‘Fight Night’ Returns To Bethlehem
September 18th, 2012 | 
Author: BETHLEHEM, PA - Main Events brings NBC Sports Network’s “Fight Night” series back to Bethlehem, PA for the 5th edition of the popular nationally televised boxing program. TV broadcast begins at 9PM ET. Once again, the fights will be held at the beautiful new Sands Bethlehem Events Center. The place is the perfect setting for a fight. Last time, June1st, the Center was packed with real boxing fans. September 21st should be no different.
The trio of televised bouts that top the show all look like winners, but the four additional supporting fights, loaded with local talent, are nothing to sneeze at either.
In the main event, junior middleweight contenders Gabriel Rosado, Philadelphia, 20-5, 12 KOs, and Miami-based Charles Whittaker, 38-12-2, 23 KOs, lock horns in a 12-round, IBF title elimination bout. The winner of the fight, becomes the mandatory challenger for IBF world champion Cornelius “K9″ Bundrage. Both fighters are raring to earn their shot, so it figures they will wage war in Bethlehem.
In the 12-round championship co-feature, Bethlehem’s Ronald Cruz, 17-0, 12 KOs, defends his WBC Continental Americas Welterweight Title against Antwone Smith, 21-4-1, 12 KOs, of Miami. Cruz is the undefeated climber, but Smith is easily the best fighter he’s ever faced. The experience Smith brings will clearly put Cruz’ undefeated streak to the test before his hometown crowd.
The third featured bout is a 10-round light heavyweight contest that pits unbeaten Russian, Sergey Kovalev, 18-0-1, 16 KOs, against Buffalo, NY’s Lionell Thompson, 12-1, 8 KOs. Thompson was a lauded amateur who looks to get back to his winning ways after losing a narrow and somewhat controversial decision in his last start. Kovalev has kayoed all but three of his foes, and will look to add Thompson to his body count.
A pair of 6-rounders and a pair of 4-rounders fill out the rest of the night’s action. In a heavyweight match scheduled for six, Allentown, PA’s William Miranda, 5-5-1, faces Philadelphian Pedro Martinez, 6-6, 3 KOs, in what will likely be a rough and tumble battle of big men in need of a win. Both boxers are noted rumblers with a penchant for pleasing crowds. They figure to go right at each other on Friday.
Lightweight Jason Sosa, Camden, NJ, 4-1-3, 1 KO, meets Esteban Rodriguez, Lebanon, PA, 6-2-1, 1 KO in the other 6-rounder. Neither guy is a big puncher, but both are volume brawlers that bring the excitement. Sosa is coming off a pair of thrilling out-of-town draws, that he felt should have gone his way, while Rodriguez continues to build his record. Both are coming to Bethlehem to win.
Alex Sanchez of Camden, NJ, 0-1, will seek his first professional win against Dominique Foster of Hilliard, OH, 1-1-1. Both fighters are in the early stages of their respective careers and will try to make their bones in this Bethlehem four round junior middleweight bout.
Finally, Allentown, PA junior welterweight, Jerome Rodriguez, 0-0-1, squares off with Philly journeyman Kywayne Hill, 1-9, 1 KO, over four rounds. Rodriguez came up even in his pro debut, June 1 in Bethlehem, so he is returning to the Sands to capture that important first win. Hill is a true test for every newcomer he faces and will try to spoil things for Rodriguez on September 21.

Gary Quinn, Sr. Director, Program Planning and Acquisitions: “I come bearing very good news from the television side of this series. We could not be more pleased about the way we have started off this series, with the January and the March shows. There was some apprehension to be brutally honest about getting back into the boxing business, but all those fears are gone and the wonderful thing is that we can build more and more continuity. The ratings for the January and the March shows really exceeded our expectations. The nice thing about the March show is that everyone was saying . ‘Well nobody young watches boxing anymore.’ Well our strongest demo for that fight was men 18 to 34, so that’s a very key stat. We think Main Events and Peltz boxing built a very good buzz leading up to the fight, and we certainly appreciate all the support of the boxing community. We are also very happy to announce that we have added another date for our “Fight Night” series on September 21st “.
Kathy Duva, CEO Main Events: “It’s funny, There’s no champion here, there’s no challenger, It’s a 10-rounder between two guys who are top five fighters and it’s sadly become a rarity in the heavyweight division. We hope to make that a much more common occurrence as we go forward with NBC. We are really pleased that this fight is going to be that kind of pick ‘em fight. If you look on the boxing websites you see the comments. One guy says I’m picking Chambers, the next guy says I’m picking Adamek, well that’s what makes a great boxing match. This is a fight that both guys are certain they are coming to win.

James Bashir, Chambers Trainer: “It is a breath of fresh air to be working with someone who wants to fight with the best. You couldn’t ask for a better match up. These are two guys who want it, two different styles clashing and two guys who are not trying to avoid anything in boxing. Ziggy (Rozalski, Adamek’s advisor) said to me earlier, ‘We were surprised that Eddie took this fight,’ and I said ‘Hmm, we were surprised that Tomasz took this fight!’ Not only does this fight do good for the fans, not only does this fight do good for the heavyweight division, this fight does good for boxing period! Boxing needs healing and these guys meeting each other at this level is great! It’s a great fight. It’s one of the most exciting fights out there. Mayweather and Cotto are getting ready to fight, but to me it’s a fight that should have happened five years ago. This fight is happening right on time. Both guys have met and been defeated by the Klitschko brothers and where else do you go but right back to the top by fighting the best in the division? So on the 16th we are going to match wits to see who is the best guy to go back and meet the champions.”

Eddie Chambers: “I really think this opportunity is great for all parties involved. It’s almost like back in the days when I was growing up, you had those three channels and you could still get the fights. We are starting to get that back, where everybody could see the fights. I think it’s great. I think you couldn’t have put two more classy fighters in the ring together -two fighters that are going to fight, similar styles, more action. I know Tomasz is going to have a lot of fans coming to support him, so please come out and support me!”

Tomasz Adamek: “I am very excited to come back to Prudential Center. I want to give a good fight to my fans. I think for everybody this is a good situation, it is very close to my home and all my fans can come to see me.”

Women’s Elite Continental Championships - April 6
Go Fight Live TV (PPV)
Canada will host the best amateur female boxers from the Americas and 2012 Summer Olympic hopefuls from April 4-7, 2012. Sixty-five boxers from 15 countries will compete in ten weight categories during the 2012 American Boxing Confederation (AMBC) Women’s Elite Continental Championships.
This is the first time the Canadian Amateur Boxing Association (Boxing Canada) will host the championships. The tournament takes place at the NAV Centre, 1950 Montreal Road in Cornwall, Ontario, Canada and will be streamed live at www.gfl.tv.
Almost 150 athletes, coaches and officials will show the Canadian public why 2012 is the year of female boxers. This is expected to be the largest of the seven Continentals ever held. The 2012 London Olympics will mark the first time female boxers will compete at an Olympic Games.
“This tournament is a preview to the Olympics. Fans will see some of these boxers in the Olympic Games,” said AMBC Women’s Commission President, Dr. Christy Halbert who was instrumental in getting women’s boxing into the 2012 London Olympics.
The AMBC’s President, Dr Domingo Solano, declared that “for its 40 affiliate federations, this is only the beginning of the future for women’s boxing in the Americas”. Boxing Canada’s ten-member National Team will be competing including three-time World Champion, Pan American and Continental Champion Mary Spencer, along with Pan American and three-time Continental Champion Mandy Bujold.
“Boxing Canada is pleased to play host to this tournament for the first-time in our organization’s history,” said the President of Boxing Canada Pat Fiacco. “We look forward to welcoming the Americas to Cornwall and an intense competition full of world-class talent.”
Bouts will take place nightly beginning at 7 p.m, with the finals on April 7 at 7 p.m. Tickets are available from Boxing Canada at 1-613-238-7700 or Champs Eastside Boxing Club at 1-613-938-3281. Cost is $25 for the week or $15 for a daily pass.
The Continental Championships will feature a strong field of boxers from the Americas vying for spots to the 2012 London Olympics at the Association Internationale de Boxe Amateure (AIBA) Women’s World Championships from May 9-20, 2012 in Qinhuangdao, China. Twenty-four spots in three weight categories will be contested.
Sosa – Uicab Promises To Be A Thrilling Fight
Live International Net-cast Free on WBC Boxing TV
A great battle is expected when Mexican Edgar Sosa fights this Saturday in Cancun. He will face another Mexican Wilbert Uicab in a 12 round bout.
“Uicab a is a Mexican fighter and we Mexicans are tough. We always fight our hearts out in the ring and this time won’t be any different. People who knows about boxing, knows that when 2 Mexican boxers fight are in the ring, there will be a war” said the former Lt. Flyweight champion Sosa.
Sosa (44-7, 27 KO) wants to achieve his second victory of the year and hopes it take him closer to the chance of fighting for the world title.
Uicab (33-6-1, 18 KO’s) is the current WBC silver champion who is also standing in line to fight for the absolute title.
“Uicab is a boxer who never ceases his attacks. I like this kind of fighters, they help me show all my skills. Now I’m working hard on my left hand to make a powerful hook to the liver. I have nothing else in my mind but to win this fight” Sosa said

The WBA Super World Middleweight Championship
All German clash between Sturm and Zbik
Two experienced German middleweights enter the ring as Felix Sturm defends his WBA Super World Middleweight Championship LIVE from Cologne, Germany, against Sebastian Zbik.
Felix “Leonidas” Sturm, 33, is a 36 - 2 - 2 fighter who has held the WBA World - and then Super World - title since 2007.
Sturm was born in Leverkusen but now calls Cologne home, and will look to put on an impressive performance in what would be a fifth successful defence of his Super World Championship.
30-year-old Sebastian Zbik is the former WBO Intercontinental and WBC Interim Middleweight Champion, but has never held a full world title.
In his last outing - June 2011 - he lost a WBC World Middleweight Championship challenge against Julio Cesar Chavez Jr., who took a narrow majority decision.
