PRESS RELEASE: The Columbia Regional Sports Council is proud to announce “Fight Night in the Midlands,” an evening of action-packed professional boxing.  Presented by Dream Fight Boxing Promotions, this event will be held live at the Jamil Shrine Temple Saturday, September 24, 2005 at 8 p.m. Headlining the event is Berry “Killa Bee” Butler, the IBA Light Heavyweight Champ.  Other big names include Columbia natives Corey “Bad Boy” Goodwin and Moultrie Witherspoon as well as boxers from around the United States, many of whom have been featured on HBO PPV and ESPN. Full house attendance is expected (approximately 2500 people).

 

On Fight Night, Corey Goodwin of Dream Fight Boxing says, “Our goal is to provide boxing on a monthly basis.  Columbia is craving a venue that will offer entertainment, consistency, excitement and a place where you can socialize with a group or individuals.” 

 

 “We would also like to give back to our community.  At every event, we will announce an organization that serves our community and give them a monetary donation that will come directly from our proceeds,” Goodwin says.

 

A portion of the proceeds from this event will go to McEntire Joint National Guard Base Family Support, an organization designed to support and help the needs of the military family.
