In the spotlight for the 10-round main event, we have welterweight standout Avious Griffin (16-0, 15 KOs), squaring off against Jose Luis “Guerro” Sanchez (14-4, 4 KOs) for the highly coveted WBC USA Welterweight title. Griffin is rapidly gaining a reputation as a formidable force, having ended all but one of his 16 battles by knockout. He enters the ring carrying an impressive nine-fight KO streak, ready to meet Sanchez’s challenge.
Adding to the excitement is a featured 10-round Heavyweight Special Attraction, bringing “Gentleman” George Arias (18-1-1, 7 KOs) from the Dominican Republic, fighting out of The Bronx, against Helaman Olguin.
Fans will also get to watch two emerging lightweight talents from Brooklyn, each stepping into four-round face-offs on February 20th:
