Ballroom Brawl Feb. 17!

Press Release: One Punch Productions has announced the full card lineup for the February 17, 2006 edition of its “Ballroom Brawl!” professional boxing series at the Tampa Westshore Doubletree Hotel in Florida. Carlos Deleon Jr., originally scheduled to face Alberto Albaladejo in the evening’s main event, was forced to withdraw due to a hand injury suffered during training in Puerto Rico. “Wink [Deleon’s manager Winky Wright] just called me with this news a couple of nights ago, so we worked nonstop to get a replacement for Carlos and we were able to secure undefeated Lajuan Simon (12-0-1) to step in,” stated One Punch Productions Director Terry J. Trekas.  A regional supermiddle weight title will be at stake. The co-main event of the evening will showcase heavyweight “Big” Gabe Brown 18-6, vs. Otis Tisdale, 22-18-1.  The undercard also features local talent including featherweight Carlos Manuel Rivera (6-1-1, 2 KO’s), light heavyweight Akinyemi “AK47” Laleye (3-0), featherweight Kermit Gonzalez (2-0), heavyweight Lenroy “Tommy” Thomas, and lightweight Jenna “Cowgirl” Shiver (1-0). Doors open at 7:00 PM. Tickets are available through ticketmaster or by contacting One Punch Productions at 813-503-8109, or visit www.onepunch.net.
