Sources have informed Garden State Fight Scene that a card is in the works for early to mid October at the Convention Hall in Asbury Park. The word is that Middleweight prospect Peter "Kid Chocolate" Quillan 20-0 (15 KO's) of New York would headline. Quillan was noted by ESPN.Com's Dan Rafael as one of boxing's top prospects in 2008 but injuries have kept him out of the ring since September. Quillan was scheduled to top a Winky Wright promoted fight card last Wednesday in New York but due to unforseen circumstances, the card was canned.
Local favorites Chris Green, of Asbury Park, Bobby Rooney of Bayonne are both scheduled to appear on the card, assuming neither is injured during their respective bouts this Thursday at Schuetzen Park. Also slated to appear on the card is Cruiserweight Justin Ridgway of Colts Neck. Ridgway, 1-0, is a stablemate of top rated contender BJ Flores and would be making his first appearance in New Jersey.
More details will follow.
Great site man! Looking forward to October! Best of luck to Bobby and Chris this week.
