Atlantic City, NJ card draws near

 Tickets are on sale now (through Ticketmaster) for Boxing Insider Promotions’ June 13th show at the Tropicana Hotel and Casino in Atlantic City, New Jersey. The seven-bout card is built around tri-state talent, with fighters from Philadelphia, New Jersey, and New York filling out a lineup made for fans who want to see their own local boxers under the lights. The main event features two undefeated heavyweights look to do battle in a 50/50 war. Bruce “2.0” Seldon Jr., son of former WBA heavyweight champion Bruce Seldon Sr.,, meets Josh Popper, a South Jersey native now based in New York City, where he founded Breadwinners. Both men carry knockout power, and both are looking to bring the fireworks. With the winner moving to the next level of his career, neither plans on leaving it to the judges.
 
The co-feature brings a Philadelphia fighter into the spotlight. Daiyaan Butt, of Philadelphia. With a record of 20-4, Butt, a Temple University graduate, is one of the city’s busiest young pros. He'll look to put on a show for the fans who have followed him up the ranks. Standing across from Butt will be Willmank Canonico Brito (13-10-2) in what shapes up as an action-packed eight-rounder between two fighters who come to throw hands.
 
"This is Boxing Insider's show at the Trop since 2024. In the main event we’ve got two undefeated heavyweights with deep local roots, Josh Popper and Bruce Seldon Jr., fighting each other. That never happens at this level. Add a card full of regional fighters from Jersey, New York, and Philly, and you’ve got old-school boxing in a historic fight town. Get your tickets and come see the fights live,” said promoter Larry Goldberg.
