(JUNE 23) North Bergen, NJ - "Mighty"
Mike Arnaoutis is pumped and ready for his June 25 return at North
Bergen, NJ's Schuetzen Park this Thursday night. Arnaoutis, 21-3-2 (10
KO), will be fighting in Pound 4 Pound Promotions' "Summer Rumble"
10-round main event this Thursday night against Puerto Rican knockout
artist Doel Carrasquillo.
"I'm looking forward to fighting in front of all my fans," says
Arnaoutis, a native of Athens, Greece but now residing in Atlantic City,
NJ. "It's going to be a great night. I promise to put on a great show
for the fans and prove that I'm here to stay. Boxing is my life and I
won't stop until I win the world title."
Arnaoutis is coming off a loss to Victor Ortiz on HBO this past March.
For this fight Arnaoutis has rejoined trainer Bill Johnson in Atlantic
City. Arnaoutis held the USBA and NABO junior-welterweight titles and
has faced the very best in the 140 pound division, including three world
champions.
Carrasquillo is 12-11-1 (10 KO) and resides in Lancaster, PA. He has
scored several spectacular wins, including a third round knockout of The
Contender star Aaron Torres. He also scored a first round KO against
13-0 Wayland Willingham and a fourth round KO of 13-0 Isam Khalil.
"I want to thank Pound 4 Pound Promotions, Pat and John Lynch for
believing in me and giving us the opportunity to come back," said
Arnaoutis. "Most importantly, I want to thank the Greek fans who
continue to support me in Astoria, Queens and the entire Greek
community. We'll be there till the end.
"I'm still the champion of Greece and I won't let you down. Thanks for
believing in me."
