Pound 4 Pound Promotions' prize prospects Jeremy "Hollywood" Bryan and Glen Tapia each have new opponents for their April 17 bouts in AC.
Paterson's Bryan is taking a big step up in competition to take on once beaten New Yorker Vincent Aaroyo(9-1, 6 KO's) over eight rounds at Junior Welterweight. In last bout December 4 in Newark, Bryan, 13-0 6 KO's, demolished the experienced Darren Fallen.
Tapia, a junior middleweight fighting out of Passaic, also takes on his toughest opponent to date in North Carolina's James Winchester (10-3, 3 KO's). At 5-0 with 4 KO's, many locals believe Tapia has the most upside in the Pound 4 Pound stable. Winchester should definitely be a tough test, as he has never been knocked out, most recently going the distance will well regarded 2008 Olympian Matt Korobov.
Tapia and Winchester are scheduled to fight six rounds.
Both bouts are slated to take place prior to the Kelly Pavlik-Sergio Martinez middleweight title showdown.
