GUERRERO TO FIGHT AGAIN IN SALISBURY



In their very last Press Conference in the old Main Street Gym, Trainer Hal Chernoff and undefeated Boxer Fernando Guerrero announced their next fight at the Wicomico County Youth & Civic Center on June 19th.

This event will not be shown on ESPN or Showtime. Instead, Fernando Guerrero will be the Main Event of the night along with 6 other bouts. Tickets will start at $15.00 and go up to $100.00. We're told they will go on sale this coming Monday and more so than ever before, I believe tickets will be sold much faster because you can't sit at home and watch the fights on TV.

Other fighters so far on the card will be Mark Davis who is 12-0 with 4 KO's, Shawn Porter, 7-0 with 6 KO's. Farah Ennis, 10-0 with 5 KO's and Dominic Wade, 2-0 with 2 KO's.

Fernando Guerrero deserves to be the Main Event and he has earned it. No doubt, mark your calendars and get your tickets early because this will be another Sell Out. They could have taken this fight to another state with ESPN but Hal & Fernando want to keep it right here at home. Let's show our support and drive ESPN & Showtime desperate to want Fernando as their main event from here on out. In the very least, we'll be able to watch this young man grow and when it comes time for a Title Fight, guess what, there's a great chance it will be right here in Salisbury Maryland.

Damn, I think it's the same night that I'm going to the Globe Theater in Berlin to see legendary bluesman guitarist Roy Book Binder, June 19th. Waiting for a reply about tickets. I may be able to make it back for the main event. Roy's in his mid sixty's now, got to see him while I can.

Another great guitarist is coming to the Avalon in Easton this summer, Laurence Juber used to be the lead guitarist for Paul McCartney's Wings band and now does a classical style acoustic show of old classics. Check him out on You Tube, he's great!

Both venues hold less than 150 people so it makes for an intimate show. I've sat with Roy and chatted on a couple of occasions, we sat at one of the tables on the sidewalk outside the Globe last summer.

Sorry if this post offended anyone when I posted it this morning under the wrong topic.

Has the fight date been set? Delmarvanow had a date of June 19th this morning, I just looked and they seemed to have pulled the story? I'd like to see both.

I think Danny Jacobs would be a great opponet this time around
