoted by Bam Boxing Promotions, Inc., in association with the NAC.

PHILLY WARS IN NEWTOWN

     Newtown, PA—Philadelphia is known for having the best inter-city rivalries and the tradition continues in Newtown.
    The New Ray Robinson, of Philadelphia, squares off with Terrance Cauthen, of Trenton, NJ, in an eight-round welterweight contest on Saturday evening, May 12, at the Newtown Athletic Club (NAC), 120 Pheasant Run, Newtown, PA.
     The seven-fight card is stacked with Philadelphia fighters who either come from fighting families or who are building their own legacies.
     An all-Philadelphia lightweight bout between Tevin Farmer, of the Martin Luther King Rec Center, and Kareem Cooley, of the Joe Hand Gym, has fans buzzing.  Farmer reminds you of a typical blue-collar fighter, a guy with a record of 4-3-1, 1 K0.  His most impressive win came Jan. 13 at the National Guard Armory when he earned a six-round decision over another Philadelphian, Tim Witherspoon, Jr., who was 6-1-1 at the time.  The left-handed Farmer then put up a great effort against undefeated Kamil Laszczyk on March 24 in Atlantic City.  Laszczyk, who was 7-0, 5 K0s, at the time, scored a hard-fought six-round decision.  Farmer has the right attitude—he is willing to step in the ring with anyone and put it all on the line.
     Cooley is just 2-1, 1 K0, and has not fought since his four-round decision win over Eliud Torres, of Allentown, PA, on Oct. 8, 2010.  Most current fighters would ask for a tune-up fight.  Not Cooley!  He is not looking for an easy fight, just a fair one.  Cooley is the more tactical fighter of the two and, since styles make fights, this should be a good one.  The MLK Rec Center is located in North Philadelphia and the Joe Hand Gym is located in Northern Liberties, so it’s time for a neighborhood showdown.     
     Also fighting on May 12 is junior middleweight Jimmy Lowry Jr., (right), son of the late Jimmy Lowry Sr.  Lowry, Jr., of North Philadelphia, trains in the same gym where current WBC Junior Welterweight champion Danny Garcia got his start--the Harrowgate Boxing Gym.
     Garcia: “R.I.P. Jim Lowry.  He was a great man and trainer.  He schooled me to game since I was 10.  He made me believe in myself when I didn’t as a kid.”  Garcia was just one of many fighters Senior influenced.  It is Junior’s time to shine and give back to his family the legacy that his father started.    
     Every neighborhood in Philadelphia is getting involved.  Light-heavyweights Amir Shabazz, of the James Shuler Memorial Gym in West Philadelphia, and Maurice Amaro, of the Marian Anderson Rec Center in South Philadelphia, meet in a four-rounder.  Shabazz is 1-0 and coming off a 16-month layoff due to injury.  Amaro is 1-5 and has made a career out of facing undefeated fighters.  Shabazz represents Amaro’s fourth undefeated opponent.
     Outstanding amateur Hasan Young makes his pro debut on the undercard in a junior welterweight match.  Young recently fought in the PA Golden Gloves, but a loss to Damon Allen eliminated him from the tournament.  He should do well as a professional.

ABOUT MAY 12
     The Robinson-Cauthen fight tops an eight-bout card at theNewtown Athletic Club (NAC).  First fight is 7.30 pm.  Tickets priced at $50, $75, and $100 are on sale at the offices of Peltz Boxing (215-765-0922), www.peltzboxing.com and at the Newtown Athletic Club.  The card is being promoted by Bam Boxing Promotions, Inc., in association with the NAC.
