Pro Boxing is Back

I am happy to announce that pro boxing has come back to Louisville. It may not have the luster it once had, but it is definitely back. Resurrection 2 promises to be an exciting event. There will be 7 fights and they all promise to be pretty good.

If you come to the fight you can see Derico Murray is considered to be an up and coming Welterweight. He's a local guy who is looking forward to making a big name for himself. He's long and a little lanky, but he's fast and has some decent power. It's good to see the city produce another good pro prospect.

Another interesting fighter to look out for is Alex Medina. He's originally from Mexico, but fights out of Lexington. He' another nice heavyweight prospects. I have seen him fight several times before and this guy never ceases to amaze me. He can really take a punch as well as give it. He never seems to get tired. He keeps coming and coming. He's one tough hombre as well as a really good guy.

Also look for Liborio Solis. He will also be in action. He wont be fighting Derico like the flyer says (there was delay on paperwork so we had shuffle some fights around), but he will be there. This guy came all the way from Venezuela to train and fight for Dennis Page in Louisville. He doesn't speak a word of English, but he wants to learn from one of the best trainers in the game. he is also considered to be a really good prospect.

One of the best things about these club fights is that you get to meet all of the fighters. They all hang around after the fight and are usually really approachable. Coming to the fights would be a great way to get introduced to the local fight scene, get to know some great guys, and see a good night of boxing. Once again the fight info is:
