Press Release

“New Year, New Stars” in Yonkers
O’Shea Brothers
Boxing Jan. 15

YONKERS, N.Y. (Dec.
28, 2009) – O’Shea Bros. Boxing Promotions kicks-off its 2010 schedule January
15, featuring many of New York’s top young fighters in action on the “New Year,
New Stars” pro boxing card, at the Yonkers PAL Gym.

“Our goal is to bring
old-school boxing back to the fans,” promoter Brian O’Shea explained. “We have
some of the best young local fighters on this card in real fights. We don’t want
protected fighters trying to build-up their records. Some guys are stepping up
in terms of the level of talent they’re in the ring with and those just starting
their pro careers are fighting opponents of equal talent, from rival or even the
same neighborhoods in some cases,
just like in the old days.”

The 8-round main
event pits Bronx welterweight Jose
Angel “Silver Boy” Rodriguez
(14-1-1, 2 KOs) against battled-tested veteran David Toribio (16-12, 10 KOs), who has
proven to be an upset specialist having beaten previously unbeaten prospects
(11-0) Juan Camilio Novoa (TKO1) and (14-0-2) Ishmail Arvin (DEC8). Toribio has
also been in against the likes of James Kirkland, Oscar Diaz, Daniel Edouard and
Marco Antonio Rubio, among the more notables.

The 6-round
co-feature showcases undefeated African welterweight Issouf Kinda (6-0, 3 KOs), now
fighting
out of Harlem, versus dangerous Dominican slugger Franklin Gonzalez (13-3, 10
KOs).

On the undercard in
4-round bouts are Bronx bantamweight Raul Lopez (1-0, 1 KO) vs. Alex Nonte (1-0, 0
KOs), New Rochelle
super flyweight Jose “Chilli” Rivera (1-0, 0 KOs) vs. pro debuting Miguel Diaz,
Bronx featherweight Nydia Feliciano (1-0-1, 0 KOs) vs. pro
debuting Norma Faris, 2-time New
York Golden Gloves champion Adam
Kownacki (1-0, 1 KO), fighting out of the Greenpoint section of Brooklyn,
vs. Bronx heavyweight Abdighano
Bousman in his pro debut; Manhattan super featherweights Takeshi Sato (0-1) and
Jonathan Cuba (1-1, 1 KO), Yonkers
hometown favorite Chazz McDowell
makes his pro debut against Bronx featherweight Alex Cooper
(0-2).

All fights and
fighters are subject to change.
