ISRAELI SOLDIERS RAN NAKASH AND ELAD SHMOUEL FIGHTING INSIDE THE RING WHILE COUNTRY IS AT WAR

PHILADELPHIA )—On Friday night, February 6th, Ran Nakash will headline a big night of boxing at The Legendary Blue Horizon.

Fighting so far way from home usually isn’t a big deal for Nakash—or fellow Israeli soldier Elad Shmouel who will also make the trip—as this will be his eighth fight at The Legendary Blue Horizon and Shmouel’s seventh, however the circumstances around this fight are a little different for both

Nakash and Shmouel are in the Israel Defense Force. Nakash serves as Chief Commander of the IDF’s krav maga instructional division is the highest ranking professional authority in Krav Maga, while Shmouel is a First Sergeant in the Army.

In layman’s terms, Nakash is the chief instructor of hand-to-hand combat for the entire Israeli Army.

As most people know, Israel is at war with Hamas in Gaza and both men have been part of the war effort, and also served in the 2006 war against Hezbollah in Lebanon. With unrest in their homeland weighing heavily on their minds, Nakash and Shmouel will still make the trek to Philadelphia and apply their boxing trade in front of a packed crowd at The Legendary Blue Horizon on February 6th.

Nakash (16-0, 12 KO’s) of Haifa , Israel will battle Ryan Carroll (7-1, 4 KO’s) of Delaware , Ohio in the eight round cruiserweight main event.

Shmouel (18-2, 12 KO’s) will battle Khristian Garaci (4-5-1, 2 KO’s) of Pittsburgh in a Jr. Welterweight bout scheduled for six rounds.

These fights have extra meaning as Nakash & Shmouel have pride and country as extra motivation to put an a great performance on February 6th.

In the co-feature, Steve Upsher Chambers (19-1-1, 5 KO’s) battles an opponent to be announced in an eight round Jr. Welterweight bout.

In a six round Light Heavyweight affair, Andre Hemphill (7-9-2, 4 KO’s) takes on an opponent to be announced.

Darren Fallen (12-4-1, six knockouts) battles New Yorker, Jason Thompson (4-3, 3 KO’s) in a six round Jr. Middleweight bout.

Julius Edmonds (3-3) of Philadelphia takes on Linwood Hurd (2-0-3) of Atlantic City in a four round Jr. Welterweight bout.

Derrick Bivins (1-0) takes on debuting Gabriel Gomez in a four round battle of Philadelphia bred Featherweights.

John Turner (1-0, 1 KO) takes on Marcus Bianconi (1-0, 1 KO) of Houston, Texas in a clash of undefeated Middleweights scheduled for four rounds.

Fresh off his twenty-three second knockout, Johnny Pawlowski (2-1-1, 2KO’s) gets it on with Tyrone Miles of Philadelphia, who will be making his pro debut.

These fights will be streamed live all over the world on www.gofightlive.tv

NAKASH; CHAMBERS AND THE RETURN OF ELAD SHMOUEL HIGHLIGHT THE FIRST BIG NIGHT OF BOXING IN 2009 AT THE LEGENDARY BLUE HORIZON FRIDAY NIGHT FEBRUARY 6

PHILADELPHIA- Fast becoming one of the most popular fighters in Philadelphia, Ran Nakash of Haifa, Israel will once again look to thrill the crowd at The Legendary Blue Horizon as he will participate in the scheduled eight round main event of big night of boxing at boxing’s number-one venue on Friday night February 6th.

The “Valentines Day Special” card is promoted by Vernoca L. Michael and Blue Horizon Boxing Inc.

Nakash, 16-0 with twelve knockouts put on his most complete performance in his last bout when he systematically broke down Harvey Jolly over seven rounds on December 5th. It was during that fight that Nakash heard loud cheers from The Blue Horizon crowd and is now solidified as one of the most popular fighters in Philadelphia.

Nakash has a record of 7-0 with four knockouts at The Legendary Blue horizon and has scored seven consecutive stoppages. With a win Nakash could be on the cusp of a world ranking. Nakash’s very formidable opponent will be announced shortly.

In the co-feature, Jr. Welterweight Steve Upsher Chambers will look to extend his unbeaten streak to seventeen as he will take part in a bout scheduled for eight rounds.

Eddie Chambers (l)and Steve Upsher Chambers (r)

Chambers is coming off a solid victory over Ben Ankrah on December 5th at The Legendary Blue Horizon.

In that bout, Chambers showed that despite his long length, he could mix it up inside as he consistently outworked Ankrah at close-quarters to pound out the unanimous decision victory.

Chambers, 19-1-1 (1NC) with five knockouts has become a staple at The Legendary Blue Horizon has fought all but one of his fights at The Legendary Blue Horizon.

Chambers will be taking on an opponent to be announced shortly.

It has been fourteen months since Elad Shmouel took part on one of the greatest toe-to-toe wars ever inside the confines of Philadelphia and on February 6th; Shmouel will make his long awaited return to the ring

Back on December 7th, 2007, Shmouel and Lenny DeVictoria put on one of the greatest shows in the history of Philadelphia boxing as Shmouel battered and dropped DeVictoria over the first four rounds. It was then where DeVictoria found something deep inside of him and the tide turned as DeVictoria shockingly came back to stop Shmouel in round seven of what Philadelphia fight fans are still calling a classic.

Shmouel, 18-2-1 of Tel Aviv, Israel with nine knockouts has been thinking about that fight for over a year and there have been rumors of a rematch taking place in 2009. In order for that to occur Shmouel must be victorious on February 6th against an opponent to be announced in a six round Jr. Welterweight bout. Shmouel will be making his seventh appearance at The Legendary Blue Horizon (5-1, 2 KO’s)

In another six round bout, Jr. Middleweight Darren Fallen, 12-4-1 with six stoppages will look to build on a two-fight winning streak when he sees action on February 6.

In a Featherweight bout set for four rounds, Jules Blackwell, 8-2-2 with three knockouts will look to rebound from a devastating knockouts loss that he suffered on December 5th at the hands of Darrell Martin will battle the highly popular Nicky DeMarco (2-2, 2 KO’s) of Staten Island, New York.

After a four year hiatus and relocating back home to Philadelphia, Jr. Welterweight John Pawlowski, 2-1-1, 2 KO’s needed just twenty-three seconds to dispose of John Goldwire on December 5th and on February 6th Pawlowski will look for his third straight first round knockout when he battles Danny Morales (0-2) in a bout scheduled for four rounds.

Also seeing action on February 6th in separate bouts scheduled for four rounds will be Jr. welterweight Julius Edmonds (3-3); super featherweight Derek Bivins (1-0) & middleweight John Turner (1-0, 1KO)

These fights will be streamed live all over the world on www.gofightlive.tv

Ticket prices for this great night of boxing are $200 for Queen Seating, $125 for Presidential seats, $65 for VIP, $55 for Ringside, and $45 for General Admission and can be purchased by calling The Legendary Blue Horizon at 1-215-763-0500 or by logging on to comcasttix.com.

BLACKWELL TO FACE SAMUEL ON FRIDAY JUNE 6TH AT THE LEGENDARY BLUE HORIZON; Step-up fight for undefeated Featherweight highlights a big night of boxing

Philadelphia, PA- On Friday night, June 6th, undefeated Featherweight, Jules Blackwell will be in with his toughest test as he takes on Tyrell Samuel in an eight round bout that will headline a big night of boxing promoted by Vernoca L. Michael and Blue Horizon Boxing Promotions Inc.

Blackwell of Phoenixville, Pa is itching to get back in the win column after two consecutive draws with the most recent being against Jae-Sung Lee on March 15th at Madison Square Garden. That bout was an exciting back and forth tussle which many ringsiders thought the decision could have gone either way.

Jules Blackwell


The twenty-seven year old Blackwell brings in a record of 7-0-2 with two knockouts and is 7-0 at The Legendary Blue Horizon. In his last Blue Horizon appearance, Blackwell was very impressive in taking a unanimous decision from then undefeated Paul Fernandez last December 7th.

Like Blackwell, Samuel was unblemished until his last two fight.

Samuel of Baltimore had amassed a record of 9-0 until being stopped by Jose Hernandez in four rounds last April 7. Samuel then received a coveted spot on the highly popular SHO BOX series as he took on top prospect Eric Hunter.

Samuel fought well but came up just short and dropped the unanimous decision to the Philadelphia native.

Samuel, twenty-eight years old is 9-2 with five knockouts and holds a win over Tim Witherspoon Jr. and two wins over Carlos Vinan (who defeated Hunter). This will be Samuel’s first appearance at The Legendary Blue Horizon.

One of the co-feature bouts will be an eight round middleweight affair between Blue Horizon fan favorite, Gee Cullmer and Anthony Little.

Cullmer of Philadelphia has a record of 14-1 with three knockouts and has fought his last nine bouts at The Legendary Blue Horizon which includes his last outing where he scored a six round unanimous decision over Mustafah Johnson.

Little of Akron, Ohio has a record of 7-10-1 with one knockout has fought solid opposition such Andre Berto, Pawel Wolak and James McGirt Jr. He is coming off a draw with George Klinesmith (23-13-3) on February 16th.

Steve Upsher Chambers makes his return to The Legendary Blue Horizon when he takes on the straight forward style of Jaime Morales in a six round Jr. Welterweight affair.

Eddie Chambers and Steve Upsher Chambers


He has a record of 16-1-1 (1 NC, 4 KO’s) and has fought every one of his fights at The Legendary Blue Horizon except for one fight.

In his last bout, Chambers scored an easy unanimous decision over late-replacement, Jean Petit Homme on April 11th at The Legendary Blue Horizon.

Morales of Philadelphia is a come forward fighter who always is involved in action packed affairs. He has a record of 4-7 with two knockouts and is looking to get back in the win column after being stopped by undefeated Daniel Hartvig in Gothenburg, Sweden on March 27th.

An exciting undercard is being put together that will feature four undefeated fighters in separate bouts:

Fresh off his exciting pro debut on April 11th at The Legendary Blue Horizon, middleweight, Mario Mina (1-0, 1KO) will be back in action in a four round bout.

Undefeated cruiserweight, Ran Nakash (12-0. 8 KO’s) will make the trek from Israel to make his fifth appearance at The Legendary Blue Horizon.

New York based middleweight, Defferson LeGrand (3-0, 2 KO’s) and Super Featherweight Gerald Smith (2-0, 1 KO) of Philadelphia will appear in four round bouts.

Smith will be making his third straight appearance at The Blue Horizon with his most recent outing being a 2nd round stoppage over Jose Guerrido on April 11th.

Rounding out the card will be returning Jr. Middleweight, Orlando Lewis (4-1, 4 KO’s) of Vineland, New Jersey. Lewis will be back in the ring after a twenty-two month lay off. He started his career with three straight knockouts at The Blue Horizon.

Ticket prices for this great night of boxing are $200 for Queen Seating, $125 for Presidential seats, $65 for VIP, $55 for Ringside, and $45 for General Admission and can be purchased by calling The Legendary Blue Horizon at 1-215-763-0500 or by logging on to comcasttix.com.
