Cinderalla Man Opponent Added to April 21 card!

Polish prospect Art Binkowki will face Tipton Walker in a heavyweight bout just added to the 8 Count Productions card to be held April 21, 2006 at Cicero Stadium in the Chicago area. Binkowki, "The Polish Warrior" is making his return to the ring after a ten-month layoff which saw him portray Corn Griffin in the award winning Cinderella Man movie last year, the story of heavyweight champion Jim Braddock. Braddock's TKO stoppage of Griffin in the third round on June 14, 1934. Although Binkowski, 14-1-2 with 9KOs has fought previously in Chicago, this is his first appearance in the Windy City since a draw with Charles Hatcher on November 24, 2004. Walker, 13-12-1 (6 KOs) is returning to an 8 Count Productions ring in which his last
appearance was a fourth TKO destruction of then highly regarded Chicago contender Chris Thomas.  Cicero Stadium is located at 1909 S. Laramie, just minutes from the Eisenhower and Stevenson Expressways. Tickets are on sale by calling 312-226-5800.
