Las Vegas, NV:

Tickets priced at $300, $200, $100, $50 and $25, not including applicable tax and service fees, go on sale tomorrow, Wednesday, May 27 at 10 AM PT and will be available at all Las Vegas Ticketmaster locations (select Smith's Food and Drug Centers and Ritmo Latino).

The Russian Wrecking Ball - Sergey "Krusher" Kovalev - is headlining in the storied fight town for the first time. The charismatic and unbeaten knockout artist boasts three current world title belts, 2014 Fighter of the Year honors from numerous publications and an astounding 89% knockout-to-win ratio. After capping off his impressive 2014 campaign with a unanimous decision win over the legendary Bernard Hopkins to unify the WBA and IBF belts with his WBO belt, he began 2015 with a thrilling eighth round knockout of former world champion Jean Pascal in Montreal. The Krusher is on his way to becoming one of boxing's next big superstars.

Kovalev, the 32-year old from Chelyabinsk, Russia now residing in Fort Lauderdale, FL and Los Angeles, CA, said, "I am very excited to return to ring onJuly 25 and fight for Vegas fans. I love fighting on HBO and am happy for this next opportunity."

  

Egis Klimas, Kovalev's manager, added, "We are so happy to be back in the ring with HBO and Main Events' help. This show will be televised live on HBO. Another good thing is Sergey will be able to fight in mega boxing city Las Vegas and start building as his home base fighting town. Thanks to people at Mandalay Bay for giving this opportunity to us."

  

In the opposite corner, the IBF's number one contender, Nadjib "Irondjib" Mohammedi will challenge Kovalev with his awkward and aggressive style. He earned this title shot with an exciting win over Anatoliy Dudchenko by TKO in an IBF elimination contest in June of last year. Mohammedi elected to wait as Kovalev unified the belts with Hopkins then took a voluntary defense against Pascal while he added some serious fire power to his corner - world renowned trainer Abel Sanchez. Sanchez, who trains middleweight champion Gennady "GGG" Golovkin and previously worked with Kovalev.

  

Nadjib, 30, is from Gardanne, Bouches-du-Rhone, France and trains in Big Bear Lake, California. He will be making his Las Vegas and HBO debuts. When asked about his mandatory fight with Kovalev, he said, "My turn has come to show the world who I am. I let this Kovalev beat some guys but now I will show you he ain't no Krusher. I am smarter. I am faster. I am the next generation of light heavyweight real champions!"

  

Main Events CEO Kathy Duva, who promotes both pugilists, said, "This will be a great fight. Sergey had a little trouble with Jean Pascal's awkward, aggressive style in March. Nadjib will bring a similar style to the ring on July 25th. He also has Abel Sanchez in his corner, who might have some inside knowledge about Kovalev. The Krusher will try to do what he does best - Krush him. We know for sure that this will be an all-action night at Mandalay Bay, where Main Events is very happy to return."

  

"Fans who appreciate underdogs, respect Sergey Kovalev," said Peter Nelson, Vice President, programming, HBO Sports. "As an amateur and professional, the unified light heavyweight champ has spent his entire life as an underdog, beating the odds as he does his ring opponents: with total domination. Now a new underdog, Nadjib Mohammedi, seeks to shock the boxing world and dethrone the light heavyweight king. July 25 in Las Vegas will be a great event."

  

"This light heavyweight fight at Mandalay Bay will be a sensational matchup," said Richard Sturm, President of Entertainment and Sports for MGM Resorts International. "We look forward to working with Kathy and her entire Main Eventsteam as well as Peter Nelson and his HBO staff on this championship event."

  

Undercard information will be announced shortly.

Friends become foes as Rebello, King lock horns -Heavyweight standouts share the spotlight Friday on main card of CES MMA XXIXt

PROVIDENCE HEAVYWEIGHT GREG Rebello, right, seen here in a win over Chris Guillen in 2012, returns to face Tyler King of Massachusetts on Friday, June 12th, 2015 on the main card of "CES MMA XXIX" at Twin River Casino in Lincoln, R.I. Two of the top heavyweights in the northeast, Rebello and King will battle on the AXS TV spotlight as part of CES MMA's nationally-televised event

 -- Greg Rebello knows better than to drown in all the pre-fight hype.

 

"It's 15 minutes of your life. That's it," he said, casually dismissing the buzzwords typically reserved for fights of this magnitude.

 

"It's a 15-minute fistfight. After that, we'll be drinking beers at the bar."

 

The second stint of Rebello's comeback, which began only six months after the 32-year-old Providence native retired in June of 2013, has finally come to this, another national TV showcase and a heavyweight showdown with Massachusetts vet Tyler King on the main card of "CES MMA XXIX" Friday, June 12th, 2015 at Twin River Casino.

 

Few heavyweights in this region have been this good for this long. A former college and pro football player, the 35-year-old King is 9-2 after beating Mike Mucitelli on short notice in March, also on AXS TV, while Rebello ran his record to 17-6 following a win overJ.A. Dudley in October. With both fighters having trained with one another through the years, developing a friendship while each climbing the ladder at their own pace, they figured this day would come.

 

"It was only a matter of time," Rebello said. "Someone will go to the top and someone will go back into the mix. I want to go higher up that ladder, and in order to do so I have to fight guys like this. I'm cool with that."

 

"I have tremendous respect for Greg," added King, "but this is business. It's a job. It's what we get paid to do. I'm trying to take his head off and he's trying to take my head off. It is what it is. We both love to do this.

 

"If I didn't come in and try to take his head off, it'd be disrespectful to him."

 

Rebello (17-6, 9 KOs) has experience and a killer Muay Thai repertoire on his side. The brutality of the head kick he administered on Cody Lightfoot in 2011 remains entrenched in the memories of New England fans. Some would swear the bloodstains on the canvas haven't faded either, perhaps a warning for anyone who dares to get within striking distance.

 

"He's a junkyard dog, a real tough prick," King said. "It won't be easy to put away a guy like that."

 

King is more of a wrestler than a striker, a hulking, 6-foot-5, 223-pound former lineman who would stand to benefit from keeping his opponent on the canvas, thereby neutralizing Rebello's ability to end the fight with one blow.

 

As he contemplates his strategy, remaining focused on the task at hand rather than what lies ahead, Rebello admits his chief concernFriday is "not getting laid on." Though not aesthetically pleasing, the "lay and pray" approach worked swimmingly for Mike Stewart and Lewis Rumsey, each of whom mauled Rebello when faced with the task of defending a prestigious Muay Thai striker.

 

Those fights left Rebello at a crossroads, physically and emotionally drained from raising his infant daughter and not being able to put all his efforts into training. With his daughter approaching her third birthday, Rebello can finally balance fighting and fatherhood. This, he says, is the best he's felt in years.

 

"I've trained more for this fight than I have for any other camp over the past three years," he said. "Life's gotten a lot easier. Now my daughter comes to the gym with me and jumps in the ring. She loves it.

 

"I'm in unbelievable shape," he continued. "I don't get injured. My body doesn't have the wear and tear of someone in their mid-20s. I've never been hurt. I've never torn an ACL. I train smart. I've cut my sparring days in half. I do a lot more technique work and working on my standup. One day a week, we go at it, then the rest is all technical stuff. I recover a lot faster. I train hard, but I train smart, too."

 

This may be "just another fight," as King put it, but the muddled chain of command in New England's heavyweight division rests on the outcome of Friday's long-awaited showdown. Two friends sharing the spotlight, and perhaps a post-fight beverage when all is said and done, makes for must-see TV.

 

"I've never had an easy fight, and this goes along with that theme," King said. "I feel awesome. I'm coming into this fight feeling amazing.

 

"Greg has set a standard in New England for a long time. I'm aware of that. But everyone I face is just an opponent in my way. I need to be aware of what he does and what he's capable of."

 

Tickets for "CES MMA XXIX" are priced at $40.00, $55.00, $100.00 and $125.00 and available for purchase online atwww.cesmma.com or www.twinriver.com, by phone at 401-724-2253/2254 or at the Twin River Players Club. All fights and fighters are subject to change.

Main Events Strengthens Stable with Signing of Two New England Locals: Middleweight Thomas Falowo and Heavyweight Prospect Cassius Chaney

Main Events Strengthens Stable with Signing of Two New England Locals: Middleweight Thomas Falowo and Heavyweight Prospect Cassius Chaney

Totowa, NJ:

Main Events adds two new fighters to their already impressive stable with the signing of two New England prospects: middleweight Thomas "The Souljah" Falowo (13-3, 8 KOs) of Providence, Rhode Island and heavyweight Cassius Chaney (1-0, 1 KO) of New Haven, Connecticut.  

 

 

Falowo, 26, is coming off an impressive win over his long-time amateur rival, Russell Lamour, on ESPN Friday Night Fights on January 30 at Foxwoods in Connecticut. The two met several times as amateurs with Lamour winning all but one match-up but, in their first fight as pros, Falowo took the victory in an exciting unanimous decision.

The Souljah made his professional debut in 2010 with a second round stoppage of Odias Dumezil after which he stopped his next three opponents and won his first six professional bouts. Prior to his win over Lamour, Falowo suffered defeat at the hands of former amateur standout Ronald Gavril on Showtime. Notably, two of Falowo's three career losses have come at the hands of undefeated fighters.

Chaney, 27, made an impressive professional debut in his adopted home state of Connecticut on Friday, April 17 at Mohegan Sun with a second round stoppage of Perry Filkins of New Hampshire. Cassius is originally from Baltimore, Maryland but he moved to Connecticut where he earned a Sport Management degree and played basketball as a student at the University of New Haven. He has made Connecticut his home ever since.

Both fighters and their camps are very excited to work with Main Events. Falowo said, "I am very grateful for the opportunity to work with such a great promotional company. I am ready to do great things. This is the beginning to a long and successful career and I am looking forward to working with Main Events."

 

Michael Criscio, his manager, added, "I think that Thomas is a great fit for a great promoter like Main Events, Thomas has never been in this kind of a situation before. He will now have the opportunity to fight all over the world whereas, before he was stuck on the East Coast, with no chance of getting on TV."

The sentiment from the Chaney camp was similar. He said, "I am very excited to work with Main Events. This is a great opportunity for me and I cannot wait for the things to come."  

 

Chaney is co-managed by Allen Hadelman and Jake Piekarski. Hadelman said, "Cassius is special. He has all the tools to become a world champ. He is dedicated, smart, athletic and is only going to get better." Piekarski added, "We think Cassius is a very promising young fighter with a great work ethic and unlimited potential. We are very excited to have signed a promotional deal with a top tier organization like Main Events and look forward to working together for years to come!"

 

Both fighters are trained by Peter Manfredo. When asked about Falowo, Manfredo said, "Thomas has been totally dedicated to his craft from the first day he walked into the gym at age 14. He continues to strive for that championship status and signing with Main Events is the vehicle to take him there." When asked about Chaney, he added, "Cassius Chaney is a skilled, athletic, determined heavyweight who in just two and a half years with me won the amateur national championship twice. He is a diamond in the rough. With Kathy Duva and the expertise of Main Events this boxer can make it to world championship status."

 

Main Events CEO Kathy Duva said, "Thomas Falowo and Cassius Chaney are exciting additions to our roster. I look forward to seeing them in great fights in packed New England venues, while we work together to build them into the champions I know they can be."
