SMITHER-ALEKOZAI CANADIAN TITLE: OCT. 19 IN TORONTO

The Canadian Super Lightweight Championship between ‘Marvellous’ Mark Smither (12-1) and Helmand ‘Savage Prince’ Alekozai (14-0, 6 KO) headlines United Boxing Promotions’ Oct. 19th event at Great Canadian Casino Resort Toronto.

“The Smither-Alekozai fight has generated so much buzz, it’s something Toronto fans have wanted for years and this is the platform it deserves,” said United president Tyler Buxton. “Both being Ontario guys, with a significant history in the amateur ranks — this is the kind of fight that can define a fighter’s legacy.”

Jamaican heavyweight sensation Ricardo ‘Big 12’ Brown (11-0, 11 KO) and undefeated Brampton super welterweight Joshua ‘HellRazor’ Frazer (10-0, 7 KO) will also put their zeroes on the line against to-be-announced opposition.

Korean lightweight Gisu ‘Terminator’ Lee (11-4, 4 KO) faces a step-up in competition against tough Mexican Alfredo ‘Duro’ Espino (6-2-1, 2 KO); Lee enters on an electrifying three-fight knockout streak, while Espino is a proven entity who has earned results as a road fighter before.

“This is a test for Gisu, Espino is a guy who’s fought in Canada and performed well before,” said Buxton. “Both guys have dreams of getting ranked, but only one is going to continue their upward trajectory on October 19th. Korea versus Mexico!”

Filipino-Canadian featherweight Michael ‘Machine Gun’ Cabato (5-0-1, 2 KO) will face veteran Mexican Jonatan Lecona Ramos in a six-round contest.

Mayron ‘Brazilian Bomber’ Zeferino (6-1, 2 KO) will make his much-anticipated return to the professional ring in a four-round contest against Jamaican veteran Gregory Miller.
