Boxing and Basketball Rock Aviator Sports and Events Center Saturday Night! BOXING AND BASKETBALL ROCK AVIATOR SPORTS AND EVENTS CENTER SATURDAY NIGHT! 3/24 NBC Sports Network Fight Night Aviator Sports and Events Center, Brooklyn, NY Boxing returns to Brooklyn, NY, on Saturday, March 24th, with NBC Sports Network's "Fight Night". The blockbuster fight card featuring some of the best fighters of the sport in fiercely competitive bouts is sure to thrill true boxing fans. Even though the action inside the ring is expected to be furious, the star of this show may in fact be the state-of-the-art venue that will host it. The Aviator Sports Complex is the perfect example of the modern sports and entertainment locale that transforms the visitor's experience from merely watching an event into being a real part of it all. Although fans will come to watch the fights Saturday night, they will find many other things to do between the matches. The Aviator Sports Complex, home of the Brooklyn Aviators hockey team, also offers great food and a full bar. We're not just talking hotdogs and beer here. During the heat of "March Madness", the numerous big-screen TVs throughout the Complex will ensure that sports fans won't miss a moment of all the championship college basketball action. The Complex is a former airplane hangar that has been converted into a massive indoor/outdoor recreation and entertainment center. On the way to the fights, visitors can take a stroll through "Main Street", the historic aviation-themed entryway that is complete with games, a flight simulator, a rock climbing wall, and other interactive experiences. The Complex has hosted numerous boxing shows in the past, but this card is by far it biggest boxing event to date. Once fight fans take their seats, they will be treated to a fantastic night of boxing. The main event pits Brooklyn's own former five-time champion Zab Judah in a 12-round IBF Title Eliminator against undefeated Vernon Paris of Detroit. Also featured is a pair of 10- round heavyweight matches. The first is a crossroads fight between former heavyweight champion Sergei Liakhovich and up-and-coming young gun Bryant Jennings of Philadelphia. The second is a contest between Tomasz Adamek, a former two-division champion, and Nagy Aguilera, a big puncher known as "Dominican Dynamite". Those who come to the fight instead of watching on the NBC Sports Network, get to see several untelevised bouts featuring some of the best rising talent in the sport, including Brooklyn middleweight Curtis Stevens, and undefeated knockout artist Santander Silgado. There really is nothing like watching a fight live from ringside. Even more than other sports, the live crowd plays a huge role in the event itself. Countless times in the history of boxing, a cheering crowd has inspired a losing fighter to turn a tough night into a great victory. Saturday night in Brooklyn should be no different. With most of the fights too close to call, they could come down to the wire on fight night. If you haven't experienced boxing live, this is the night to become a part of it. March 24 Fight Info: The Zab Judah vs. Vernon Paris fight is a 12-round IBF junior welterweight title eliminator featured on NBC Sports Network "Fight Night". The fight is part of a triple header that includes Sergei Liakhovich vs. Bryant Jennings in a 10-round heavyweight fight and Tomasz Adamek vs Nagy Aguilera, in a 10-round heavyweight fight. A full all-star under card will support the three main bouts. Tickets to this blockbuster event are priced at $200, $100 and $75 and may be purchased by calling Main Events (973) 200-7050, Peltz Boxing (215) 765-0922, or online throughwww.peltzboxing.com.

    PHOTOS AND QUOTES FROM BROAD STREET BOXING PRESS CONFERENCE JENNINGS VS. TUPOU & KENNEDY VS. BELMONTES Teon Kennedy and Bryant Jennings Photo Credits :John DiSanto PHILADLEPHIA - A press conference was held to officially announce the next installment of the NBC Sports Network "Fight Night" boxing series. On December 8, 2012, a Philly-centric fight card will take place at Temple University's Pearson / McGonigle Hall on Broad Street in North Philly. The NBCSN broadcast will begin at 9PM ET. North Philly native and #5 heavyweight contender Bryant Jennings, 15-0, 7 KOs, takes on Bowie Tupou, 22-2, 16 KOs, of Tonga, in the 12-round main event with Jennings' USBA heavyweight title on the line. The 10-round junior lightweight co-feature bout is an intriguing face off between North Philadelphian Teon Kennedy, 17-2-2, 7 KOs, who's coming off a world title challenge, and the undefeated Texan Jerry Belmontes, 17-0, 5 KOs. Kennedy is moving up in weight for the fight. From the lobby of the fight venue, Hall of Fame promoter J Russell Peltz, a Temple University Grad, conducted the press conference, and along with Jennings and Kennedy spoke about the upcoming blockbuster event promoted by Main Events, Peltz Boxing, Goossen Tutor and BAM Boxing. J Russell Peltz with Temple Owl Photo Credits: John DiSanto J Russell Peltz: "This building opened in 1969 and I've been a (Temple Basketball) season ticket holder ever since. But I never thought I'd be promoting a fight here, certainly not on national television. "Fight Night" is probably the most successful boxing series going right now on television because the fights are actually competitive.

  • Oscar “Kaboom” Rivas on Special Mission to Become Heavyweight & Bridgerweight World Champion
    Oscar “Kaboom” Rivas on special mission to become heavyweight & bridgerweight World Champion QUEBEC CITY, Ontario, Canada (March 24, 2021) – Fresh off his recent third-round stoppage of Sylvera “Sly” Louis in their rematch, World Boxing Council (WBC) No. 1 rated bridgerweight Oscar “Kaboom” Rivas (27-1, 19 KOs) is on a special mission to not only become the first bridgerweight world champion but capture the world heavyweight crown as well. A 2008 Colombian Olympian, Rivas is currently rated as the WBC’s No. 1-rated contender in the bridgerweight division (-224 lbs.), and No. 9 in The Ring magazine’s heavyweight rankings. Prior to his rematch with Louis, Rivas hadn’t fought in 20 months due mainly to COVID-19 pandemic restrictions. Never- the-less, “Kaboom” remained professional, training throughout his ring absence, and now he’s positioned to fight for the inaugural WBC bridgerweight title. “I love this sport,” Rivas said from his Montreal home. I dedicate my life to boxing. I never stopped training because I love it and I can’t live without it. I am an athlete! The pandemic didn’t make things easy for me or anybody else, especially for a natural heavyweight like me. “In the ring, I am having fun, and that’s what drives me. After I was able to knockdown my opponent (Louis) in the first round, my coach asked me to take advantage of the opportunity to box because I hadn’t fought in 20 months. I hadn’t stepped in the ring and that’s what I enjoy every minute of.” Even though he’s on the precipice of winning his first world title, as a bridgerweight fighter, Rivas will not be fully satisfied without becoming a 2-division world champion.
