Jason Stone, Senior Vice
President of Live Nation stated, "Star Boxing has always been the
premier presenter of boxing programs in New York and we welcome the
association with them to bring the greatest boxers to the Westbury in
the Round stage. Westbury was built for boxing and Joe DeGuardia will
bring us the best and strongest shows."
Said Joe DeGuardia about
this unique event, "The NYCB Theatre at Westbury has long been a world
class venue for the best entertainment in the world. With seating in the
round, boxing fans will enjoy a unique and up-close opportunity to view
a great event that we're putting together."
"Issouf Kinda is a
sensational prospect who continues to shine with each fight. This is his
fourth fight in 2012 and he hasn't lost a round yet. Mike Arnaoutis
with his wealth of experience on a world class level who is looking to
work his way to another title shot represents a very tough test for
Kinda."
"Also, we're very excited to have "The Hebrew Hammer",
Cletus Seldin making his return to the squared circle. Cletus'
spectacular knockouts have played to packed houses since he turned pro
last year
and the fans at the NYCB Theatre at Westbury are going
to be amazed by his power. He's in against a very crafty veteran from
Chicago, Carl McNickels and is sure to see some new looks coming at him
in this fight."
"We're also putting together a sensational
undercard of local favorites and terrific young prospects which we will
announce shortly," DeGuardia continued.
Undefeated with a record
of 14-0-0, (5KO's), Kinda is coming off a unanimous decision win over
veteran Marteze Logan on AUGUST 24. He also served shut out unanimous
decision wins over Luis Rodriguez and Angel Rios earlier this year.
A
native of Athens, Greece, now fighting out of Queens, New York, the
hard hitting Arnaoutis has compiled a record of 24-7-2 (11KO's) over his
eleven-year career. Currently, the southpaw Arnaoutis is riding a two
bout winning streak, most recently knocking out veteran Broderick
Antoine in the seventh round at the Star Boxing VIP Boxing Event at
Russo's On The Bay on MAY 2.
The heavy handed 26 year old Seldin,
8-0-0 with six stoppages, is making the fourth start of his 2012
campaign, having scored three consecutive knockouts all within the first
two rounds this year. In his last start on JULY 28, he stopped Jonathan
Garcia in the first round.
Known as "The Assassin", the
28-year-old McNickels, 8-3-0 (6KO's), has fought all over the country
facing numerous top prospects.
In his last outing on St.
Patrick's Day, MARCH 17, McNickels fought hometown favorite Danny
McDermott at Madison Square Garden, losing a very close majority
decision in an epic, back-and-forth battle.
A full undercard of exciting fights featuring numerous local prospects will be announced shortly.
