On Friday, September 21, promoter Joseph Donofrio of Donofrio Boxing will return at the Meadow Brook Music Festival in Rochester Hills, Michigan.
 

Known for going the extra mile for fans, Donofrio’s latest event, entitled “Boxing Under the Stars”, will feature four professional bouts, as well as a special peek at local amateur stars of tomorrow to open the show. In the main event, Detroit’s own undefeated Lanardo “Pain Server” Tyner (16-0, 9 KOs) will face Guyana’s also

unbeaten Hugo “The Hurricane” Lewis (16-0-2, 12 KOs) in a rare showdown between up-and-coming prospects.

Tyner, a 31-year-old power puncher with a fan-friendly, all-action style will be in tough against Guyana’s Lewis. Lewis has already won the WBC CABOFE (Caribbean Boxing Federation) title and defended it successfully.

Also in 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, in just seven career fights, Garside has already beaten many of the top female fighters in the featherweight division.

Rounding out the professional portion of the exciting undercard will be Waterford, Michigan’s popular slugger “Pistol” Pete Cantu (10-6-1, 7 KOs) and “People’s Choice” cruiserweight Darryl Cunningham (6-1, 3 KOs).

Making a special appearance will be boxing’s legendary manager and subject of the Meg Ryan movie “Against the Ropes”, Jackie Kallen.
