Tonight at 8:15 pm ET streaming live on the Dropkick Murphys Facebook page, there will be live fights from Melrose, Mass., with junior middleweights Greg Vendetti and Alan Zavala meeting in the 10-round main event.
Vendetti (20-3-1, 12 KO) is coming off of a second round TKO loss in France to Michel Soro, which came in December, a few months after he beat Yoshihiro Kamegai by decision. The 28-year-old looks to get back on track fighting close to home.
Zavala (15-3, 13 KO) is a 25-year-old fighter from Tijuana who was knocked out in the first round by prospect Travell Mazion in his last outing on Sept. 29.
The card will also feature the return of local favorite Ryan Kielczewski (29-4, 11 KO), who will face Nick Otieno (31-15, 13 KO) in an eight-round lightweight fight. Otieno is really a super bantamweight at best, but here we are.
The rest of the card:
- Mike O’Han Jr (8-0, 5 KO) vs Shakha Moore (12-23-3, 2 KO), welterweights, 6 rounds
- Luis Arcon-Diaz (5-0, 5 KO) vs Zack Ramsey (8-6, 4 KO), junior welterweights, 6 rounds
- Craig O’Brien (9-1, 1 KO) vs Antonio Chaves Fernandez (9-35-4, 3 KO), middleweights, 6 rounds
- James Perella (1-0, 1 KO) vs Andre Belcarris (0-5, 0 KO), welterweights, 6 rounds
- Joe Gagliardi Jr (1-0, 0 KO) vs Francisco Artri Neto (0-3, 0 KO), cruiserweights, 4 rounds
- Joe Farina (5-1, 3 KO) vs Carlos Galindo (1-8, 0 KO), welterweights, 4 rounds
