(OCT 31) PROVIDENCE - Many of New England's best and most popular fighters will be in action November 23 as Big Six Entertainment presents, "Royale Rumble,' on a special Saturday afternoon card (special 5 p.m. ET start) at The Royale Nightclub Boston (formerly The Roxy).

In some female boxing action: Aleksandra Magdziak Lopes (10-2, 1 KO) and "Notorious" Nicole Woods (11-2-2, 3 KOs), from Stone Mountain, Georgia, will square-off in a six-round fight in the welterweight division. Lopes is a fan favorite from Marshfield (MA) by way of Poland.

"Big Six Entertainment will be closing out a very successful 2013 with our best top-to-bottom card of the year," Big Six Entertainment president Artie DePinho said. "We're also thrilled to be returning to our Boston home at The Royale Nightclub. Popular veterans, promising prospects and everything in between will be showcased in front of the great Boston fight fans."

The six-round main event features one of the most popular fighters in New England, Lowell (MA) light heavyweight Joey McCreedy against Nigeria-native Dennis Ogboo, who fights out of Lexington, Kentucky.
