Back-to-back shows planned for Dedham, MA

Vertex Promotions has added a show on Friday night, September 24th, the night before its previously announced Saturday, September 25th show at Moseley’s On The Charles in Dedham, Massachusetts. The two shows, as well as a USA Boxing-sanctioned amateur card Saturday afternoon (Sept. 25th, the 2021 New England Championships) will all take place at the same venue, hosted by Vertex Promotions.
 
“Coming off our successful first show on July 31st,” Vertex promoter Dave Clark said. “we decided to promote another show on September 25th at Moseley’s. There’s a lot of local talent in this region and we want to try to keep them as active as we can, but we were contacted by some many boxers who wanted to compete on our September 25th card that we are promoting back-to-back shows on consecutive nights at the same venue, Mosley On The Charles. We’re excited about ‘Fight Night on the Charles at Mosley’s II & III’ and look forward to the rare challenge of promoting two nights in a row at Mosley’s”
