(SEPT 20) The press conference/weigh-in
for promoter Joseph Donofrio's "Boxing Under the Stars" event will
be held at the Wingate by Wyndham Hotel at 6:00 pm today, Sept. 20.
The Wingate by Wyndham Hotel is located at 2200 Featherstone Road in
Auburn Hills, Michigan (tel: 248.334.3324). All fighters will be
available for interviews and photos.
The following night, the "Boxing Under the Stars" event will be held
at 7:30 p.m. at Meadow Brook Music Festival, located on the campus
of Oakland University (off Walton Boulevard and Adams Road). It is
accessible from I-75 at University Drive (exit 79) and from M-59 at
Adams Road.
Known for going the extra mile for fans, Donofrio's "Boxing Under
the Stars," will feature four professional bouts, as well as a
special peek at local amateur "stars of tomorrow."
In the main event, Detroit's own undefeated Lanardo "Pain Server"
Tyner (16-0, 9 KOs) will face slick Tennessee veteran Marteze Logan.
While Tyner is known for his pulverizing punching power, Logan has
faced a long list of the world's toughest fighters and always proves
a stern test. Only the best get past "Too Sweet" Logan.
Also doing battle that night will be Windsor, Ontario's undefeated
female world champion Jeannine Garside (6-0-1, 2 KOs). A superstar
in the making, having just seven career fights, Garside has already
beaten many of the top female fighters in the featherweight
division. However, fellow undefeated fighter Booke Dierdorff is
coming to Michigan with pulling an upset on her mind.
Rounding out the professional portion of the exciting undercard will
be Waterford, Michigan's popular slugger "Pistol" Pete Cantu
(10-6-1, 7 KOs) taking on Grand Rapids native Reggie "Two Guns" Nash
and "People's Choice" cruiserweight Darryl Cunningham (6-1, 3 KOs)
against Tennessee spoiler Edgar King.
