In a special edition of LA FIGHT CLUB at the Belasco Theater on Friday, September 18, Golden Boy Promotions will present an action-packed card featuring Puerto Rican phenom Jeffrey Fontanez (16-1, 12 KOs) and Mexican banger Marvin “Cachorro” Quintero (27-6, 23 KOs) in a 10-round lightweight main event. LA FIGHT CLUB will be broadcast live nationally on Estrella TV at 10:00 p.m. ET/7:00 p.m. PT, and for the first time will be live streamed on RingTVLive.com.
In the co-main event, scheduled for eight rounds in the super featherweight division, Los Angeles’ own Carlos “The Solution” Morales (11-1-3, 5 KOs) will put his nine-fight winning streak on the line against a yet-to-be-named opponent and opening up the telecast, fan favorite Angeleno Oscar Negrete (11-0, 3 KOs) will take on Jose “Hollywood” Estrella (14-7-1, 10 KOs) of Tijuana, Mexico, in an eight-round super bantamweight bout.
In non-televised bouts, local undefeated fighter Emilio Sanchez (9-0, 6 KOs) of Los Angeles will battle Juan Sandoval (7-16-1, 4 KOs) of San Bernardino, Calif. in a six-round super bantamweight bout, and D’Mitrius Ballard (9-0, 7 KOs) of Temple Hill, Maryland, will make his debut appearance at LA FIGHT CLUB in an eight-round super middleweight bout against a to-be-determined opponent.

As in September, I once again ran out of gas in the 10th & 11th championship rounds of October & November with this column, but I recovered to complete them and will unleash a few more flurries to close out the 12th and final round.
In the first week of October, Hassan N’Dam won a UD over Curtis Stevens in an eliminator for the right to challenge Jermaine Taylor who defeated aging Sam Soliman to regain the IBF Middleweight title. How Taylor even earned this title shot is another story altogether, but it is all irrelevant as he is now the champion. However he will not have too much time to savor his victory as he has assault and battery charges pending against him and an upcoming court fight that may turn out to be the toughest fight of his life, just when things started to look up for him in boxing, we wish him luck.
