ALEX SANCHEZ TRAINER CONVINCED HIS FIGHTER CAN BEAT Lamanna DEC ALEX SANCHEZ TRAINER CONVINCED HIS FIGHTER CAN BEAT LaMANNA DEC. 13 AT 2300 ARENA IN PHILLY Philadelphia, PA—Junior middleweight Alex Sanchez gets the fight he has been asking for when he takes on unbeaten Thomas “Cornflake” LaManna in an all-New Jersey battle on Saturday evening, Dec. 13, at the 2300 Arena in South Philadelphia. Topping the card are a pair of eight-round fights featuring lightweight Felix Verdejo, of San Juan, Puerto Rico, vs. Karim El Ouazghari, of Barcelona, Spain, and super middleweight Jesse Hart, of Philadelphia, vs. Samuel Miller, of Arboletes, Colombia. Those two matches will be televised as part of Top Rank’s Solo Boxeo Tecate series on UniMas. The delayed telecast will begin at midnight (EST). First of seven prelims begins at 6.45pm. Sanchez, 31, of Camden, NJ, is only 4-5-1 as a pro with two knockouts, but he claims the road he has traveled has been much harder than the one taken by LaManna, whose 15-0 record includes seven K0s. “Records don’t mean a thing,” said Martin Diaz, who manages and trains Sanchez. “We’re always the opponent; we never get to pick and choose the kind of guys that LaManna fights. We wanted eight rounds for this fight and 158 pounds but we were forced to settle for six rounds and 160 pounds. “We also got a lot of bad decisions. Alex beat Fred Jenkins, Jr., nasty for six rounds in March and they gave Jenkins the decision. Why? Favoritism, I guess. Why doesn’t LaManna fight Jenkins? He just gets the right fights to build his record. We never had that luck. Look at the poster for this fight. They have LaManna’s picture on it and they don’t even put Alex’ name on the poster. “LaManna only fought one solid guy and that was Jamaal Davis in his last fight (Aug. 23) and Davis didn’t really come to fight that night. If he had, he would have won.” In his last fight Aug. 23 at Bally’s, Sanchez got off the floor in the first round and fought unbeaten Ismael Garcia, of Atlantic City, NJ, to a standstill the rest of the way before losing a six-round decision. The combined record of Sanchez’ 10 opponents was 42-22-1. Five of the 10 were unbeaten at fight time. Among then is world- rated Tony Harrison, of Detroit, currently 18-0. The combined record of LaManna’s 15 victims is 74-65-3 and he comes into this fight off the two biggest wins of his career, a pair of eight-round decisions over Ahsandi Gibbs and Davis. The Dec. 13 fight will be LaManna’s first in Philadelphia. Sanchez has boxed there once previously, a four-round decision earlier this year over Juan Aguirre, of Jacksonville, FL. ABOUT DECEMBER 13 The Verdejo-Ouazghari and Hart-Miller fights top an eight-bout card at the 2300 Arena. First fight is 6.45 pm. Tickets priced at $50 and $75 are on sale at the offices of Peltz Boxing (215-765-0922) and at Wanamaker’s Tickets (215-568-2400). They also can be purchased on line at www.peltzboxing.com and at www.wanatix.com. UniMas will televise the Verdejo-Ouazghari fight as part of Top Rank’s Solo Boxeo Tecate series. The delayed telecast begins at midnight (EST). The card is being promoted by Top Rank, Peltz Boxing Promotions, Inc., and BAM Boxing. The 2300 Arena, formerly known as the New Alhambra, has hosted consistent professional boxing from 2004 thru 2012 when it was later known as the Asylum Arena. Boxing cards there have been televised by ESPN 2, CN8, Univision and the NBC Sports Network.

    Moore-Medina headlines ‘Changing The Game’ in Boston BOSTON (August 13, 2013) — Undefeated Cleveland light middleweight Michael Moore (12-0 (6 KOs) will headline the “Changing The Game” professional boxing card, presented by Big Six Entertainment in association with Danny Kelly Promotions, on Saturday, September 7 (special 5 p.m. ET start) at The Royale Nightclub Boston (formerly The Roxy), located in the downtown theater district. “We are excited about coming right back to The Royale Boston,” Big Six Entertainment president Artie DePinho said. “The combination of New England fight fans and the venue created an electric atmosphere at our last event. We are putting together another night of can’t-miss entertainment and I encourage everybody to get tickets early.” The fast-rising Moore, who fights out of the same city that has produced contemporary world-title contenders such as Willie Nelson and Miguel Gonzales, will face face the toughest test of his young professional career, Jose “Stinger” Medina (18-13-1, 7 KOs), in an eight-round bout. Media is considered a gatekeeper whose record is deceiving because so many of his fights have been in his opponent’s backyard, many on short notice. Medina, fighting out nearby Quincy (MA), is coming of a win by six-round decision over Allen Conyers (12-8) in July. The 30- year-old Mexico-born fighter has upset 17-1 Issac Rodrigues (KO4) and he fought world champion Joachim Alcine to an eight- round draw in 2011, in which most observers felt Medina deserved the decision. Medina, who has only been stopped twice in 32 fights, has been the distance against world-class opponents such Fernando Guerrero, Bronco McKart and Matthew Hatton, as well as prospects Lamar Russ and Nick Brinson.

    BRONCO McKART INJURED DERRICK “SUPERMAN” FINDLEY TO FACE J’LEON LOVE ON SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 23 AT THE MASONIC TEMPLE THEATRE IN DETROIT LIVE ON SHOWTIME® DETROIT, February 13 – With former World Champion Bronco McKart sidelined by a rib injury recently sustained in training, Gary, Indiana’s Derrick “Superman” Findley will step in to battle Detroit’s own J’Leon Love at the Masonic Temple Theatre in Detroit on Saturday, February 23 in a 10-round middleweight bout which will be telecast live on SHOWTIME® at 9:00 p.m. ET/PT (delayed on the West Coast). In the main event on SHOWTIME, Detroit’s Cornelius “K9” Bundrage will defend his IBF Junior Middleweight World Championship against Las Vegas’ Ishe “Sugar Shay” Smith. This exciting evening of world championship boxing is presented by Golden Boy Promotions and Mayweather Promotions and is sponsored by Corona and MGM Grand Detroit. The SHOWTIME telecast begins at 9:00 p.m. ET/PT (delayed on the West Coast).

How will the 25-year-old former amateur star top that in 2013? Odds are that he will find a way with his ever-expanding skill set and exciting style, both of which will be on display on February 23 against Derrick Findley.
