(OCT 7) If 22 straight sellouts aren’t
enough to get you to the next Battle In The Ballroom pro boxing show
at the Irvine Marriott on Thursday, October 9th, promoter Roy
Englebrecht has come us with two historic reasons to be in
attendance, and they are both groundbreaking in the boxing history.
Besides the Main Event for the Battle In The Ballroom Championship
Belt, Englebrecht has announced that Avalon Anders, one of the early
Ring Card Girls to work at the Marriott shows, will be stepping into
the ring with her 19 year old daughter Amanda Stronegger, making
them boxing’s first ever Mother-Daughter Ring Card Girls! Anders was
a member of Playboy’s Swedish Ski Team in 1991 and was living in
Garden Grove when she started doing Ring Card Girl duties at the
Marriott. Amanda is currently pursuing a modeling and acting career.
“I remember Avalon having to get a baby sitter for Amanda when I
booked her at the Marriott,” stated Englebrecht. “She worked for me
for nearly 15 years and even was the Ring Card Girl on the Celebrity
Boxing shows on Fox. Now to have Avalon and Amanda in the same ring
is really having my business come full circle.”
Added to this great six bout card set for October 9th, will be
another first for the sport of boxing, when Ricky and Ana Tangaro
step into the ring to become the first ever husband and wife to
fight on the same fight card! Married for five years and training
out of the Coachella Boxing Club and trained by Lee Espinoza, they
will both be making their pro debuts but will not be fighting each
other. Ricky will meet Efren Lopez out of Bakersfield and Ana will
face 1-0 Michelle Nelson from Alberta, Canada.
The Fernando Quintero vs Luis Alberto Cervantes main event will be a
good one as both fighters can win their first ever championship
belt. Quintero out of Oxnard is undefeated at 5-0 and will get all
he wants from Cathedral City’s 7-2 Cervantes.
If you liked the two spectacular knockouts at the August 27th show,
ballroom matchmaker Arnold Berber is working on bringing both
Terrell Hendrix and Herman Scott who made big pro debuts with the KO
wins. Plus exciting flyweight Angel Magdelano meets Huntington
Parks’s Jose Pacheco.
