Also featured is a clash between two Rockin’ Fights fan favorites, as Micky Scala (13-1, 7 KOs), coming off a first-round knockout win last month, takes on Long Island’s Zay Flaherty (8-1, 4 KOs) in a matchup reminiscent of the old-school Italian vs. Irish rivalries that helped build boxing in New York.
The card will also feature the return of US Marine Corps veteran and Hofstra graduate student Peter Latorre (6-0, 6 KOs), who delivered an exciting knockout of the night at Rockin' Fights 53.
