15Rounds was informed that John Lynch’s Pound 4 Pound Promotions will return Thursday March 25 at the elegant Schuetzen Park ballroom in North Bergen, NJ.
In state prospects slated to appear on the card are lightweights Chris Green (3-1 one KO of Asbury Park), Danny McDermott (North Bergen – 8-1-1 3 KO’s), cruiserweight Patrick Farrell (5-0 3 KO’s – Jersey City), featherweight Victor Valenzuela (7-0 1 KO – Passaic), super middleweight Jason Escalara (7-0 6 KO’s) and junior middleweight Abe Torres 1-3-2 1 KO, each of Union City. Bronx NY’s Steven Martinez, a highly touted junior middleweight with a 3-0 (3) record will be on the card as well.
McDermot and Green each had good amateur backgrounds and are fixtures at Schuetzen Park. Farrell, a rapidly improving prospect, is coming off an impressive four round unanamous decision over The Contender’s Jon Schneider February 6. Valenzuela and Escalara are two highly touted local prospects. Martinez won the 2007 National Golden Gloves welterweight title, while Torres is best remembered for a thrilling August 09′ draw against Sparta’s Chris Murphy in what will go down as one of the most entertaining four round fights in North Jersey history.
Tickets will be available on location and at the majority of North Jersey’s boxing gyms.
