Boxing returns to Monticello on November 3

Press Release: Bob Duffy and Tony Mazzarrella’s Ring Promotions will run its second show in two weeks on Friday, November 3, 2006, at the Mighty M casino at Monticello Raceway in Monticello, New York.  The main event features Russell Jordan, 12-3 with 8 KOs, against Allen Conyers, 9-2 with 7 KOs in a New York State welterweight title bout. Conyers, who is trained by Buddy McGirt, scored a sensational first round TKO over highly-touted, once-beaten prospect Jonathan Tubbs in his last bout. Jordan is managed and trained by former junior middleweight title challenger Rocky Fratto of Geneva, New York.The co-feature pits extremely popular lightweights Justo “Sensational” Sencion, 24-3 with 14 KOs against Pascali Adorno, 9-5-2 with 4 KOs.  Also scheduled to appear is welterweight Freddy Soto, who lost a heartbreaking decision to Jose Leonardo Cruz at the Mighty M in his last bout in January, and Wesley Hobbs, 4-1-1 against rugged Mexican southpaw Juan Carlos Sanchez, 3-2.  “This is our fifth card at the Mighty M, and every show has been better than the last,” said Duffy. “The reasons are simple: We place a great emphasis on quality fighters and refuse to give them easy matches. That’s why the fan support has been so great at all of our shows there.”
