in thrilling fans March 20th at the Washington Avenue Armory in
Albany. Miller pounded out a six-round unanimous decision
victory over 266-lb Ryan "The Tank" Thompson (9-6, 5 KOs) and Faragon put on a display of speed and combination punching in

of the night was the first bout after the cameras went off between
local lightweight prospect Mike Faragon (4-0) and tough gatekeeper
Francisco Palacios (3-4-4, 1 KO). The two warriors banged for
six rounds with the largely partisan crowd cheering

Shocking TKO 7 Slugfest at
Brian Vera (16-1, 10 KOs), who's fighting style made him a fan
favorite on The Contender III last year, dealt Irish Olympian
and middleweight prospect Andy Lee (15-1, 12 KOs) his first loss by
shocking TKO in the seventh round of the 10-round main event before
3,600 fans at Mohegan Sun on Friday, March 21st. The ESPN2/Friday
Night Fights-televised war started as expected with Lee using
superior speed and boxing skills to keep Vera off-balance with his
southpaw right jab and land numerous power shots, knocking the Texan
down in the first.

Prospect
and famous boxing son James "Buddy" McGirt, Jr. (19-1, 9 KOs)
returned to the ring following his first loss with an impressive
10-round unanimous decision over number eight-ranked middleweight
and former champion Ray Joval (37-5 16 KOs) in the televised main
event of our annual "Night of Future Champions" card Friday, July
25th at the Saratoga Springs City Center.
Faragon's
dominating display of boxing skills and respecting the relentless
pressure and heart of Palacios. Faragon earned a unanimous
decision to remain undefeated.
Vera
displayed incredible stamina and chin to weather Lee's assault and
continue applying pressure. He eventually wore Lee down and --
though the Irish fighter continued to throw punches -- forced
referee Tony Chiarantano to stop an early candidate for Fight of the
Year at 2:10 of the seventh frame. Trainer Emanuel Steward has
already hinted a rematch is in the works. Aaron Pryor, Jr.
(9-0, 6 KOs) survived a few rocky moments to beat relentless
Alphonso Wlliams (10-4, 8 KOs) in the eight-round co-feature,
topping a competitive undercard that saw local favorites Matt
Remillard (13-0, 7 KOs) and Brian Macy (3-0, 1 KO) win tough
four-round decisions.
