New York, NY – Although televised action slows down a bit from what we’ve grown accustom to in 2011, rest assured fight fans; the limited offering of pugilistic warfare isn’t light on the punch!
“LADIES & GENTLEMEN: IT’S SHOWTIME!”
Showtime’s critically acclaimed series “ShoBox” saves a seemingly dismal weekend in the sport and delivers an intriguing card of “up and comers” when unbeaten hard-hitting combatants Sharif Bogere (20-0, 12 KOs) and Francisco Contreras (16-0, 13 KOs) throw down in a 10 round lightweight (130) main event at the Texas Station Gambling Hall & Hotel in Las Vegas, Nevada. Also, undefeated Jermell Charlo (15-0, 7 KOs) battles Francisco Santana (12-2-1, 6 KOs) in a slated 8 frame junior middleweight (154) scrap in the curtain raiser. Coverage begins tonight at 11 PM ET on Showtime.
