Another Night of Boxing Coming to the Irvine Marriott
Posted by Raymundo Dioses on 03.18.2010
The Battle in the Ballroom returns on April 1st.
‘The Battle in the Ballroom' Fight series continues it successful Southern California run when it touches down at the Irvine Marriot on April 1.
The fight-filled night will feature six boxing matches and two mixed martial arts bouts in what will be a unique blend of the two sports in what will be a memorable night for those in attendance.
Heavyweights take top billing as the main event of the night.
Fresh from his Madison Square Garden victory over the well equipped Derrik Rossy, Shannon Miller, (16-4, 9KO) will take on Joe Hanks. Miller hopes to continue his winning ways on the road to a title bid, and it starts with Hanks.
Featherweight John Alcantara, who recently won his last ‘Battle in the Ballroom', will take on David "Thunder" Clark.
Undefeated in two bouts, Hugo Centeno Jr. will take on Mario Evangelista in a light middleweight special feature.
The heavyweight division will make another appearance in the ‘Battle in the Ballroom' when Natu Visiana takes on Netzahyualcoyotl Wilson. Visiana will be looking for his third straight knockout in as many fights.
Two mixed martial arts bouts will be featured in the night when Tyler Weathers takes on Gilroy, CA's Anthony Figueroa.
Also, Vince Parra and Anthony Morales, two fighters with two wins and no losses, will put their undefeated statuses on the line in what should be an action packed bout.
