    Grudge Match: Jesse Hart-Joe Smith Jr. to Clash in Light Heavyweight Showdown at Hard Rock Atlantic City January 11 Live on ESPN ATLANTIC CITY, N.J. (Nov. 19, 2019) — This one is personal. Jesse “Hollywood” Hart, born and bred in Philadelphia, will take on Joe Smith Jr. Saturday, Jan. 11 from Hard Rock Live at Etess Arena in the 10-round main event, which will kick off the 2020 Top Rank on ESPN schedule. It was Smith, the union construction worker from Long Island, who knocked Philadelphia legend Bernard Hopkins through the ropes and into retirement in December 2016. For Hart, who considers Hopkins a mentor, this fight is more than a step towards a world title shot. ESPN and ESPN Deportes will televise Hart-Smith Jr. and a co- feature beginning at 10 p.m. ET/7 p.m. PT, with undercard action slated for ESPN+ beginning at 7 p.m. ET/4 p.m. PT.

This is a sensational main event to kick off the Top Rank schedule in 2020.” “This is personal.

  • Jesse Hart's March 18 Homecoming Recalls a Time
    JESSE HART’S MARCH 18 HOMECOMING RECALLS A TIME WHEN LOCAL STARS BOXED IN THEIR BACKYARDS Philadelphia, PA—How did super middleweight Jesse Hart go from fighting Feb. 27 at the Theatre in Madison Square Garden on an HBO championship card to a March 18 non-televised show from the 2300 Arena in South Philadelphia? The answer says a lot about the direction boxing has traveled in recent memory. “I don’t want to fight on someone else’s undercard,” Hart said recently, removing himself from his off-TV fight underneath Terrance Crawford’s WBO junior welterweight title defense against Hank Lundy, another Philadelphian, in New York City. “I wanted to be the main event in Philadelphia where my dad (Eugene “Cyclone” Hart) was a star years ago,” Hart added. “I called up my promoter, Bob Arum, and explained this to him and he gave me the green light.” Hart’s NABA and USBA championship belts will be at stake against Dashon Johnson, of Escondido, CA, who is riding a four-bout winning streak. “I applaud Jesse for his foresight,” said J Russell Peltz, whose company will stage the March 18 card along with Top Rank, BAM Boxing and Joe Hand Promotions. “I don’t understand why more fighters don’t think like Jesse.” Hart, who has scored 16 knockouts on his 19-0 record, is pounding the pavement for the March 18 card, acting as part of the promotional team. “It’s not even about the money,” Hart said, “because I’m taking a pay cut to fight in Philly.

  • Verdejo Makes Philly Debut Against Spain's Ouazghari
    VERDEJO MAKES PHILLY DEBUT AGAINST SPAIN’S OUAZGHARI DEC. 13 AT 2300 ARENA Philadelphia, PA—Sensational lightweight Felix Verdejo, the latest in a long line of outstanding Puerto Rican boxers, makes his Philadelphia debut Saturday evening, Dec. 13, when he takes on Karim El Ouazghari, of Barcelona, Spain, in the scheduled eight-round main event at the 2300 Arena. The Verdejo-Ouazghari fight, along with an eight-round super middleweight contest featuring Jesse Hart, of Philadelphia, will be televised as part of Top Rank’s Solo Boxeo Tecate series on UniMas. The delayed telecast will begin at 11pm (EST). First of seven prelims begins at 6.45pm. The 21-year-old Verdejo (left), an outstanding amateur, represented Puerto Rico in the 2012 Olympics. He lost a 14-9 decision in the quarter-finals to eventual Gold Medalist Vasyl Lomachenko, of the Ukraine, who currently is the WBO featherweight champion. Verdejo’s overall amateur record was 106-17. Verdejo turned pro late in 2012 and is 15-0, 11 K0s. He boxed eight times in 2013 and this will be his seventh fight in 2014. In his last outing Oct. 4, Verdejo scored a spectacular one- punch third-round knockout over 32-fight veteran Sergio Villanueva, of Mexico, in front of a standing-room-only crowd at the Bahia Shrine Temple in Orlando, FL. Verdejo turned pro in Las Vegas and he has boxed in Puerto Rico, New York, Florida and China. This will be his first fight in Philadelphia, but his second in Pennsylvania. He won a six-round decision over Guillermo Delgadillo, of Walla Walla, WA, on Aug.
