CALIFORNIA'S KALIESHA WEST TO BATTLE ANGEL GLADNEY FOR BANTAMWEIGHT CROWN ON SEPTEMBER 18 AT STAPLES CENTER

LOS ANGELES, September 2 - Widely considered to be one of female boxing's best pound for pound fighters, Moreno Valley, California's Kaliesha West will return home to fight in Southern California on Saturday, September 18 to face South Carolina's Angel Gladney for the vacant WBO Bantamweight World Title on the off-television portion of the "200: Celebrate and Dominate" Mosley vs. Mora undercard at STAPLES Center in Los Angeles.

This world championship bout adds to a card that includes a main event featuring Five-Time World Champion Sugar Shane Mosley facing off against former World Champion Sergio "The Latin Snake" Mora, Mexican phenom Saul "Canelo" Alvarez facing former World Champion Carlos "Tata" Baldomir, top junior welterweight contender "Vicious" Victor Ortiz taking on former World Champion "Vicious" Vivian Harris and former World Champion Daniel Ponce De Leon taking on number two world rated featherweight Antonio Escalante in a WBO Featherweight Title Elimination bout.

"200: CELEBRATE AND DOMINATE" Mosley vs. Mora is promoted by Golden Boy Promotions and sponsored by Cerveza Tecate, AT&T and DeWalt Tools. The special night of boxing set for Saturday, September 18 at STAPLES Center is an official event of the Mexican Bicentennial celebration in Los Angeles, Calif., and will be produced and distributed live on HBO Pay-Per-View® beginning at 9 p.m. ET/6 p.m. PT.

Tickets for Mosley vs. Mora, priced at $200, $125, $75 and $20, are on sale now and available for purchase online at ticketmaster.com, via Ticketmaster charge-by-phone lines at (800)745-3000. Tickets are also available at STAPLES Center box office.

An amateur superstar who won 98 bouts over the course of a career that saw her earn National Golden Gloves and Junior Olympics titles, Kaliesha "Wild Wild" West (12-1-2, 3 KO's) has been boxing since the age of ten and at just 22 years old, she is knocking on the door of a world title. Unbeaten for nearly two years, West is coming off a fifth round TKO of Vannessa Guimaraes in June and she's ready for the biggest fight of her career at STAPLES Center on September 18.

Though she doesn't own the same amount of amateur accolades as her opponent, South Carolina's Angel "Non-Stop" Gladney (6-2-1, 5 KO's) certainly has the same determination to win the Bantamweight World Title this September. A pro since 2009, Gladney has shown amazing power thus far, and with all five of her knockout wins coming in the first round, expect fireworks early when these two bantamweights collide.

SEPTEMBER 15TH LAS VEGAS HILTON FIGHT CARD

FEATURES TWO WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP BOUTS

NEWPORT BEACH, CA (September 2, 2010) – It’s the biggest celebration in the history of Mexico, and on Wednesday, September 15th, at the Las Vegas Hilton, the Mexican Bicentennial will bear witness to some fistic fireworks, as Roy Englebrecht Promotions, in association with Promociones del Pueblo and Corona Extra, presents a world championship doubleheader in The Theater at the Las Vegas Hilton that will air live to all of Mexico and Latin America via Televisa, as well as on Pay Per View in the United States

The world championship will be distributed by Integrated Sports Media for live viewing at 10 PM/ET – 10 PM/ET, 7 PM/PT on both cable and satellite pay-per-view for a suggested retail price of only $24.95.

In the main event, scheduled for 12 rounds, the IBO featherweight title is on the line when Australia’s Jackson Asiku defends his belt against Mexican star and former world champion Jhonny Gonzalez, and in the co-featured bout of the evening, also scheduled for 12 rounds, Mexico City’s Juan Carlos Salgado squares off against Michigan’s Tyrone Harris for the vacant IBO super featherweight crown.

But that’s not all, as this action-packed six bout card also features a 10 round IBO junior super featherweight title bout that pits Ciudad Juarez’s Miguel Roman (30-7-22Kos) who has agreed to fight Las Vegas top prospect Lonnie Smith (11-2-8Kos).

For tickets, priced from $25 to $75, please visit the Las Vegas Hilton Box Office, or www.vegas.com. Doors open at 6:00pm and the first bell rings at 6:30pm PST. The Televisa and PPV broadcast begins at 7:00pm.

A native of Uganda, “Action” Jackson Asiku (26-3, 14 KOs) has soared to the top of the boxing world thanks to an exciting style and an unyielding will to win. A 2000 Olympian for Uganda, Asiku liked Australia so much that he made it his new home, and he hasn’t looked back yet. Winner of 15 straight fights, Asiku won the IBO title last November with an eighth round knockout of Heriberto Ruiz, and he’s looking to score another big win on September 15th.

The pride of Mexico City, 28-year old Jhonny Gonzalez (45-7, 39 KOs) has won a place in the heart of all fight fans with his knockout power, and nearly five years after winning the WBO bantamweight title, he looks to be better than ever. A devastating puncher with both hands, Gonzalez has won five in a row, all by knockout, with only one opponent making it past the second round. With his country behind him, Gonzalez is eager to add another title belt to his trophy case.

25-year old Mexico City native Juan Carlos Salgado (22-1-1, 16 KOs) quietly plied his trade for the first six years of his career, building an impressive record along the way. But when he destroyed 27-0 Jorge Linares in just 73 seconds for the WBA super featherweight crown, the entire world knew who he was. Salgado would lose the belt in a hard-fought 12 rounder against Takashi Uchiyama in January, but after bouncing back with a TKO of Guadalupe Rosales in June, he’s ready for another title shot.

Former world title challenger Tyrone “Fist of Fury” Harris (24-6-16KOS) out of Lansing, Michigan gave Stevie Johnston all he could handle, losing a majority decision for the IBA World Lightweight Title, and now he want this IBO belt. 29 year old Harris has a big win over 30-5 Damian Fuller for the USBA Lightweight title, so you can be sure that with these two sluggers already knocking out 32 opponents a war is brewing at the Hilton on September 15th, so who will be up for the challenge.

In televised undercard action, former Miami Hurricanes football star Quadtrine Hill (1-0, 1 KOs) looks for his second pro win in a heavyweight four rounder against Oakland’s 3-4 Yohan Banks.

Plus, Las Vegas lightweight Renell Griffin (6-2, 2 KOs) takes on Khadaphi Proctor (5-5) of Hesperia, California, in a four rounder.

Tickets priced at $25, $40, and $75 are available at the Las Vegas Hilton Box Office 9am – 7pm daily, and at www.lvhilton.com and www.vegas.com.

Doors open at 6pm on September 15th, with first undercard bout set for 6:30pm.

Mexican Independence Day extravaganza Sept. 11 in Mexico City

HOBOKEN, N.J. (Sept. 1, 2010) – Scotsman Willie “Hands of Steel” Limond, WBU Lightweight Champion, will be a plaid matador to Mexican bull -- 5-time world champion in three different weight classes, Erik “Terrible” Morales -- in their September 11 showdown that headlines the “Mexican Fiesta” Pay-Per-View show live from Mexico City.

“”I know this is going to be a hard fight,” Limond said, “but I’m hoping to take the bull by the horns and put on a great performance for the fans in Mexico, USA and my Scottish fans back home.”

Limond (33-2, 8 KOs) will be fighting for the first time outside of the United Kingdom against living legend Morales (49-6, 34 KOs), rated No. 2 by the World Boxing Council, in an outdoor bull ring, Plazo de Toros, which is being set-up to seat 54,000 for “Mexican Fiesta.” Morales, who is the last to defeat the great Manny Pacquiao, will be shooting for his 50th career win in the 12-round main event.

“Fighting Morales anywhere is a hard fight but to fight him on Mexican Independence Day makes it even harder,” Limond noted. “The man is one of my heroes. It will be an honor to share the ring with him and I’m hoping I can spoil the party.

“He has tons of experience, more knockouts than I have fights, and he is still a very dangerous fighter. If I were to win this fight it would be the highlight of my career and I think it could open major doors for big fights.”

“Mexican Fiesta,” presented by Grupo Empresarial Matiz, is being distributed in the United States by Integrated Sports Media for live viewing at 9 PM/ET – 6 PM/PT on both cable and satellite pay-per-view for a suggested retail price of only $29.95.

Limond nearly had his breakthrough fight in 2007, when he floored Olympic silver medallist Amir Khan, but Willie was unable to continue the fight after eight rounds, in which Khan took Limond’s British Empire belt. Limond has won his last five fights since losing to Khan.

“I have quite a fan-base in Scotland,” he added, “so a victory would be a massive thing for the Scots. I think it would go down in Scottish history as a great win for a Scottish fighter.”

Former WBC Light Flyweight Champion Edgar Sosa (39-6, 23 KOs) challenges WBC International Flyweight Champion Ryan Bito (18-6-3, 6 KOs), representing the Philapines, in the 12-round co-feature on the “Mexican Fiesta” PPV card..

In a female super flyweight battle of champions, WBC titlist Ann Marie “La Guerrera” Torres (21-3-2, 13 KOs), of Mexico, defends her belt against WIBF and GBU champion Alesia “The Tigress” Graf (25-1, 9 KOs), of Germany, in a 10-round title bout.

Other exciting bouts will be shown, pending time availability, on the “Mexican Fiesta” PPV show.

(For immediate release) August 29, 2010, Montreal – After a successfully conquering Quebec city on August 7 in front of a sold out crowd for Ringside: Invasion, Ringside MMA will be back in Montreal on November 13th at the Centre Pierre-Charbonneau for our next event: Payback! Jonathan “Road Warrior” Goulet will be competing in his 35th professional MMA fight by headlining an event for a 2nd straight time. Goulet (23-11-0), who has long been in the shadow of teammate Georges St-Pierre, both at home and on the international scene, has also yet to challenge for the opportunity of a title shot. Ringside is pleased to announce that he will finally have that chance, as he will take on none other than Chris Clements (6-4-0) for the vacant welterweight title in a 5 round championship match at 170 pounds.

Representing the world renowned Trigym Gym in Montreal, Jonathan Goulet is coming off an impressive 1st round TKO victory over Canadian prospect Matt MacGrath in his first fight for Ringside. Goulet was coming off a loss at the hands of Marcus Davis in May at UFC 113 in Montreal, which was his first fight in over 2 years due to an injury. This loss signalled the end of his UFC contract, as he was let go by the American promotion. The Victoriaville native stayed positive, and has decided to refocus his career by making it his mission to accumulate championship titles. Preferring to seize the opportunity rather than be mired in self-pity, Goulet has bounced back with a vengeance to quickly become Ringside MMA’s top contender for the welterweight title.

Despite his limited experience in professional MMA fights, IFL veteran Chris Clements represents a major threat for Jonathan Goulet, due to his innate talent for striking. Known for his ability to end fights quickly through his explosive TKOs, this professional MMA fighter from Adrenaline MMA in London, Ontario (Team Tompkins), will have the continued benefit of training with the likes of Mark Homonick, Sam Stout and Chris Horodecki. Clements has already fought 6 times in Quebec, and his built a very strong fan base in the province.

This matchup will no doubt cause some divisions amongst the Quebec fight fans who have grown to support this group of Team Tompkins based fighters who have fought in Quebec over the last 7 years. Their support should still be strong in number despite the implication of local favourite Jonathan Goulet.

In the co-main event of the night, rising star Alex Garcia (4-0-0), who has kept his record perfect intact through his first four professional fights, will be facing the toughest challenge of his young career when he takes on veteran Tyler « TNT » Jackson (9-6-1) from the Revolution Fight Time out of Langley, BC. Jackson has already faced the likes of Samuel Guillet, Martin Grandmont and Sam Stout, and he was the first to put a blemish the record of then undefeated Derek Gauthier in January 2010.

Derek Gauthier (6-2-0) is looking to get back into the win column, after most recently sending shockwaves of concern through the crowd as a result of a brutal KO loss during Ringside: No Escape, at the hands of veteran Dustin Poirier. His opponent for Payback has yet to be determined.

Making his fourth professional fight will be Christopher « The Tank » Boisvert (2-1) from Team Bergeron who will face the Albertan Lenny Wheeler (3-1-0). Boisvert, a native of Drummondville, delivered one of his best performances in a grudge match against rival Kevin Morin on June 18th – No Escape, which negated his disqualification loss from their first encounter. On November 13th, one of Quebec’s best prospects will look to represent his province when he takes on one of the best of Western Canada in Wheeler. For his part, Wheeler rattled off three consecutive wins to start his career, but is coming off an arm bar submission loss to Josh Machan. With all of their victories being earned through striking, the fans can expect a stand up war between these two fighters.

The rest of the fight card is littered with rising stars and prospects, including the undefeated Rejean Groulx (4-0-0) who will be challenged against a more experience Stephane Bernadel (6-2-0) from Ontario, Martin Trempe who is making his professional debut along with his opponent Steve Begin from Sherbrooke, Maxime Fecteau takes on the confident Tommy Cote(1-0-0), who recently won his first professional MMA fight on August 7th against Eric Daigno from Longueuil, who also happens to be on the card and facing Michael Pellerin, who is still looking for a win after two fights.
