IBF World Cruiserweight
Championship Bout to be televised on ESPN's Friday Night Fights
HOLLYWOOD, FL, May 13
– It’s just days away – the 12 round IBF championship showdown that
will crown a new king in the cruiserweight division on Friday, May 20 at
the Seminole Hard Rock Casino in Hollywood, Florida. Both O’Neil Bell
and Dale Brown, are ready for the fight of their lives.
“I’ve had a great
camp and I’m just itching to get into the ring on May 20th and show the
world what a true cruiserweight champion looks like,” said Bell (23-1,
22 KOs). “I’ve got a lot of respect for Dale Brown, but that will all
go out the window once the bell rings.”
“O’Neil Bell is a
very good fighter,” said Brown (33-3-1, 21 KOs). “But my experience and
determination to win, will be too much for him to handle on May 20th.
I’ve waited too long to be champion and I will not let this title slip
out of my hands.”
Bell-Brown, a 12
round championship contest, headlines an exciting night of world-class
professional boxing presented by Warrior’s Boxing Promotions, Inc. in
association with The Seminole Hard Rock Hotel and Casino.
Warrior’s Boxing
