Boxing Insider Promotions closes out 2026 in Atlantic City, NJ

Seven Big Regional Bouts at the Tropicana on November 13, Tickets on Sale Now

seven professional bouts built almost entirely out of New Jersey and New York.

It is a throwback to the cards this city grew up on.

“We are bringing one last show to the Trop this year and we are stacking it

with many of the best New Jersey and New York fighters,” said Larry Goldberg,

Boxing Insider Promotions. “This is our 21st club boxing show

since 2022, at our home venue, and it is an action packed night.”

Atlantic City’s own Justin “Mr. AC” Figueroa (14-0, 11 KOs) headlines against

Luis Caraballo Ramos of Trujillo Alto, Puerto Rico (8-10-1, 8 KOs) in a

rematch of their March fight, which was ruled a no contest and settled

nothing.

Heavyweights go eight underneath. George Arias of the Bronx (19-1-1, 7 KOs)

has one loss in 21 professional fights. Joe Jones of Lynchburg, Virginia

(16-15-2, 10 KOs) brings 33 fights and has never been easy to move.

John “Bodyshot” Leonardo returns. The Manalapan Township junior featherweight

(13-1-1, 6 KOs) won a decision in June that people in this market are still

arguing about, built almost entirely on work downstairs. He meets Kevin Nunez

of Bayamon, Puerto Rico (6-4, 3 KOs) over eight.

Iman Lee of Yonkers (15-0-1, 8 KOs) has not lost in sixteen professional

fights. He faces Dominican veteran Dannis Aguero Arias (20-6, 17 KOs).

New York against New York at 144 pounds. JJ Alvarez (11-3-1) fights out of

Harlem by way of Madrid and trains fighters at Mendez Boxing. Larry Fryers

(13-8-1) comes down from Albany with 22 professional fights and 105 rounds on

him. It is the kind of club fight people circle on a card.

Brooklyn’s Koby Khalil Williams (8-1, 6 KOs) goes six at 135 against Salvatore

Di Stefano of Palermo, Sicily (4-2, 2 KOs).

And Pleasantville’s own Julio Sanchez III (5-1, 3 KOs) goes six against Skyler

Bray of Reynoldsburg, Ohio (3-3-1, 3 KOs). Sanchez came out of the

Pleasantville rec center, turned professional on a Boxing Insider card, and has

fought on this series ever since.

“There is so much talk about international boxing and what the big companies

are doing or not doing,” Goldberg said. “This reminds me of the shows of the

70s and 80s. It is all grit and for the love of the game. This is the kind of

boxing your grandfather loved. Casino ballrooms, gritty club fighters fighting

to get to the next level. Many of these fighters will move on to bigger shows

in 2027.”

Doors open at 7:00 PM at The Showroom, 3rd Floor North Tower, Tropicana

Atlantic City. The card streams free on Boxing Insider.
