Saturday February 9 in Fargo ND bring Tyler “The Hitman” Hultin in the main event… His fights are always exciting and usual steal the show…. Aaron “Gorilla” Green will be featured as well.

News and Notes from around Minnesota… February 9′s Saint Paul show coming together…

February 9′s event is coming together nicely, The Main event will feature Raphael Butler (35,12) against Jeremy Williams (45,5,1) in a battle for the WBU heavyweight title! The co feature pits another of Minnesota’s heaviest hitters, Phil Williams (11,5) vs Sujjay El-Amin (12,6) for the WBU super middleweight world title… Plenty of power to close out the show in these two fights…

The undercard features a nice bantamweight Minnesota title fight between Antwan Robertson and Vicente Alfaro… Also on the undercard will be Rob Brant, Wilton Hilario, among others. It also looks like Al Sands will be fighting on this card as well.

The biggest bummer for this card is Hilario vs Muwendo being off, that could have stole the show… Boxing!!!

Up next in Minnesota boxing action, November 17, Caleb Truax (19,1,1) headlining!!

Quick Notes….

Posted on by

Cory Rapacz (matchmaker for RDS) informed me last night that that June 16th show will feature most of the same fights secured for the May 12 show that was moved due to the main event falling off. This extra time will allow for a quality main event replacement….

Jason “The American Boy” Litzau (28,3) has said he is now fighting on RDS’s June 16 show at the Hyatt in Minneapolis MN… Without being informed by RDS or Cory Rapacz, I can only assume this will have something to do with the new main event…. But there are other exciting rumors out there as well.

Most of the the fighters that were to have fought May 12 are quite upbeat about the date change to June 16. A date move is much better than a date cancel. Green, Patraw, Mason, and Brant are all looking forward to taking care of business June 16….. Dustin Mason has told me he is going to maintain weight and take this time to even further sharpen his readiness…

Vicente Alfaro (5,1) is training hard looking to get in on one of these upcoming midwest cards. It’s been over a year since Alfaro has had the opportunity to display his skills in the ring and he is more than ready to be given that chance…

Jungle Boy Promotions card set for June 23 has not announced any new fights for their card. Cerresso Fort (12,0,1) vs Dave Peterson (13,0) will headline. Michael Faulk (2,1) is said to be fighting as well as Al Sands (3,1). Sands is coming off of a tune-up win and looks to be who the promotion is trying to build upon….

Still waiting on a time table for Andy “Kaos” Kolle’s (25,3) hand… We will keep you posted….

T-Rex Promotions still looking towards July/August for their next show…

Love major PPV fight weeks, Mayweather/Cotto only days away…. There are rumors of some MN guys fighting on the undercards of some of this summers biggest shows…. Hoping for details in the near future…
