On Saturday night, the 10-round main event will be contested for the vacant NBA Bantamweight World Title featuring seven-time national amateur champion, Dylan “The Real Dyl” Price (14-0, 10 KOs). Price, already the NBA Intercontinental titleholder from Philadelphia by way of Sicklerville, N.J., takes on a native of Glassboro, N.J., Drew “Cruel Intentions” Correll (10-2, 8 KOs).
Meanwhile, Tarique “Showtime” Green (1-0, 1 KO) looks to keep his record unblemished and a host of local stars make professional debuts on the six-bout card, including former Pennsylvania amateur champions Frankie Lynn of Chester, Pa., and Jalique “Duck, No Action” Holden of Wilmington, Del.
“This card is super exciting because we have Dylan Price and Drew Correll fighting for the vacant NBA Bantamweight title and for our fresh-start fighters, not one of them possesses a loss,” said David Price, ThD, of Price Promotions. “Even though several fighters are debut fighters no one wants their 0 to go, so on Saturday, July 16, we should see some truly determined fighters putting it all on the line.”
