a rare boxing event is coming to tyneside! The Irish are coming and they have brought their best Cuban prospects to England for the first time; Mike Perez, Luis Garcia and Alexei Acosta are hoping to build on their flourishing careers, Irish Featherweight prospect Willie Casey is also set to fight. a trio of British Heavyweights also feature, former Commonwealt and British challenger Pele Reid, Geordie prizefighter competitor Dave Ferguson and unbeaten Mackem Danny Hughes all have fights pencilled in. Tyneside fighters George Watson (light) and Chris Mullen (welter) complete the card. it happens at The Lightfoot Centre on 28th of Febuary So you will have to record the boxing on ITV4 (Thaxton and Fury), SKY (Skelton + Olympians) along with JMM vs Diaz and John vs Juarez
The Cubans will be training under Glenn McCrory who now has his pro trainers license. He is really excited about these boxers and said that Luis Garcia was among the top prospects in the world at super middleweight. Ticket prices for this event apparently start at only £15 which seems like a bargain to me.
