BROADWAY BOXING TO AIR ON MSG NETWORK

*** Nate Campbell vs. Tiger Martinez in Main Event ***

The fourth installment of DiBella Entertainment's popular Broadway Boxing Presented by Mohegan Sun will air on Madison Square Garden Network on Tuesday, August 17, at 6:30 PM, and Tuesday, August 24, at 8:00 PM.

Two exciting rematches that took place on July 30 will highlight the card from Mohegan Sun Arena in Uncasville, CT. Bronx native "Tiger" Martinez (20-2-1, 9 KOs) faces Nate Campbell of Jacksonville, FL (24-2-1, 21 KOs) in the main event, and Aneudi "El Estudiante" Santos Freeport, NY (11-1, 7 KO's) squares off against Sam Reese of Santo Domingo, DR in the co-feature.

Campbell and Martinez fought to a thrilling draw in their first encounter in May of 2003 on NBC Sports. They are now fighting for the number two ranking in the IBF Junior Lightweight Division. Santos lost to Reese by decision this past January, and is looking to avenge his sole loss. Santos is nicknamed "El Estudiante" for his studies in both the ring and as a full-time student at Hofstra University on Long Island.

Giving the blow by blow commentary will be MSG's own Gus Johnson, teaming up with boxing authority Steve Farhood to handle the expert analyst duties, and New York native and former Golden Gloves champion Brian Adams for ringside reporting. WFAN and "Imus in the Morning" sportscaster Sid Rosenberg will serve as the ring announcer.
