Nicknamed “The Italian Sensation,” Phil Lo Greco (24-0, 13 KO’s) has thrilled fans in his native Canada as well as in Italy, but now he’s on a quest to conquer the United States as well. A six year pro who won the WBC International Welterweight title in 2010, the 28-year-old Lo Greco has won both of his fights in the United States in 2012, decisioning Hector Orozco in April at Boardwalk Hall and most recently, knocking out 16-1-1 Brandon Hoskins in the first round at Mandalay Bay Events Center in Las Vegas. Saturday night, he will battle Daniel Sostre (11-7-1 4 KO’s), a seven-year professional looking to end the year with a win over the undefeated Lo Greco.

The nephew of boxing legend Bernard Hopkins, 32-year-old Demetrius Hopkins (31-2-1, 11 KO’s) got back in the saddle in September after an 18-month layoff from the ring, and he looked sharper than ever in scoring a shutout unanimous decision victory over Doel Carrasquillo. Comfortably set in his new weight class of 154 pounds, “The Gladiator” is expected to get a stiff challenge from fellow Pennsylvanian Keenan Collins (14-7-3, 9 KO’s), an eight-year vet of the sport who is as tough as they come on the East Coast.

Also representing the City of Brotherly Love is 22-year-old junior middleweight prospect Julian Williams (9-0-1, 4 KO’s), who will be looking to extend his three fight winning streak at the expense of Aguas Buenas, Puerto Rico’s Jonel Tapia (8-2-1, 5 KO’s) in their eight round match-up.

In light heavyweight action, Fort Washington, Maryland’s Thomas Williams Jr. (10-0, 7 KO’s) will travel north to Atlantic City to take on Philadelphia’s Taneal Goyco (4-4-1, 2 KO’s) in a six round bout.

This hard-hitting night of fights will kick off with a pair of four round bouts, with New York junior welterweight Zachary Ochoa (2-0, 2 KO’s) facing Casa Grande, Arizona’s Michael Salcido (1-4) and Terron Grant (3-0, 2 KO’s) of White Plains, Maryland squaring off against Abraham Esquivel (5-2, 3 KO’s) of Monterey, Mexico in a lightweight bout.
