Ramon Alvarez Takes Center Stage Against Former World Champion Vivian Harris This Saturday RAMON ALVAREZ TAKES CENTER STAGE AGAINST FORMER WORLD CHAMPION VIVIAN HARRIS THIS SATURDAY LOS ANGELES (Nov. 27) – The latest member of the Alvarez family to make his mark in the boxing world, Ramon “Inocente” Alvarez will step into the spotlight on Saturday, November 29, when he faces surging former world champion “Vicious” Vivian Harris in the super welterweight main event of this weekend’s Televisa and FOX Deportes-televised event at Módulo Comude de San Miguel de Allende, Guanajuato, México. In the co-featured bout of the evening, unbeaten Guadalajara star Horacio “Violento” Garcia puts his perfect record on the line in a 10-round bantamweight bout against seasoned veteran Jose “Cacho” Silveira Alvarez vs. Harris, a 12-round super welterweight bout, is presented by Golden Boy Promotions in association with Canelo Promotions and sponsored by Mexico – Live It To Believe It! Doors open at 5:00 p.m. CT and the first fight begins 6:00 p.m. CT. The FOX Deportes broadcast begins at 10:00 p.m. ET / 7:00 p.m. PT and the Televisa broadcast airs at 11:30 p.m. CT. Part of a fighting family that includes brothers Canelo, Rigoberto and Ricardo, 28-year-old Ramon “Inocente” Alvarez (20-4-2, 12 KOs) hopes to add a world title to the family trophy case in 2015, but first he has business with Vivian Harris to tend to this Saturday. Unbeaten in 14 of his last 15 bouts, a stretch that includes six consecutive wins, Alvarez is in prime form at the moment, and after defeating Omar Chavez for the NABO 154-pound title in September, momentum is on the side of the Guadalajara native’s side. A native of Guyana who makes his home in Brooklyn, New York, 36-year-old “Vicious” Vivian Harris (32-9-2, 19 KOs) is one of the most respected veterans in the sport today, and though the former junior welterweight world champion hit a rough patch in his career for a bit, since his 2013 win over Shakha Moore, he is undefeated in three straight, with his two most recent victories coming over Danny O’Connor and Jorge Paez Jr. On Saturday, he looks to upset the odds once more and show the world that he’s not ready to be written off. Long considered to be a top candidate to bring a world title back to Mexico, 24-year-old Horacio “Violento” Garcia (27-0, 19 KOs) has upped the ante in 2014, going 4-0 with four knockouts leading up to this Saturday’s bout. Currently ranked number 13 in the world by the WBC, Garcia is coming off a fifth-round technical knockout of Jonathan Perez in August that saw him notch the first successful defense of his WBC Continental Americas title. Merida’s Jose “Cacho” Silveria (15-11, 6 KOs) is approaching his 10th year as a professional, and he hopes that a win over Garcia will set up a 2015 campaign in which he can challenge for a world title once more. A former IBA bantamweight champion, the 35-year-old will undoubtedly use his world-class experience to take Garcia into deep waters this weekend.

  • Pro Boxing Returns to Lowell, MA with Dicky Eklund, "Irish" Joey Mccreedy, Vivian Harris
    Pro Boxing Returns To Lowell, MA With Dicky Eklund, "Irish" Joey McCreedy, Vivian Harris LOWELL, Mass. (January 31, 2013) -- Chicago Fight Clubs Promotion is bringing professional boxing back to Lowell, Massachusetts - home of "Irish" Micky Ward and Dicky Eklund - on Saturday night, March 16 to kick-off St. Patrick's Day weekend, at Tsongas Center at UMass Lowell. "CFC Fight Night" will be a reunion, of sorts, for people involved in the award-winning movie, "The Fighter," which portrayed the lives of the Ward and Eklund brothers. Lowell fan favorites "Irish" Joe McCreedy and Sean Eklund, whose uncles are Micky and Dicky, will be showcased at home in Lowell for the second time as professionals. Dicky trains both fighters. (L-R) Dicky Eklund & "Irish" Joey McCreedy McCreedy (13-6-2, 6 KOs) will be fighting for the vacant United States Boxing Organization ("USBO") light heavyweight title against an opponent to be determined in the 10-round main event. Eklund (11-4, 2 KOs) will be fighting in the eight-round -co- feature. Three other Lowell boxers -- light heavyweight Ricky Sylvester, junior welterweight Noun Soriya and bantamweight Mike Martin - will all be making their pro debuts. World-class bantamweight Tyson "Prince of Haiti" Cave (19-2, 5 KOs), fighting out of Nova Scotia, Canada, will make his United States debut, while former world welterweight champion "Vicious" Vivian Harris (29-9-2, 19 KOs) returns from his brief retirement to fight for the first time in New England. ""We packed the house on a Wednesday night (May 9, 2012 in first pro card held there in seven years) with Joey and Sean (CFC promotes both fighters) on top of that card," Chicago Fight Clubs Promotion president Cynthia Tolaymat explained, “That was an incredible turnout, especially for a weekday, and a tribute to the passionate boxing fans in Lowell and surrounding towns.

Dubin P.A. 1481 Northwest 93rd Terrace Fort Lauderdale, Florida 33322 RE: VIVIAN HARRIS-CARLOS MAUSSA APPEALS HEARING DECISION Dear Mr. Dubin, Esq.: Vivian Harris engaged in a professional boxing contest versus Carlos Maussa for the WBA light welterweight world championship. This contest was held in Atlantic City at the Boardwalk Hall on June 25, 2005. In this contest, Mr. Maussa was declared the victor by knockout stoppage. The referee in this bout was Earl Brown. By letter dated July 2, 2005, the New Jersey State Athletic Control Board (hereinafter ‘‘SACB”) was notified by the attorney for Mr. Harris, Josh Dubin, that a review of the bout outcome was requested. The request was based on Referee Brown’s decision not to disqualify Mr. Maussa. It is Mr. Harris’ position that the referee should have disqualified Mr. Maussa for fouling Mr. Harris by striking him when he was down on the canvas. On July 15, 2005, a videotape of the bout in question was sent directly from HBO, which televised the bout, to the SACB. By letter dated July 25, 2005, Commissioner Hazzard, after applying the standard which allows him to change a referee’s decision, concluded that he would not overturn the actions of Referee Brown with regard to the conclusion of the bout.
