FELICIANO VS. TSURKAN
World rated brawlers featured on
ESPN2 Friday Night Fights April 25
For
Immediate Release
New York, Wednesday, March
19, 2008-After his incredible ten round 'heart'
fought war against Kermit Cintron for the IBF
Welterweight title on November 23, 2007, that
had every fan in attendance on their feet rooting
for the underdog, Jesse “El Rayo”
Feliciano (15-6-3, 9KO's #15 IBF) returns to
the ring for yet another no holds barred battle
against one of the most formidable boxers in
the Jr. Middleweight division, former NABF Champion
Andrey Tsurkan (25-3, 16 KO's # 10 WBC). This
sensational match up will be televised live
on the very popular ESPN2 Friday Night Fights
series on April 25th from the Utopia Paradise
Theater in the Bronx, NY.
“I have two of my most
exciting fighters going head to head on April
25. This fight has all the ingredients of fire,
power and passion to be one of the best fights
this year on ESPN2.This is what boxing is all
about; real fighters, tough challenges, real
fights,” said Star Boxing CEO Joe DeGuardia.
Tsurkan recently lost his
NABF title by a highly contentious split decision
to the undefeated Yuri Foreman at the Paradise
Theater on November 14, 2007. Believing he won
his last fight, as did fans in attendance, Tsurkan
jumps right back into the fire as he battles
the tough as nails Feliciano at the catch weight
of 152 pounds.
Feliciano who also fights
with passion, heart and a cast iron chin, gave
a visibly rattled and shocked Cintron the toughest
fight of his career. Jesse came very close to
scoring a huge upset but left the arena with
a legion of endearing fans. A win over Tsurkan
will most certainly put Feliciano right back
into the title picture.
This explosive main event
is brought to you by Star Boxing's immensely
popular fight series “Punchin at the Paradise”
in the Bronx.
