PROVIDENCE (June 9, 2009) – The red,
white and blue will be flying high Friday night for a rare Massachusetts
Pro-Am boxing show, “Brawl At The Hall,” presented by Jimmy Burchfield’s
Classic Entertainment and Sports (CES) Inc., at historic Memorial Hall.
Iraqi War veteran Chris Traietti (7-1, 4 KOs), a light heavyweight from
Quincy, is in the 6-round main event against Shawn Kirk. (4-3, 2 KOs),
while U.S. Navy veteran and Plymouth firefighter, light heavyweight
Benny “The Hornet” Lescarbeau (3-0, 3 KOs), is back fighting in front of
his hometown fans in a 4-rounder versus Norman Johnson.
“Brawl At The Hall” is the second of four shows in “The Radisson Hotel
Plymouth Harbor Fight Series,” scheduled in 2009 at Plymouth Memorial
Hall and exclusively promoted by CES.
Also on the undercard in 4-round bouts is light middleweight Aleksandra
Magdziak Lopes (0-1), a Plymouth High graduate now fighting out of
Marshfield, who will face Natoya Ervin in a 4-round junior middleweight
bout.
The card also features a pair of pro-debuting boxers from Cape Cod,
super middleweight Paul Gonsalves and heavyweight Jesse Barboza.

Golden Gloves champion. He meets Brockton’s Huston Crayton in a 4-round
light heavyweight match. Three-time New England Golden Gloves
title-holder Barboza, a heavyweight fighting out of Barnstable, is also
