club show back to Times Square
Boxing Insider Promotions to bring upscale pro boxing club show back to Times Square
Unsung 16-0 Tennessee welterweight Avious Griffin to headline, plus 18-1-1 heavyweight George Arias in the co-feature
Streaming live on DAZN from Sony Hall
NEW YORK CITY (February 5, 2024)—Boxing Insider Promotions has become known in boxing circles during the past two years for hosting competitive, entertaining club shows. That trending brand continues on February 20th, once again, in historic Times Square.
All the action will be streamed on DAZN and on www.boxinginsider.com live from Sony Hall’s intimate surroundings for another special evening of professional boxing on Broadway.
New York City’s only club show boxing returns with action-packed fights featuring some of the area’s best prospects.
The 10-round main event pits one of boxing’s best-kept secrets, unsung Tennessee welterweight Avious Griffin (16-0, 15 KOs), versus Jose Luis “Guerro” Sanchez (14-4, 4 KOs) for the vacant WBC USA Welterweight title. Griffin has stopped all but one of his 16 opponents to date, and he’s riding a 9-fight KO streak into the ring to take on Sanchez.
A 10-round Special Heavyweight Attraction, co-promoted by DiBella Entertainment, showcases Dominican Republic-native “Gentleman” George Arias (18-1-1, 7 KOs), fighting out of The Bronx, against an opponent to be determined.
“New York City is experiencing a boxing resurgence with a string of some of the biggest events in the sport,” promoter Larry Goldberg said. “The big shows need club-level shows to develop the next generation of talent. We offer an opportunity for local fighters to fight and stay independent.
“I am very excited to feature four of New York City’s top prospects, including one of the city’s best heavyweights (George Arias), and Avious in his first title match.”
Three Brooklyn lightweight prospects are also fighting on the Feb. 20th show at Sony Hall in three separate four-round bouts: Koby Khalil Williams (4-0, 3 KOs) vs. TBA, lightweight Jason Castanon (1-1, 1 KO) vs. Stephen Barbee (0-2), and Elijah Gonzalez (1-0, 1 KO).
The card is subject to change.
Doors open at 6:30 p.m. ET, with the first bout at 7:30 p.m. ET.
