Broadway Boxing Returns December 1st


On Wednesday, December 1, Lou Dibella's Broadway Boxing series returns to the famed B.B. Kings Blues Club in Manhattan with another entertaining card.

In the main event, junior welterweight prospect Gabriel "Tito" Bracero (12-0, 1 KO) battles Hector "The Mongoose" Alatore, 29, (16-11, 5 KO's) in an eight round bout. Bracero, 29, will be making his 6th career appearance at B.B. Kings, and 3rd in a row. Bracero, a slick boxer, scored an eight-round, unanimous decision victory over Terry Buterbaugh in his last fight. 

In a clash of unbeaten super featherweights, Javier Fortuna (12-0, 9 KO's) squares off against Victor Valenzuela (8-0, 1 KO) in the co-main event. Four of Fortuna's last six fights have ended by a technical knockout. Just 20-years-old, Fortuna will be making his U.S. debut. Valenzuela, who resides in nearby Passaic, N.J., is looking to use his smooth boxing skills to score an upset. The bout is scheduled for eight rounds.

Also, Sonya Lamonakis (2-0, 1 KO) takes on Tiffany Woodard (3-3, 2 KO's) in a six-round, heavyweight contest. Lamonakis, a 35-year-old school teacher, won her last fight by a four-round, unanimous decision, which was a complete slugfest from the opening bell at B.B. Kings versus Alysia Williams-Stevenson.

In addition, the card will feature New York's heavyweight prospect Tor Hamer (12-1, 9 KO's), undefeated Jersey City, N.J. welterweight Alex Perez (12-0, 7 KO's), unbeaten Bronx, N.Y. junior middleweight sensation Steven Martinez (6-0, 6 KO's) and Brooklyn's lightning-quick, junior middleweight Delen Parsley, Jr. (3-0, 2 KO's) against opponents to be announced.
