This event is presented by Hennessy Sports in association with Interbox and United Promotions. “We’re very happy that some of the top Canadian boxers will be showcased to American boxing fans on FIGHT NOW TV,” promoter Adam Harris (Hennessy Sports) commented.”Also fighting on this great card is undefeated Buffalo light heavyweight prospect Lionell “Lonnie B’ Thompson (9-0, 6 KOs), who was a decorated U.S. amateur boxer. It’s going to be an entertaining evening of boxing.” A replay of the live event will air Monday, Oct. 24th at 10 PM/ET, as part of FIGHT NOW TV’s “Every Night a different FIGHT” slot.
