“Premiere Boxing Champions brings boxing back to the Windy City”
By Zo Crooks
Chicago, IL (April 14, 2015)– From 1957 to 1961 Chicago Stadium played host to boxing legends Sugar Ray Robinson, Jack Dempsey, and Floyd Patterson. “Since the early 1960s, boxing in the city has been basically a club sport, with fight cards featuring local boxers holding matches in hotels, many promoted by former heavyweight champion Ernie Terrell (a product of the West Side).” Premiere Boxing Champions looks to bring great boxing back to the Windy City!
In a little over a week PBC will premiere WBC Super Middleweight Champion Anthony Dirrell (27-0-1, 22 KOs) and his unbeaten record against Badou Jack (18-1-1, 12 KOs) on April 25th at the UIC Pavilion, in Chicago, Illinois, USA. This is Dirrell’s first title defense of his WBC belt that he won off of former WBC champion SakioBika last year. Jack has some tools in his arsenal to make this an interesting fight. It should be a good fight considering the fact that Dirrell is coming off a great championship performance against Bika and Jack is following up his only loss to hard punching Derek Edwards with 2 impressive victories against Francisco Sierra and Jason Escalera.
Also that night in a second bout the PBC premieres “regular” WBA Middleweight Champion Daniel Jacobs (28-1, 25 KOs), who is looking to make his first title defense against Caleb Truax (25-1-2, 15 KOs). Both are riding eight-bout unbeaten streaks dating back to losses to Dmitry Pirog (Jacobs) and Jermain Taylor (Truax) respectively. Jacobs is a perfect 8 for 8 in knockouts, most notably over former perennial contender Giovanni Lorenzo and Jarrod Fletcher to pick up the vacant belt. Truax is 7-0-1 (5) on his own run, beating up a who’s-who of American journeymen in his weight range and drawing with legendarily tough Ghanaian tester Ossie Duran.
