BROADWAY BOXING BACK AT BB KING BLUES CLUB WEDNESDAY MAY 15‏

On Wednesday, May 15th, DiBella Entertainment returns to BB King Blues Club in NYC for the latest edition of its Broadway Boxing series with an exciting nine-bout card featuring a number of DBE's top up-and-coming prospects.

Highlighting the card will be fast-rising, undefeated middleweight, Lamar Russ(12-0, 7KO's), fellow undefeated middleweight prospect Delen Parsley (10-0, 3KO's) and heavyweigh t contender Tor Hamer (19-2, 12KO's).  All three bouts are scheduled for eight rounds.

Russ joined the DBE roster late in 2012 and has yet to disappoint.  He holds stoppage victories over previously undefeated prospects Jonathan Cepeda 12-0, 11KO's (TKO-1) and Jose Alonzo 13-0, 7KO's (TKO-4) and is coming off an eight-round unanimous decision over Jose Medina (17-12-1, 7KO's) in his most recent outing which took place on January 23, at BB King Blues Club. 

The Brooklyn-native Parsley is coming off a sensational 2^nd round TKO over Tyrone Selders in his most recent outing, which like Russ also took place on January 23.  Parsley dropped Selders with a picture perfect right hand right as the bell sounded to end round one. Parsley was all over Selders in the 2^nd, giving him an absolute beating and causing Selders to quit on his stool. The bout on the 15^thwill be Parsley's 5^th appearance at BB King Blues Club since turning pro in 2009.

Looking to bounce back from his disappointing loss to undefeated heavyweight contender Vyacheslav Glazkov and regain the momentum he had from winning the Prizefighter Tournament in 2012 will be the New York City native Hamer.  Hamer fought Glazkov back in December of last year in a bout that was aired live on NBC.  Hamer got off to a good start in the fight, but was unable to continue after the fourth round, citing a chest and head cold that he had been battling just a week before the fight that was compromising his breathing. Hamer hopes to bounce back with an impressive victory and put himself back into contender status.

Additional bouts, including opponents for Russ, Parsley and Hamer will be announced shortly.

 The card is promoted by DiBella Entertainment (DBE) and sponsored by Manfredi Auto Group, Newlio.com, and Everlast.  The event will be broadcast on SNY tape-delayed.  Doors open at 6:30 p.m. ET with the first bout scheduled for 7 p.m. ET.

‘The New Generation Boxing Series’ Launches Saturday Night Fights Return June 18 in Hartford

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.
