Click here to watch this event on GoFightLive!

Tuff-N-Uff returns to the Orleans Hotel & Casino on July 2 with two eight-woman tournaments; Larry Mir,cousin of former UFC heavyweight champion Frank Mir, also headlines. The co-feature sees a rematch of an exciting but controversial contest from May 30, as Zach Grossman (1-1) meets Barry Prevost (2-2) for a second time.

Among the early favorites in the 125-pound bracket are Virginia’s Nicole Hess (2-1), North Carolina’s Jenn Yum (5-1) and fighting twin Jillian Lybarger (2-1). Hess, who meets Jenn Yum (5-1), is no stranger to title fights. All three of the MiKiDo MMA product’s fights have been contested with a title on the line, and Hess has delivered with first-round submissions in two of the three outings. Hess now looks to rebound from the first loss of her career after dropping a split-decision result to Audrey Pang this past November.

The winners of the first-round contests in both tournaments will return for the semifinal round on Aug. 6, while two new champions will be crowned in the Sept. 24 final round.

Strohl, of Las Vegas won his first sixteen bouts before dropping a split decision to Calvin Lampkin (16-2).

Srohl went on to win nine straight fights before dropping seven of nine to world class opponents as he has fluctuated between Super Middleweight and Heavyweight.

Those losess have come to Heavyweight contender Cedric Boswell (20-0); former Heavyweight title challenger Calvin Brock (14-0); Rob Calloway (52-6); Currant IBF Light Heavyweight champion Tavoris Cloud (14-0); Perennial contender Joey Spina (22-1-1) and his most recent effort, Strohl dropped a ten round unanimous decision to undefeated prospect, Mark Tucker (11-0).

PHILADELPHIA (May 28, 2010)—On Friday night, June 4th boxing returns to The Legendary Blue Horizon with a great night of professional boxing as well as a celebration of Vernoca L. Michael’s sixty-fifth birthday.

The card is promoted by Blue Horizon Boxing Promotions LLC and SAM Promotions.

In the main event, world ranked Light Heavyweight Yusaf “Mack Attack” Mack will see action against an opponent to be named in an eight round bout.

Mack, of Philadelphia has a record of 28-3-2 with seventeen knockouts and is ranked number eleven in the world by the IBF.

Mack will be looking to get back in the win column and climb back up the rankings after his sixth round stoppage defeat to former world champion Glen Johnson on February 5th in Miami.

That fight was an IBF elimination bout and a win would have catapulted Mack into a world title opportunity with reigning champion Tavoris Cloud.

Before that setback, Mack had won five consecutive bouts which included an impressive decision over the highly regarded Chris Henry on February 6th, 2009.

This will be Mack’s first appearance in Philadelphia since September 26th, 2008 when Mack took out Omar Pittman at the Philadelphia Armory.

Mack is undefeated at The Legendary Blue Horizon (7-0, 4 KO’s) and in his last appearance at “The Blue” Mack won the USBA Super Middleweight title with an eighth round stoppage over Shannon Miller.

In the co-feature, hot prospect, Coy “Pretty Boy” Evans will take on an opponent to be named.

Evans of Philadelphia has a record of 8-0-1 with two knockouts and is quickly becoming one of the hottest fighters in the city.

After not recording a stopping his first six bouts, Evans has scored explosive knockouts in two of his last three outing which includes his most recent outing when Evans annihilated Morris Chule in three rounds on April 9th at The Arena in Philadelphia.

In a six round Super Middleweight fight, undefeated Farah Ennis (13-0, 7 KO’s) of Philadelphia will be looking for his second consecutive victory at The Legendary Blue Horizon he took out Frankie Santos in two rounds. Ennis, who is the brother of currant USBA Jr. Middleweight Derek Ennis, will be taking on an opponent to be named.

Van Oscar Penovaroff (5-0, 4 KO’s) of Kailua Kona, Hawaii will take on Gustavo Dailey (4-8, 1 KO) of Philadelphia in a four round Lightweight bout.

In a four round Ladies Jr. Middleweight bout, the popular Olivia “The Great” Fonseca (3-2-2, 2 KO’s) battles undefeated Akima Stocks (3-0, 3 KO’s) of Newark, NJ in a bout scheduled for four rounds.

In a four round Super Featherweight bout, Keenan Smith (1-0) of Philadelphia will take on Alex Monte, 1-0.

In a four round Jr. Middleweight bout, Ismael Garcia (1-0) of Milville, NJ takes on debuting Tyrone Rivera of Allentown, PA.

Legendary Blue Horizon favorite, Darrell Jones (3-0, 1 KO—all at The Legendary Blue Horizon) will take on Marcus Hall (3-1, 2 KO’s) of Rochester, NY.

Tickets for this great night of boxing are scaled at $45, $55, $65, $125, and $200 and are available at The Legendary Blue Horizon (215) 763 0500 and the Muhammad Ali Boxing Gym (267) 979 2163.

NEW YORK (May 27, 2010)—This Saturday three world titles will be contested on two continents as part of a packed day of boxing on www.gofightlive.tv

The action kicks off Saturday at 2:30 pm eastern time with Vitali Klitscchko defending the coveted WBC Heavyweight champion against Albert Sosnoswki.

Klitshcko has been nothing short of perfect since his return to the ring in 2008 after a four year absence. He reclaimed the WBC crown in his first fight back he dominated and eventually stopped reigning champion Samuel Peter. He then stopped former cruiserweight king Juan Carlos Gomez in nine and then undefeated U.S. hopeful Chris Arreola in ten. In his last bout, Klitschko again dominated an American challenger in Kevin Johnson as Klitschko basically took every second of every round against the boastful Johnson.

Klitshcko, 39-2 with thirty-seven knockouts is generally regarded as the number-two ranked Heavyweight in the world behind his brother Wladimir who is the Recognized champion.

Sosnowski had a very gaudy record of 45-2-1 with twenty-seven knockouts and from all indications is in incredible shape as many have not given this huge underdog a chance.

The native of the United Kingdom received this opportunity mainly on the strength of going 2-0-1 in his last three bouts which included a eighth round knockout over former Klitshcko victim Danny Williams. In his last bout, Sosnowski won the European Heavyweight championship with a twelve round unanimous decision over Paolo Vidoz.

A two fight undercard will be part of the broadcast as former Cruiserweight title challenger Jonathon Banks (24-1-1, 17 KO’s) will take on Jason Gavern (19-7-3, 8 KO’s) for the NABF Heavyweight title.
Rounding out the card will be cruiserweight battle between undefeated Nenad Borovcanin (25-0, 18 KO’s) battling Raymond Ochieng (21-10-3, 17 KO’s)

Vazquez has developed into one of the more exciting fighters in the lower weight classes as he has compiled a undefeated mark at 18-0 with fifteen knockouts.

Vazquez won the championship with an emphatic fourth round stoppage over Filipino wunderkind, Marvin Sonsona.

That fight was a pick’em fight going in but Vazquez quickly established his dominance and punded Sonsona to win the vacant crown.

In Bedak, Vazquez will face another undefeated fighter as he is ranked number-one by the WBO. After registering just three knockouts in his first thirteen bouts, Bedak has stopped his previous two opponenst which includes his last victim which was then 38-3 Ramie Lupat.

Like Vazquez, Bedak is perfect with a record that reads 15-0 with five knockouts.

In the Super Featherweight co-feature, Martinez is quickly establishing himself as one of the top 130 pounders in the business. He will be attempting to make his second successful defense of his crown.
He won the title fourteen months ago with a highlight reel Fourth round stoppage over Nicky Cook in Cook’s homeland in the United Kingdom. Martinez made his first defense this past September with a ninth round stoppage over late replacement Feidor Viloria.

Martinez of Vega Baja, Puerto Rico has a record of 23-0-1 with fourteen knockouts.

Munguia of Leon, Nicaragua showed tremendous power early in his career as he took out eight of his first nine opponents. After going through a few ups and downs, Munguia has been on quite a roll as he has won four in a row and three by knockout which includes his bout when he took out Jose Gutierrez (12-6-2) in six rounds on February 6th.

A third world title has been added to the card as Hanna Gabriel (9-0-1, 5 KO’s) takes on Gardy Pena (9-1-2, 6 KO”s) for the vacant WBO woman’s Jr. Middleweight bout.

Fans can also see the Arroyo twins (McWilliams and McJoe in separate bouts).

PHILADELPHIA (May 24, 2010)—On Sunday afternoon, June 13th A big day of boxing is planned for the beautiful Hyatt Regency along the Philadelphia waterfront that will be headlined by the son of the legend, Aaron Pryor Jr.

The card is promoted by Joey Eye Boxing.

Pryor of Cincinnati, Ohio has an impressive mark of 13-2 with ten knockouts will face an opponent to be named later in a scheduled eight round main event.

Pryor has followed in the footsteps of his father and hall of famer, Aaron “The Hawk” Pryor and is looking for a major fight.

Pryor, thirty-one years old, won his first eleven fights, eight by knockout until he dropped an eight round split decision to Joshua Snyder (7-3-1). Pryor holds a third round knockout over former U.S. Olympian, Dante Craig (17-7-1) as well as a unanimous decision over tough veteran Alphonso Williams (10-3).

In his last bout, Pryor scored an eighth round stoppage over Kendall Gould (12-14-1) on April 9th in Green Bay, Wisconsin.

In a co-feature bout, veteran Jr. Middleweight Ossie Duran will see action in an eight round bout against battle tested Jerome Ellis.

Duran of Paterson, NJ by way of Accra, Ghana is a very rugged customer who has fought top opposition to say the least.

In 2004, he scored an impressive stoppage over highly regarded Jamie Moore (20-1) in Moor’s home area in the United Kingdom.

In his next bout, Duran won the British Commonwealth title with a twelve round unanimous decision over than undefeated Colin McNeil (8-0). He lost that belt in his next bout to British favorite Bradley Pryce.

He then went on to win three straight including an eight round unanimous decision over former Contender Season one contestant Jonathan Reid.

Duran then stepped up the competition even further as he took knockout artist James Kirkland (18-0) the distance before dropping a unanimous decision. After a draw with capable Eromesele Albert (21-2), Duran went the distance with world ranked Middleweight David Lopez (37-12) and losing a close majority decision to hot prospect Fernando Guerrero (15-0).

In his last bout, Duran scored a four round unanimous decision over Jamaal Davis (11-5) on February 27th in Atlantic City.

Ellis of Coconut Creek, Florida by way of Nassau, Bahamas has a very deceiving record of 12-11-1 with ten knockouts as he has faced very tough competition.

Ellis won his first five bout before dropping two in a row with the latter being to currant world ranked Welterweight Said Ouali. In Ellis’ next nine bouts he went 7-1-1 with his only defeat to than 17-1 Anthony Thompson.

The last bout in that nine fight run was a upset knockout over than 28-4 Neil Sinclair that was televised on ESPN 2.

To say the sledding got rough for Ellis would be an understatement as he went 0-5-1 in his next six bouts.

That unfortunate run consisted of losses to world title challengers Billy Lyell (13-3) and Miguel Rodriguez (28-2) and undefeated prospects in Henry Crawford (18-0-1).

Ellis was able to salvage a draw against than 24-2 Richard Gutierrez.

The tough matchups have continued for Ellis as he has lost three of his last four against type-flight competition that includes a majority decision loss to hot welterweight prospect Antwone Smith, undefeated prospect Shawn Porter and in his last bout to former star of the Contender Ahmed Kaddour (21-2-1).

Undefeated cruiserweight Julio Cesar Matthews (9-0, 5 KO’s) of Reading, PA will take on Philadelphia banger, Garrett Wilson (7-4, 2 KO’s) in a six round bout.

Popular Jr. Welterweight, Elad Shmouel (22-2, 11 KO’s) of Tel Aviv, Israel will fight in a scheduled six round bout.

Undefeated Light Heavyweight, Jason Escalera (8-0, 7 KO’s) will be involved in a bout scheduled for four rounds.

Undefeated Cruiserweight, Patrick Farrell (5-0, 3 KO’s) will take on opponent to be named later in a four round bout.

In a four round Super Featherweight bout, Ryan Carson (2-0, 1 KO) will take part in a four round fight.

In a four round Heavyweight bout, Andres Gustaffson (4-0, 2 KO’s) of Norrkoping, Sweden will take on an opponent to be named in a four round bout.

Ruslan Provodnikov scored an impressive ninth round stoppage over late-sub Emanuel Augustus in a scheduled ten round Jr. Welterweight bout.

In the middle of round five, Provodnikov landed a booming right hand that sent Augustus to the seat of his pants. Provodnikov landed some vicious shots in an effort to end the fight but the grizzled vet Augustsus got in a right of his own that briefly sent Provodnikov back. Augustus was able to survive the round but things did not get any better.

Provodnikov won the subsequent rounds as he was effective with hard right hands and Augustus began to leak blood from his nose starting in the sixth round. In the ninth frame, Provodnikov landed two huge shots to the head and Augustus slumped in the corner. Augustus showed guts be getting to his feet but he would only endure a vicious assault that included a flush right-left-right combination that put Augustus down for a third and final time as the referee stopped the bout at 1:50 of the ninth frame.

HOBOKEN, N.J. (May 19, 2010) – NABF heavyweight champion Johnathon Banks makes his first title defense May 29 on the “Fists Of Steel” pay-per-view event, featuring WBC heavyweight title holder Vitali “Dr. Ironfist” Klitschko against challenger Albert “The Dragon” Sosnowski, live from the 61,000-seat Veltins Arena in Gelsenkirchen, Germany.

Detroit punisher Banks (24-1, 17 KOs), ranked # 7 in the world by the WBC and #9 by the IBF, takes on veteran Jason “The Sensation” Gavern, rated in the top 15 of the WBC, in the 12-round co-feature.

“Fists Of Steel,” presented by K2 Promotions and Klitschko Management Group, is being distributed in North America by Integrated Sports Media for live viewing at 3 PM/ET – 12 PM/PT on both cable and satellite pay-per-view via iN Demand, DIRECTV, Avail-TVN and DISH Network in the United States, as well as Bell TV, Shaw PPV and Viewer’s Choice in Canada, for a suggested retail price of only $24.95.

A 3-time U.S. national amateur champion, Banks captured the NABF crown last March in what was voted NABF Fight of the Year, stopping Travis Walker (34-3-1) with a dramatic KO in the sixth round of their title fight in Germany. The former NABO and IBO cruiserweight champion, Banks has been the chief sparring partner for the Klitschko brothers for the last three years. He has now emerged in his own right as one of the top heavyweights in the world.

“We’re excited by the progress Johnathon has made in the heavyweight division,” said Tom Loeffer, managing director of K2 Promotions. “He was struggling to make weight as a cruiserweight when he lost to Adamek, but now he is much stronger as a heavyweight. By winning the NABF title the way he did, Johnathon has established himself as one of the top heavyweights in the world today.”

Gavern also won a title in his lasts fight, when he captured the WBC Caribbean Boxing Federation title with a win over Manuel Quezada. In what turned out to be the biggest win of his career, Gavern beat Quesada (29-4), rated #7 at the time by the WBC, by a 10-round decision to capture the title. The battle-tested Floridian has also defeated Cisse Salif, Jermell Barnes and Raphael Butler during his 7-year career.

In the 12-round main event, Sosnowski will attempt to upset Klitschko to become the first Polish heavyweight champion of the world against 3-time heavyweight champion Klitschko (39-2, 37 KOs), who returned to the ring after a 4-year retirement to regained his WBC championship belt by stopping Samuel Peter in 2008. He has since defended his title three times by stopping Juan Carlos Gomez and Chris Arreola, and winning every round against Kevin Johnson last December.

Sosnowski (45-2-1, 27 KOs), now fighting out of the United Kingdom, became the European champion by capturing the European Boxing Union heavyweight title in his last fight. He won a 12-round decision last December against Italian Olympian, Paolo Vidoz.

The action begins promptly at 7:30pm eastern

Reading, PA (5-18-10) – Not since Evander Holyfield reigned supreme during the late 1990s has America had a heavyweight champion to unite behind. As the Klitschko brothers and David Haye vie for dominance in a divisions where the top contenders are anonymous to most Americans, the call for an American challenger grows ever louder.

Travis Kauffman hears those cries as a call to action.

The 24-year-old Kauffman, a native of the rugged Pennsylvania city of Reading, will face Chris Koval of Youngstown, OH this Saturday, May 22 at the Sovereign Center in Reading. King’s Promotions will promote the pro-am boxing event entitled “Pain on Penn Street”.

The Kauffman-Koval fight will be contested for the vacant WBF Intercontinental Heavyweight title. More importantly, it will give Kauffman an opportunity to show the boxing world and his hometown fans why he is one of the sport’s best kept secrets.

“I’ve known I was going to be heavyweight champion of the world ever since my first amateur fight at nine years old,” says Kauffman, who has a record of 19-1 (15 KO). “In 15 years of boxing I’ve been through it all. I’ve been hit by the biggest punchers, danced with the fastest slicksters but I’m still here. I believe deep inside of myself that I’m here for a reason, and that is to become heavyweight champion of the world.”

Unlike most modern American heavyweights who are transplants from other sports, Kauffman had an extensive amateur background that consisted of 64 bouts and was highlighted by a gold medal at the Police Athletic League Nationals. This experience has served him well in the pros, where the 6’3″, 230 pound Kauffman has had to outsmart larger foes on many occasions. He’ll have to outsmart and outslug another bigger foe in Koval, who is 6’4″ and routinely weighs in at 260 pounds. Of Koval’s 24 wins, 18 have come by way of knockout, to go along with 6 defeats.

“I always believed that it wasn’t the size of the dog in the fight but the size of the fight in the dog,” Kauffman says. “The bigger the challenge that is in front of me, the hungrier I get. I have a family, my two sons and my stepchildren that I fight for. I want to provide a better life for them and that motivates me so much. But I also fight for my fans, the people that have always believed in me through thick and thin.

“I’m proud to be an American and I would love to be the man that brings the heavyweight championship back here for good. The Klitschkos are great fighters so it won’t be easy but I never doubt myself for one second. Success only comes before Work in the dictionary so I live, eat and breathe Boxing.”

“Pain on Penn Street” will also feature Reading-based lightweight Van Oscar Penovaroff (4-0-1, 3 KO), welterweight Joseph Judah (5-0, 1 KO) of Brooklyn, NY, super-middleweight Derrick Webster (5-0, 4 KO) of Glassboro, NJ and the debut of Allentown, PA heavyweight William Miranda. Complete undercard information will be announced shortly.

Our plan was to apply more pressure in the later rounds and finish him. We’d had a long layoff and we wanted to take it easy in the beginning.

“Whatever we planned, it worked out. I feel good about my performance, especially after the long layoff.

I wanted to please the American fans, and I think I did. Now, I want to take collect a few more belts and take on the other (154 pound) champions.”

“Obviously, he had a good jab. That’s pretty clear,” Dawson said. “I think once he established the jab and the range, I was fighting to get back in it and he was already comfortable. I failed to get around the jab or beat him to it. “
