NEW YORK (February 8, 2010)—This past weekend two big boxing events on the east coast took place and the action was as hot inside the ring as it was cold outside. Despite blizzard conditions, crowds in Philadelphia and Newark saw two incredible nights of boxing that started out on Friday from The Legendary Blue Horizon in Philadelphia where USBA Jr. Middleweight champion Derek “Pooh” Ennis scored a fifth round stoppage over Edwin Vazquez.
The next night in Newark, New Jersey, former Light Heavyweight and Cruiserweight champion Tomasz Adamek scored a unanimous decision victory over former U.S. Olympian Jason Estrada in Adamek’s second start as a Heavyweight. That bout was fought before an astonishing crowd of over 10,000 fans in the Prudential Center in Newark.
