Apparently, Main Events matchmakers, Russell Peltz and Jolene Mizzone, have had their work cut out for them trying to match up the former Olympic standout. It seems Ali has struck fear in the hearts of most of the local welterwieght boxers. Mizzone said, "It's ridiculous, you would think his first name was Muhammad!" Perez, who in his last fight scored a unanimous decision over Alexis Cintron, says he has no problem taking on Ali.
The rest of the undercard promises to live up to the benchmark set by the Main Events Brick City Boxing Series, and to continue thrilling local and true boxing fans
New Jersey fighters on the card include Vinny O'Brien of Hanover, Newark's Shakir Dunn, Jersey City native Jose Peralta, Irvington based Rafael Lora.
